The best RB of all time

Ĺ

I wish he came back to the Lions and stay and not retired so early and won the super bowl with the Lions one day

That's an awesome story!!

​@@mpayne8206🎉🎉🎉🎉

I would have preferred the 10 minute story! I wish you ran into him again and Thank Him for that iconic moment in your life. I hope you do get that chance again. It would mean a lot to Barry I know.

@@boogitybear2283 If I ever do, I absolutely will. To this day I still wear a Barry Sanders jersey from time to time - just doing yard work etc, not so much in public. It really has much more to do with the man/meeting him that day than the football genius. I was a hockey player & my guy was/is Steve Yzerman. I met him as well. & same thing. SO impressed by athletic ability, but more impressed by his chharacter. These were great lessons as a teenager. Very lucky to grow up where I did, when I did, with these 2 role models. Forever grateful.

I never met him but I stood near him in 1991 at the Ren Cen. His thigh was thicker than my entire torso.

Yea that cool

Truly the greatest of all time.. just wish he had more success than he did but that just shows his character.. he never complained about anything and the day he felt it was time to hang it up he did so.. he do so on his terms

Time flies

Yeah, and Barry’s records still stand after all this time. Once in a lifetime talent, man.

@@chriserdmann2477 yes sir! My favorite running back of all time and why I started playing football and played running back

And you're still less fun than the pet rock

fsegsges

@@Warden033 Less fun? Whenever Barry scored, he acted like he had common sense/home training and finished the game. All the over excessive celebrations you see today are pretty annoying.

The greatest pure runner ithat ever played

@@christwarrior8501 so basically he was a “good” nigra

Colin .Shimabukuro Amen!! Great class act

Colin, that is so well said. Thank you Barry, I would add.

I met him once, he is shy and bashful.

@@thetruth72667 k

He is also a gr8 football player

And he didn't care about the competition from Thurman Tomas.

He did the same thing with Paytons single season record

He did the same thing with Christian Okoye the last game of his rookie season.

Not to mention retiring instead of going for the NFL rushing title

let us not canonise him because he was just a man, albeit with an extraordinary skill; having babies out of wedlock is proof of that;

Yep me too and very much agree with you on him being humble.. no athlete/person is like Barry

tends to happen when your dad discredits everything you do

I see warrick dunn with that same aura

@@duypham76 I loved watching Warrick Dunn at FSU and in the pros

Walter Payton was the most humble. Therefore the man of the year award is named for him and not barry. Barry is a close second though

I couldn't agree more! When he left the way he did a small group collected money to hire a billboard on m20, almost to mt.plesant,, to say Ford family please sell to Lions, were sorry Barry

@@Brunzy1970 I’m 34. My father sat me down when I was 4 years old and basically said you’re gonna watch and be a fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers. I’m diehard, I haven’t missed a game in 25 years. I studied the game of football and the legends that proceeded it. What Sanders did, I’m not putting anyone in his category, no one. Watching him was like How the fuck are you so good.

Jim Brown was the best. Barry played in a playoff game against Green Bay and he rushed for NEGATIVE yardage. That's right he gained ZERO. The greatest? Nope. Many others I would pick. Gale Sayers, Walter Payton,Earl Campbell,etc.& Many more.

@@tylerbob4853 I don’t include Jim Brown in these debates because it’s just different eras and it’s nonsense to compare the two. But I will say and compare this. You realize the Lions teams Barry Sanders played on were so horrendously awful you may as well put a highschool offensive line on the field…ever realize why he has the most negative yardage ? Which makes this all much more satisfying to say. Barry played for the Lions…Walter Payton played on one of the greatest teams ever assembled. I broke down Barry vs Walter. Barry vs Walter Barry played 37 less games Only had 1457 yards less then him Had 776 LESS carries Averaged 5.0 per carry vs Walter 4.4 Averaged 100 yards per game to Walter 88 Andddd had 45 less fumbles 37 less games and he woulda shattered the all time record had he not retired in the prime of his career. I don’t mean to be that guy man…but just don’t even bother trying to argue my point. There is nothing to argue.

