that is probably why he got fewer carries ....

his body just can't handle 200+ carries at this point

I loved the song he did about Syracuse in his rear view mirror.

Look, Etienne is a lot swifter running back, but do your homework. Syracuse played 3 fewer regular-season games(7-2).

Walter Payton > Emmitt Smith > Jim Brown.

Brown and Smith ran behind two phenomenal lines in the NFL. Smith plodded along for about 40 yards a game in the twilight of his career just to beat Walter.

Payton only missed one game and did most of his work behind poor lines, and he still had plenty of gas left in the tank when he hung it up.

Hopefully Etienne is in that conversation one day.

I don't think Jim Brown was even the best running back to wear number 44 at Syracuse University, did any of you see Ernie Davis play?

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

couldn't agree more. Two other ones I would put in there


Sep 9, 2019, 3:41 PM [ in reply to Re: Jim Brown vs Etienne, no contest ]

as far as being my favorites to watch were Barry Sanders and Earl Campbell.Football Heaven right there.

Payton my GOAT, but Barry Sanders worthy of mention with those 3 (and only equal IMO with Payton and Sayers for highlight runs). Like Brown, he walked away while still near top of his game.

I doubt anyone on this board would be able to go one on one with Jim Brown in his prime.
