All of the measurables of Herschel and LF are similar. Saying that he is better based on your recollections and opinions of yore just doesn't make sense. We can all go back and watch old games and watch them run.
Many of us have seen those games dozens of times over. The fact of the matter is you can put the films alongside each other (as has been done) and there is little or no objective difference in athletic ability.
The point that I and others are trying to make here is that LF has been as good if not better versus better opponents/athletes. And there really isn't any debate about that.

And better IS an opinion. By definition is an opinion. There are no stats ways to "prove" it.
You guys take shite as an insult when it isn't. Besides, I didn't say there's some wide gulf. I think it's VERY close.

Two things. One, when putting them next to each other, there are no "facts". It's an opinion.
Second, you are correct. The difference, if any, is small.
You realize one can hold the OPINION that one of these guys is better than the other and not think the difference is substantial, right?

I agree. His stats and performance have been very comparable.
You guys are seeing conflict where one doesn't exist. One can think that Walker was the better back without saying any of what you said is wrong.
You can't trot out stats as a sole refutation.
If that's how it worked, then we'd have to all agree that Dan Marino was a better QB than Joe Montana.
