He deserves the HOF because of a 2000 yd season and he's the greatest playoff running back ever, look at his playoff stats
Facts greatest playoff rb ever
Fun fact he is from San Diego California
If anyone thinks that it was just his line that was the main reason for him having so much success, watch his first Superbowl against the Packers, the announcers can't stop talking about how the Denver line is one of the smallest in the NFL; and how the key match up was going to be the Packers HUGE defensive line, one of the best in the NFL at the time. If an offensive line was so critical to his success, Emmitt would have rushed for 2,000 with that stacked line he had. I know that the offensive line is a huge part of the run game, the Cowboys now-a-days can put anyone in the back field and get 1,000 yards out of them; but pushing beyond just 1,000 yards and getting 21 touchdowns in a season, 2,008 yards AND being so great in the playoffs against the best teams, it says something about the player.
I think TD is one of the best I ever saw, but the point about how small the Denver O-line is a little off. Shanahan's O-line wasn't a bunch of big guys but that was by design. He wanted smaller, more nimble guys that fit into his running offense. It was due to the scheme he ran. It was a primary, counters & secondary counters that they ran off of limited formations. It required guys that weren't as big, but could move a little better to get to their spots.
The Denver O-Line was by design efficient, agile, and quick. That is why Denver could literally put anyone in the backfield and they would get 1000 yards by the end of the season, as evidence of what happened when Davis was lost to injury. Terrell Davis was so good, that is why he was able to reel off 2000 yards…
Emmitt Smith had one of the best O-Lines in NFL history, even he never came close to 2000 yards and he had plenty of opportunities to reach it. Terrell Davis could have had two 2000 yards seasons, However, chose to sit out the last game and a half the season prior to achieving it. The season he did accomplish the feet, was more of an expectation rather than an aspiration that year…
…
BUILT DIFFERENT
Amen
Davis’s O line is definitely the reason he was so good only Barry was great without a good line
I grew up in Colorado during 1996-1999 when they won the Super Bowl 2 times in a row and I'm gonna tell you something, that Mile High Salute was DIFFERENT!
He pretty much was a super hero for few years. He was a fun watch, one of the few that could do something extraordinary at any moment.
Certainly deserves it, Congratulations TD.
Terrell Davis doesn't tear his ACL he shatters the all time rushing record. He was that damn good.
Imagine if Davis could've played a longer career.... Imagine the broken records. (#30) 👍
Man I'm tearing up, he's the main reason I wanted to play football and became a broncos fan😭😭
Jean Michael I feel ya. I was obsessed with him and Barry as a kid.
Go broncos go donkeys
He did this for an entire generation
Yes him and elway are Literally the reason I’m a broncos fan to this day 25 years later ❤
He was my favorite RB growing up, emmitt was good, but this dude was my fav.
Those were great years. Td was incredible. A nice guy. Worked hard, and earned everything. That guy was the best I ever saw at one cut and go. Drift drift and explode. What most forget is he took off the second half in many games. Broncos we’re blowing people out. I know they were saving him but imagine if he had just 60 more rushes. Maybe 2300 yrd maybe more. Still it was a great year.
Absolutely loved TD!! This video brought back some awesome memories of growing up, sitting inside a nice warm house in Colorado during the winter - watching the Broncos win. I really hope that TD's migraines weren't a symptom of some larger issues due to concussions. I don't want to hear another horror story...
Finally he gets in, mile high salute to the great TD30 wish his career didn't end the way it but still thanks for everything dawg. #TD30HallOfFame2017 #BroncoNation4ever
How neat to have been there for so many of those wonderful run by TD. Those were the years. So very much fun. I salute TD and congratulate him as a Hall of Famer for the Broncos. Well done. Thanks for the memories.
Denver needs to bring back the salute
We should retire his number.
The broncosfb718 Yeah but with Roger Goodell turning the meaning of the National Football League to the No Fun League it's very unlikely that we Bronco fans will see a revival of the Mile High Salute has players can only Salute towards the stands in respect of the Armed Forces and not at each other.
I think the Mile High Salute died with Mile High Stadium unfortunately. It's just not the same.
Sanders does it
Phillip Lindsay is bringing it back
Very rare mix of great Power, speed, vision, decision making, one-cut explosiveness; fleet of foot with that second gear.
Just goes to show how overrated 40 times are!
Top 6 running back in NFL history.
TD is an exception imho. He had a relatively short career because of horrible injuries. But when he was fit he was unstoppable. And I think it was his absolute consistent dominant performance when he was healthy that eventually got him in the HoF.
