Herschel Walker....I Can Still Play

Bo Jackson was the greatest talent at RB the world has ever seen.

It isn't even debatable to me.
 
HE was awesome, but..... He's got nothing but highlights.. I still would have loved to see Barry behind a line like the Cowboys had.

Barry would have still killed drives at crucial times by refusing to take the yards in front of him. As a running back he was everything people hate about Tony Romo, a playmaker that makes stupid plays and doesn't show up in the playoffs.

True that. Faster and stronger than Herschel, but also able to turn on a dime like Barry Sanders. Sanders had nothing anywhere close to Jackson's speed or power though, and relied on offensive systems that spread the defense.

If you count durability as a part of talent, though, Jackson is below Sanders.

If you count durability Emmitt and Payton run away with it (see what I did there?)
