re: Cecil Collins vs Kevin Faulk

Cecil Collins was an incredibly gifted runner with ultra-elite talent in that regard. He accomplished next to nothing. Faulk was a less gifted but still outstanding runner

Faulk was still a very gifted runner. He just didn't have the size or power. However, he was extremely illusive, and this allowed him to be an even bigger factor in other areas of the game.

So in other words, while Collins may have been the better true running back, I would argue that Faulk was a better overall football player.
