re: Who thinks Emmitt Smith is the best running back ever?

For my money I'll take Emmitt. dude could do it all. He wasn't the fastest, yet you constantly saw him breaking long touchdown runs, wasn't the strongest, yet you saw him always fall forward for the extra yard. Wasn't the shiftiest but nobody seemed to get a clean shot on him very often. He rarely fumbled or missed a game to injury. He played hurt and played in BEAST MODE. Did it for a long time. Did it when it counted and was a WINNER.