If Terrell had not blown out his knee he would of been the best running back to ever play the game.
Terrell Davis, the perfect mix of speed and power. What would have his numbers been at retirement, had he not gotten that horrendous leg injury?? My guess...Top 5 running back of all time, in yards and TDs. He was just, that damn good.
Denver had been to 4 Super Bowls and lost them all...until they got Terrell Davis, then it was 2 in a ROW!! I'm not a Denver fan but I AM a TD fan. The guy is a class and when he was at his peak, there was none that could do it like him.
Terrell Davis is like Jerry Rice. Both were not great 40 yard dash runners but you never see either one getting caught from behind. Davis was a BEAST!!!!
I’ve literally been thinking the same exact thing. He looks nothing like a 4.72 40 yd dash
Power, vision, decisive, quick feet
Tough to bring down in the trenches or in the open field
Utilized his blockers brilliantly
Textbook example of Game Speed
Smart, tough player 🫡
and that cutback ability DAMN 🔥
5:25 that was dirty
The master of the cutback.. HOF TD #30 forever.
TD did a lot of things exceptionally. He was extremely strong. He was smart, he used his blockers well, he had great vision, and he had better speed than he got credit for. What I thought stood out, was how calm he ran and how he stayed on his feet. His balance was incredible. The Broncos drafted an RB in the 1st round in 1982 (Gerald Willhite). He was a great athlete (could do backflips) but he could not stay on his feet, so he never became a featured back. TD was incredible.
2:32 that was art right there
One of the best RB in history
Had 4 decent seasons? Nah....
Absolutely!
@@MaynardGKrebs-gv4vy yes he was.
Definitely the MVP of both Super Bowl years for the Broncos. Sure, Elway had a career worthy of his HOF, but TD and the OL were the reason for the SB victories. His ability to see the cutback lane and be through it was unparalleled, but the little thing that highlight reels don't show: He was almost never dropped for a loss. The other teams would stack 8 men in the box, and Denver would just run the exact same play up the middle 3 times in a row. The D would hit TD in the backfield and he would carry them for 3-4. They'd run it again, he'd do the same. They'd run it again and he'd break it for 20. He had power, vision, speed, and a quick cut. Saquan Barkley is the first modern RB I've seen that even comes close.
I feel like he was so good at spotting weaknesses in the defense
Yeah amazing vision and decisiveness
Used his blockers brilliantly and really quick feet for his size.
His 40 time was only 4.72
But look at Jerry Rice 🐐
1 of most under rated tailback of all time
29 Griffith underrated big time
One of the best fbs
MY TOP 5 FAVORITE RBs OF ALL TIME
Man among boys
Running backs were different back then. I’ve been a cowboys fan my whole life. I have a TD 30 jersey.
Yeah it’s all passing now no power run game. I like a mix
Adrian Peterson was probably the last true RB similar to TD
Derrick Henry maybe a bit
I feel like the offensive line blocking was just way better in that era
Career cut short due to injury. He was a beast.
My favourite player of all time
The best all around running back I've ever seen...... he had vision, skill, trucking, blocking, he could catch the ball like a WR, break the big play at any time. That's what separates him from the Barry Sanders, Emmit Smith and the Thurman Thomas's of the NFL world. It will be a long while before we see another like him if we ever do.
He was like the modern day Jim Brown
@@moheganson yes........yes he was
Really don’t like the Broncos but man he was a special, special player. Not top notch speed /athleticism but vision/ reading blocks was A+++
Yeah, 40 times are overrated especially if you’re as powerful and decisive as him plus his quick feet and cutbacks 🤯
Textbook definition of GAME SPEED
Such a good rb.
First time seeing this man’s highlights
the real 'beast mode'
Crazy play 6 years and made the hall great player coming fr a Raiders fan
"Davis doesn't have the speed to make it in the NFL".
🤣🤣🤣
That zone blocking line he has was amazing too. He was running away from DBs and has them LBs on skates. Very impressive.
I remember on Madden 96 SNES this dude couldn’t be stopped for some reason.
Davis was one of the last great RB in Tha Game! # Soldier
His offensive line created massive holes. Fun player to watch
Also TD only played in the first in a lot of games with like 160 and 2 Td's in the first half
Terrell Davis is the big reason why Denver won their first two Super Bowls and John Elway has those tings is because of Terrell Davis. Denver finally had a feature back and didn't need a committee of 3 to 4 running backs during the season. Where the Broncos in Super Bowls finally had a running game AND a defense that didn't fall apart and give up 40 plus points in a Super Bowl. Sadly that ACL tear prevented Davis from having a longer NFL career the next season. Just a freak accident after trying to tackle on an interception and getting rolled up by his lineman. He would have had over 10,000 yard if that were the case.