@@clifton12345 hello, interesting but Walter Payton for most of his career played on terrible teams too. Gayle Sayers played on bad teams and as far as Jim Brown not being the best why don't you talk to Barry's dad about it. Different era or not some of those older players were great. Don't forget the rules changes to help the offense and water down the game.

Without a question lol

Well duh lol

Thats better then my face of the franchise first season😂

@@dabndangle 😂😂 likewise

Yeah there's truly no doubt lol. And nothing close to it will ever happen again

yeah, I wish with all my HEART that they would have shown more of the HOF induction where John Elway says, "Mr. Sanders said he did not believe Barry Sanders was the GREATEST RUNNING BACK EVER, BUT I DO!"

Lb for lb

Was heartbreaking for me too. He was must watch television. You didn't want to miss what he would do next. Amazing the Lions never were able to put the players around Barry to go to a Super Bowl or even get close

Watching this for the first time. Waiting for the play agaisnt my Bucs where he puts John Lynch on his knees

When he retired I was Soo disappointed......his humility is sooo great that he never once complained------ about not being started in HS at running back.......about not being started ahead of THURMAN THOMAS at OU.......about his Detroit offensive line.......such a great role model for all of us

When I think of Barry Sanders, I think of what an Incredible, Humble Human Being he was! He was obviously a Tremendous Football Player! However, he impresses me the Most by the way he has lived his life and the Respect that he has for everyone he comes in contact with! He’s a Humble and Incredibly Talented Football Player who is an even better Human Being! Detroit was Lucky to have Barry on their Team for ten years! If Barry had decided to continue to play football, he would have every record in the book, PERIOD! Records didn’t mean much to Barry and he quit the NFL because he just wasn’t having that much fun anymore! It took a lot of guts to make that decision knowing he was going to disappoint so many of his fans! I have the Utmost Respect and Admiration for Barry Sanders because he did what he thought was right and he followed his Heart in the end! God Bless Him!

Exactly. Put Barry on the Cowboys and Emmitt on the Lions and Emmitt would still be chasing. Emmitt played 80 more games than Barry.

His father is why he quit..not the team. Who in the hell wants an asshole father like that

Yes he had to create things out of nothing

Emmitt smith had a Hof line to.

That team is still horrible the Bobby lane curse!

Tony Duffy well stated, the sad part is most don’t understand his peace

Hard to disagree.

That's for sure.

Payton, LT and Dickerson are better

Samuel Robert That is an opinion you are having

Samuel Robert you're insane. None of those guys come even close. Only him Brown and emmitt are in the conversation

To this day it boggles people’s minds Barry stayed and ended his whole career with the Lions of all teams in that era!

Wow imagine Barry having an actual line and a great QB too. Him and Brett and Sterling would of done a lot of damage.

When it comes to monumentally stupid draft picks, passing him up for Tony Mandarich ranks right up there with passing up Michael Jordan for Sam Bowie.

Mine too

Mine to and in my opinion the 🐐.

Mandarich was a terrible Draft choice. Barry should have been #1. It was a great draft class except for the ‘roid the Packers chose.

L

Same bruh I’m literally rewatching it, still so much better than any RB since bro..

#facts

And the fact that this superior character known as Barry Sanders.......could be divorced.......gives me hope.......I am far less a man......and divorced also........but if MR SANDERS can be divorced there is still a chance for me.

Walter Payton was best all around. And he PUNISHED defenders. Not even close.

Nobody that watches football thinks Barry was the best RB of all time. Walter Payton is easily above him. Jim Brown is above him. An argument could be made that Emmitt Smith is above him. Barry Sanders was too boom or bust and didn't play long enough to matter. He was just another Gale Sayers, another guy who is in the Hall of Fame but who aren't nearly the best due to longevity reasons.

The greatest running back

The 34 records is probably a record too!

