If “>” means “weighs more,” then o.k.

Sproles


Reminds me of this guy. This isn’t a spectacular run, but tell me that doesn’t look like CEH. Very similar build. Sproles might be a touch faster.

CEH is definitely a better 3rd down back when it comes to blocking and receiving.

Honestly, he runs a lot like Derrius Guice. Great vision and quickness. Patience when necessary, but surprising power and the ability to make guys miss in tight space. The ONLY difference, and it is substantial, is that Guice had break-away speed whereas CEH doesn't.

Barry Sanders was the greatest open field RB ever. He was not a complete back and therefore can't be the greatest RB ever. His blocking was terrible and he came out on 3rd down often.

What i thought was completely obvious, i was NOT being serious about talent. The purpose of the post is to draw attention to the ignorance floating around that CEH’s size is a negative. Those that can’t figure that out didn’t read the post or are not too bright.

I didn't give you an up or down vote, as I understood what you did there and the rest of tRant already lambasted you.

With that said you should know by now that there are a few things tRant does not tolerate:
1. Sarcasm
2. Extreme negativity or positivity
3. Bragging about wealth
4. Bragging about sex
5. Bragging about watching the game in some exotic location
6. Mentioning a female without posting pics
7. Claiming to have an inside source
8. Criticism of current recruits and commits
9. Having below average defense for LSU's standards
10. Being acceptive of said below average defense
11. Posting a new thread about a topic that has been discussed even if it was years ago
12. Asking why Alabama recruits UHigh so well
13. Asking what channel the game will be on, or any other question that is easily answered by using Google
14. But most of all, misleading or deceptive thread titles

ETA:
15. Poor grammar, poor spelling, or the improper use of a homynym
16. Posting topics on the wrong board

Emmitt was a better back than Sanders. Sanders had the moves but Smith did everything well - blocking, pass catching, tough yards, getting the first down etc. Smith also played better in big games while Sanders wilted.

Let’s not get carried away. CEH is not better than Barry Sanders. It could be argued that Barry Sanders is the greatest running back in the history of the game; college or pro. Obviously, that is a matter of opinion. However, he is in the discussion.

Well, to prove how special he was he pretty much did the same thing in the NFL...for the LIONS. I'd say he went up against great athletes and whipped 'em week in and week out.