A pleasure to watch
The person that disliked this video is cam newton BECUASE we all know how much he "loves" the broncos after the Superbowl last lear
Nobody can beat the 1997..1998 Broncos, Nobody in History..we would have worn em all down with our unstoppable running attack! (Old School Hard Knocks Football)!
That o line is dominant
He pushed the dude back down when he was trying to get up after the kickoff tackle!
NFL has the best channel on TH-cam
Terrel Davis > Zeke
didnt you just say...you know what L throwing up random comments for attention
Unbiased Bucs Fan ikr
Odell Beckham Jr. #Odeezy #13Hunnit #BreakinRecords hater
Well no duhh
It was zeke first season
Low Top wow this isn't obvious at all
I’m a bills fan. But first a football fan and a running back fan. I’ve watched Payton Lewis sanders smith Thomas and every other badass rb since the 80s. Terrell is just about as close to bo Jackson as you will ever see
No he’s not lol
The Mile High Salute
Tbe cutback at 5:26 was dirty 😂
Why tf is everyone comparing a an all-time great to Zeke after one year 😂 😂 #keephating
Treyfer23 X88 neither is a all time great
+Tom Brady Shady If TD isn't an all time great neither is Tom Brady
lul zeke gonna have more suspensions than 1k seasons.
That doesn't make any sense tom is the goat at his position while td ain't even top 5 don't compare the 2
GoPatriots#barrythegoat#tomthegoat#kobethegoat #100 Yes compare the two. TD played for 6 years and within those years he ran for over 6K yards, 65 TD's two time super bowl champ and SB32 MVP.. all in just 6 shorts years. Brady's first 6 looked very similar. If TD's career were as long at Brady's, he would POSSIBLY be greatest of all time. Imagine the rep that Brady would have if he only played 6 years.. He probably wouldn't even be a top 10 of all time.
It's the back in me who understands them 😊
May I use some of these clips in a video Im making?
Don’t forget about the Offensive LINE!
Amazing group of people.Ya cuz
But that line is as unstoppable as TD. Add Jon in the mix.
😢it’s over.
Davis is the reason Elway is not viewed like Marino.
I also saw a pretty darn good O line.
MILE HIGH SALUTE
I bought him off the auction house in Madden and he's a God he's so fast and he breaks every single tackle
Terrell Davis' regular season numbers alone didn't get him in the HOF. Look at this postseason numbers. No running back in the history of football has ever put up anything close to resembling those numbers. For example, Marshawn Lynch had an awesome 2014 postseason: 318 yards in 3 games at 5.0 ypc - those are elite numbers! In 1998 in 3 games, Terrell Davis went for 468 yards and 3 tds at 6.0 ypc. That doesn't even take TD's 1997 postseason into account.
83 Marcus Allen had the greatest playoffs in a season by a RB. John Riggins in the strike year of 82 had more productive numbers
@@howardcosell2022 Davis's '98 postseason performance (three games) is comparable to Allen's in '83 (three games), although Allen's was superior -- similar rushing yards in fewer attempts, more receiving yards, more TDs. Riggins's '82 postseason (four games) is a lot like Davis's in '97 (four games) -- 5% more rushing yards (but 21% more attempts), while Davis had twice as many TDs and a few more touches in the passing game. But the point is that Allen and Riggins never matched either of their singular postseason performances. Davis had back-to-back postseasons that were comparable to two of the greatest single postseasons ever, from two different HOFers.
@@markvincent1011 Huge when you have a John Elway at QB compared to Theismann and Plunkett
Yes
If not for injuries he could have been the greatest ever
This is what some of those Nebraska RB’s like Ajman Green and Lawrence Phillips could’ve been. AP was the last true power back. Derrick Henry plays like this but not as quick or explosive or the vision
It’s just a passing league now 🙄
Every 3rd and one and too many running QBs
I miss this balanced attack with great blocking
Old School
Must’ve been fun watching Jim Brown
They left off many of his best runs. Smh. Salute to one of the goats!
The definition of Workhorse !
I don't think dude had many weaknesses in his game. All around back.
You could see him getting noticeably better over time, too bad an injury ended his career.