@@efisgpr It is...Pretty much every one of the games he started he ran for 250-300 yards with 3-4 TDs.

Dark_Place Go Pokes 🍊

I ant believe people think anyone is better than him just as a pure runner lol anyone who brings up rings is stupid as hell. Rings are a TEAM accomplishment. Barry CARRIED the lions for 10 years and set records with a terrible offense. I just don’t understand how people argue against Barry. You’ll never see another human make cuts and shift like him. EVER

These stats would be very good for an entire 4 year college career, WOW!!!

Thanks for sharing that. Anyone whose pops was a roofer and taught him to work... solid dude.

Barry isn't the type of person America likes anymore. America idols self-complimenting braggarts who has never known a day of hard work in his life...see current US President for reference.

I met Barry in Nam 50 years ago, we fought in the 12th division. He never fired his riffle, just ran and dodged bullets. He's a humble man.

brett linthicum 😂

Steve Harloha I meet him at lakeside mall in like 92 or 93 he was just sitting looking at a book

I heard he has a 14 inch penis also

Barry sander could not jump over the goal line

@@francismcwiggles1262 Bruh what the heck

@@bakothegreat6986 lol what a weird comment that guy made like wtf lol but barry imo is the best running back of all time n was an underated blocker and can catch the ball but the lions had perriman, moore, and then morton during his time so they and people forget they made the playoffs in 91, 93,94,95, and 97 so 5 times in ten years is pretty damn good 4 those lions teams with no great qb

Moss is the only player I've seen play that I thought could be mentioned in the same breathe as Barry when it comes to special players. Must see TV.

Amen!!!

@Marso 13 - I know well about them. I'm talking about a different era when you had more level headed people.

@Marso 13 - I never even mentioned those names as being "level headed", you did. As for talking about those who did what you speak of, I never mentioned them either. This thread is about Barry Sanders. If you would like to talk about other football players, it is your right to do so, but I won't.

@@PabloDiablo682 right

Kwahi Leonard is one🤷🏾‍♂️

💔💔💔💝💝💝💟✝️🛐💙💙💜💙

I was looking for myself in this video because I was at the Silverdome vs the Jets when he got his 2,000 yards. Too bad the video is not clearer because I am somewhere right down near the field. I think I had 5th row on the same side the video camera pans to.

'makes defines'?

M.A.D. O.W.L. THAT! was the best qoute I have ever read about Barry Sanders.

David, you are a twit. Is your mind really that tiny?

Class.

Too bad he was a quitter

Met him at one of his son's H.S. football games in 2011. Man's as nice as they come.

No freaking fare

Exactly n that is an ache far more than the body he just was tired of it, Calvin Johnson same thing never winning that shit sucks. They're living with good health n wealth in retirement n that's a championship to them💯💯💯

I rather retire still being able to think than winning a SB and worrying about dying in my sleep

Lol nobody broke Barry Sanders spirit. This man is just a fucking cool guy who's not chasing stats he did his job and enjoyed his life and family and left at a healthy age. I think the biggest mark he left is so misconstrued.

It's hilarious to me though hearing that being a Detroit fan it's pretty sad that's our look lol it's completely not true though. Barry is a much much better man than he was a player.

Wrong. It wasn’t the losing that did it. It was that the Lions had pinned him to that contract, then dumped a bunch of their best players. Barry knew they were gonna suck, pretty much the remainder of that time. His risk of injury would also skyrocket. He even admitted that’s why he quit. But, not GOAT either, He was only GOHT (his)

Real live

Likewise

Probably 4 or 5 rings

EXACTLYYYYY he would have had larry allen and allllll

Cowboys o-line in 90s was very short lived. Probably only a 3-5 year period when they were dominant.

@@RR-vu3ol And Barry could of worked miraculous things with it. No matter how short lived.

He wouldnt even need the O-Line if he had Daryl Johnston

I think you commented in the wrong video. Walter Payton is in another one.

