I think Barry was the best running back in NFL history, but his legacy will always be tainted by the Bobby Ross situation. If he had stuck around for a couple more years, we wouldn't even be having this debate, like The Sink said.

There wasn't anything he couldn't do. He had amazing "downhill" speed, great lateral moves, and was as hard to tackle as anyone I've ever seen play. Once he got into the open field, he wasn't going down.
