Not just is he the best all-time back, if you want to compare apples to oranges the guy might be the best all-time NFL player.
you could make a case that he was the best athlete period

Brown averaged 14 TD's a year and plus when comparing him to Walter, Barry, and Emmit you have to look at the fact that he never played 16 games in a season