Ryan A I agree

Give him the o-line Emmitt had he gets 20,000 yards easy

I always think about what if Gayle Sayers had not gotten hurt or if Berry & Jim stayed in the game...u can go on & on ...cause i like the big brewer back, Earl Campbell, Franco Harris, Zonker, H. Walker, the games has seen so many great athletes...

@@goomaguy2883 herbert walker is a freak athlete, didnt have quite the natural touch and footwork as sanders.. But he could probably make an nfl squad at 50-60 years old.

@More Cowbell(open): 20:44. *BOOM!*

ES always told it how it is

When you believe in G-d it's not that hard. If you don't it's impossible

@@DA-is9sj You obviously don’t know many Buddhists 😊

Personality type and upbringing.

He's the perfect role model

I see ur a Barry Sanders fan and Pusha-T fan, good taste

props for the Daytona artwork

I will only agree with that statement when I know of a better running back. Capisce?-)

👊🍻

i agree, coming from a gators fan.

@TadTod27 • I feel you 🐻 fan. Walter was all that, but I'm a Detroiter. Peace

@@TheSavageJetdiRustySpooner I wish that I was young enough to watch him. Best back ever.

You must have never seen " The Tyler Rose", a.k.a. Earl Campbell

You misspelled Walter Payton.

​@Chris-ey8zf you misspelled Barry

Sucks imagining things like that. Us Cowboys fans feel that way about Jimmy Johnson. Feel we could've won 4 in a row but it was not meant to be. Barry fulfilled his destiny and accepted his fate. Maybe you should as well

Any GOAT, be it football, baseball, golf, basketball, hockey or any sport or game. The GOAT isn’t defined unless they possess the following: #1- work ethic #2- talent #3- the right team (support) #4- longevity We can imagine, predict and claim all we want. If “this had happened”, “if he was on this team”, “if only he wasn’t injured”. GOAT’s find themselves, put themselves or create the position to be the GOAT. Fact is, we don’t get to vote who’s the GOAT, stats cast the vote. If the vote was who was the most elusive, it would be Barry. Most speed, Bo. Most punishing, Jim or Earl. Fact is, Emmitt is the all time leading rusher today, he is the GOAT.

@@waltershattenkirk3087 Most yards does not equal best ever (GOAT); it just means most yards. If I had 1 game to pick one running back in his prime (or any year when we are talking about Barry), I would pick Barryover anyone else. Period. That's what the greatest of all time means. To say Emmitt is the GOAT is like saying Frank Gore is a better running back then LaDainian Tomlinson when you can easily see, that was never the case. In case you want to rebuttal that, I want to remind you that Gore has 1 season of more than 1,250 yards in a season.

Greg Wright I respectfully disagree. And if you go back and read the entirety of my post, you will see i consider the definition of GOAT to be highly subjective. You are defining GOAT as the most talented, in the case of Barry, I agree with you. He was a beast, unfortunately, after 10 years in the league, he said I’m done. Emmitt on the other hand, hitched his wagon to an up and coming winner. GOATS don’t hitch their wagon to loosing teams, if they do, they fall into the “what if/only if” category. Barry may be your favorite, he isn’t the GOAT. One more thing, my favorite NFL player, bar none, is Marino. The most talented passer the league has ever seen. Dan was the biggest fish in a small pond. Neither Dan or Barry fought to change their circumstance. For that reason, neither can be considered GOAT.

It's amazing to me why so many douche bags always feel like in order to talk about how great Sanders was they have to diminish Emmitt Smith's career accomplishments. Barry's highlights and stats speak for itself. Why do you have to disparage someone else in order to build up another?

I'm a raider's fan, but in my opinion Barry is the 🐐, and my favorite running back of all time.

Its amazing how humble he was.

And his spinning move was incredible

That don't make him a hero...By handing the football back after a touchdown made him a professional!! I"m tired of people calling over payed cry baby athletes heroes

@@chucks_88 read again, my friend.

@David Martin he actually did, I just edited it and changed it from hero to professional.. But Barry Sanders will always be a hero to me.