That final play they show is hard to watch. TD wouldve been one of the all time best to ever play.
Everyone check out marmalade video by Macklemore, I helped inspire that song. Big W to Beastmode on that video
TD was a 🐎. Just a shame he got hurt. If Elway was still playing I don't think he would have sustained the knee injury he got on that interception.
John elway and his chariot 😂
Please tell me yall caught drunk John Madden at 4:15 LOL
LT ⚡️> TD..
Thank Thank Thank Thank Every for God Madden sincerely yours
Back when NFL ACTUALLY WAS FOOTBALL and not a league about flags every damn play. Congrats Davis!
Terrell Davis the only running back that ive seen got faster with age lol im si serious
Whats with all the short runs
This is why sterling sharpe should be in
NFL gameday 99
This man deserves to be in the HoF. If he played longer he would be top 10 in all major rush stats, and in his short career he carried Elgay's pathetic ass to 2 SB rings
Elway lead 3 incredibly weak Broncos teams in the 80s to Super Bowls. He lost them, but those teams were terrible. Dude was a miracle worker.
Also, if TD played longer, the Broncos would probably have 5 rings by now.
The Sphinx Elway was a magic man. We are greatfull to have had him
RedAlertSteve _ Moon>>> Elgay
Moon can't touch elway.. Moon is barely even top 10
You don't deserve that Broncos pfp
This man want from a hall of fame to people calling him a clown because of his prediction on the packers.
Thank Goodness My Name Is AKA broncos
Imagine Davis with emit smiths o line the cowboys would have never lost in postseason
Easy to run when the offensive line is diving at the knees of the defense at the snap.
BRIAN WESTBROOK 2
Hall of gamer for sure he would had three sb rings if. Denver didn't choke against the jaguars in 96
I'm a first ballot hall of Famer
damn injuries
LOL..Terrell Davis??? Kurt Warner??? Jason Taylor?? This Hall of Fame class was like a giant middle finger to Terrell Owens. There is no way in hell you will convince me ANY of those 3 has a better Hall of Fame resume.
TD is easily better than TO, no hate to TO but TD just earned it more than TO. Nearly 9k rushing yards in 6 seasons and 65 total TDs. a 2k rushing 21 TD season. SB MVP 2 time SB champ.
LOL what? TD didn't even get 8K rushing yards much less nearly 9k
TO was 8th all time in catches, 2nd all-time in receiving yards, and 3rd all-time in receiving TD's 5th all-time in total TD's. Davis career rushing numbers are nowhere near the top of the list. Really it's his postseason career that got him in. But his overall body of work does not stack up to TO's.
Terrell Owens is a first-ballot HOFer. No ifs, ands, or buts.
I'm a Broncos fan, and I DO think TD deserved to be in the HoF... But he also deserved multiple ballots- he has SO few games played. TD had a stellar career for only playing four healthy seasons. Two rings, a SB MVP and NFL MVP, 3x Pro Bowler, 2x Offensive Player of the Year, a 2000 yd season (despite missing 8 quarters), and the all-time franchise leader at RB for the Broncos.
TD was BY FAR and I mean 100% BY FAR a 1st ballot HOF. He was 1 hell of a player and injuries cut him short. TD stays healthy and plays another 4-5 years in his prime he shatters the all time rushing record. He was an all around fantastic player. His performance in the playoffs alone speak for themself. TD was twice the player TO ever was and he was a team guy...TO, not so much. TO is a HOF now but TD was incredible.
He accomplished all of those stats in essentially 4 years. Plus 1100 yards and 12 TD in 3 playoff appearances (seasons)...get out of here
28-3
So if he got in when is Corey Dillon getting in?
Corey wasn't the most dominant playoff RB of all time. That is why he isn't getting in.
8,887 yards, 65 TDs, Two time SB champ, SB 32 MVP. All in 6 years
Add league MVP to that. TD was an absolute beast!
@@andys3035no he didn’t
@@jbounds829 He was league MVP in 98. What are you talking about?
2 of those years were post-injury too.
Short career but who cares
Lifelong Raider fan here, I hated this guy as a kid. Lol
Those old uniforms with white jerseys and baby blue helmets are fire. 🔥
Davis was so good. Dude deserves the Hall of Fame and thankfully got it
Beast for the Broncos
Alex's Sports News yo man I watch your channel keep it up man. Thanks for keeping me informed
Right there with Barry
I don’t think he deserved it but
@@GLA45Amg716good thing you don't get a vote you're ignorant af
