Super bowls matterFor RBs?


When you are the Super Bowl mvp - yea.

Von Miller’s strip sack of Newton won a SB, and probably sealed Miller’s HOF ticket.

Being great in a SB matters. If CMAC is a super bowl mvp this year, pencil him in for Canton

Other than the first three years of his NFL career when he was a pretty average NFL, I agree.

Von Miller would’ve been a HOFer without a Super Bowl ring, IMO.

Aren't you the same guy who just said he should get in based on his *high school* career? Superbowls are at least NFL games.
I hear you

And yes that was me

I stand with that

Also Derrick Henry needs to be recognized as one of the best 10 RBs of all time.

I think anyone who disagrees is an idiot.

Not quite top 10. But you are a Henry homer cause he went to Bama.

Walter Payton, LaDanian Tomlinson, Barry Sanders, Gale Sayers, Emmitt Smith, Jim Brown, Marshall Faulk, Eric Dickerson, OJ Simpson, Adrian Peterson, Earl Campbell, Curtis Martin and Terrell Davis. There are more.

All better than Derrick Henry.

Chill.

his running back style is of a dying breed unfortunately, nothing better than watching an awesome bellcow slowly demoralize a defense. gonna enjoy watching while I can

I think that’s part of the secret Tennessee has been finding success with. Defenses are built to stop pass first offenses now. They’ve been run first throughout Derrick Henry’s entire career.

You don’t see anymore true 43 or 34 defenses anymore. There are more defensive backs and undersized, fast edge rushers now than ever before.