Very much so

Literally, because he had a sucky team around him. He is probably the greatest back of all time.

He had good players around him. Herman Moore was one of the best wide receivers in the league. Brett Perriman was decent as well. They did not have a steady strong QB though and defensively they were outmatched by Green Bay in their division and by Washington, SF, and Dallas over the years unfortunately.

drvn8 Yup. Herman Moore was that man. Barry didn’t have a very Good line or QB which had a lot to do with that line and just goes to show you why Barry is The 🐐

@@CSDonohue11 Barry was great, but I'm always told by people in the older generation that Jim Brown was the best football player they'd ever seen. Barry was my favorite running back.

@@CSDonohue11 the lions always had good players are barry sanders, Herman Moore, Brett perriman, Johnnie Morton, Chris spielman, Mark Carrie, Mel Grey Robert porcher, Luther elliss, Jerry Ball, Dave Sloan, Tracy Scroggins, Willie Clay, bennie blades, good corners like Corey Raymond and Ryan McNeil. Lomas Brown who was 7 time pro bowl and Kevin Glover who was a 3 time pro bowler You can make a case during the 90s the lions were one of the more talents rosters in the NFL. for some strange reason the lions were just a bad road team it also doesn't help that the Lions played musical chairs with the quarterbacks a lot of times.

@Droppin_sik_Beats Hell yea, he some of his best games against Tampa for sure. I can think of few famous plays off rip against the Bucs.

No one ever moved the way he did. One in a billion.

There is no argument man. He is the best ever!! From a Cowboys fan.

I second that. He's the greatest of all time in my opinion. I was very upset when he retired and still think of the what ifs but it's not about me, it's about him and how he felt.

VERY WELL SAID.

Allow ppl to be who they wana b.

Nyz free thinker what about Calvin Johnson

Nyz free thinker sad thing was Michael Vick could have been as awe inspiring but we will never know because he was an idiot when he was young

No. To either of those.

Before Barry, only one man: Gail Sayers

Absolutely 💯 💯 💯

He was the only thing you had for 9 or 10 years. That's not a slight on y'all, it's the truth though. I pulled for you for a long time to do right, but ya didn't.

BARRY SANDERS was the best thing that happened to that city... There was a time when the policy was clear... It was almost disgusting....blaming one side for 3 buildings falling at BREAKNECK SPEED... SEEMS THAT EVERYONE IS EVIL THQT READS

In a sport where I watched most any game that was on, the only other thing other than Thanksgiving, I watched y'all was Barry. Ever. Sorry, but Calvin Megatron wasn't enough.

@@Spthomas47 and the Lions wasted his career also!

@@Spthomas47 they did have Herman and Brett!

@Kevin Prima you clown stop pasting this exact lame comment

*Elusive

ummm.."elusive" not "illusive". Just saying.

Think you mean elusive.

Barry Sanders is the best running back of all time.......

Of course, he's wrong.

Applies to prime Mike Tyson too. Not that he would knock out NFL RB's of all generations, it applies in boxing.

Me too. Big Cowboy fan as well. Barry was definitely the MAN.

It just shows how sorry of a franchise the Lions are. I think any other team in the NFL would have easily built a Super Bowl championship team around this guy over a ten year period, but not Detroit.

The Lions are still no where near winning a SB in 2020

If Detroit had the best team, they would get screwed by the referees. Their game with GB this year they didn't even try to hide it.

@@jocamadad - Yes, the Detroit Lions Ownership failed Barry Sanders miserably. They had of the best running back of all time but they were too pathetic too damn incompetent to put the right Management teams and Coaches in place to support him. Barry Sanders was the kind of player who could have attracted other high caliber players, he should have been the center piece of a team built around him ...... he's that damn special!!!

Truth. I was a Dallas and Pittsburgh fan all throughout the 90's. Barry was always the best, hands down. His football potential was robbed by the lions.

No shit!

His father was a piece of shit. What are you talking about

Awesome dude.
