This guy is so underrated, I never really hear people talk about him despite how good he was.
I mean, he is in the Hall of Fame.....
@@zumadude1879 finaly
Wdym he’s talked about on ESPN google safari everywhere lol I’m wearing his jersey right now lmao
Underrated? I have never herd anyone Talk Bad about Him. All i hear is How amazing He was. Hes not Underrated for shit. The dudes in the Hall of Fame. Not NFL Fans Fault That Colts Fans Dont know how to show support for There Best Runningback ever.
FACTS..OMM
Before that knee injury he was Damn near unstoppable. He was just as good as a receiver as he was as a running back where he was equally as unstoppable.
Speed power agility hands, wants that smoke, had everything, no weakness in his game, much respect
He got in he got out never been in trouble never was a distraction never was a bad teammate jus a classy guy that came to play day in and day out head down and balled out ..looked up and now he in the hall of fame 🙌🏾 go canes baby! From Gold Teeth To a Gold Jacket 🧥 I Love Em EJ the man
Your judgement of peoples' character was way off on this joker. As of 3/3/2022, there is a warrant out for his arrest for failure to appear. He's a chicken shit,a dumb ass chicken shit.
One of the greatest RBs I've ever seen
Before injury after that he was top 10
THERE’S FINALLY AN EDGERRIN JAMES HIGHLIGHT REEL BY THROWBACK
Yessir!! Dude was a beast!
@@seanjohn2876 98 ucla
Let’s be real most colts fans know if my man didn’t have that knee injury he prolly be top 5 rushing all time but still one of the smoothest and best juking backs ever ! Been an honor watching you
What year did he have the knee injury?
@@Respectedthoroughly I believe that was before he went to Arizona
@@Respectedthoroughly 2001
I agree and Im from NE...James was an absolute NEXT COMING level BEAST for those 1st 2-3 seasons b4 the injury...Was still very good after it but had definitely lost something...
@@dp233332 Lost some speed. Turned into a power back.
1 of the Unsung RBs in NFL History
Size, toughness, power, quick feet, agility, balance, hands, blocking and enough speed to run away from DBs. Edge was one of the most complete RBs in league history.
As a die hard giants fan i must admit that hes one of my all time fav
Yes. Love how he use to cut.
@@Maal7432 For real. Sharp and clean cuts, like we weighed 20lbs. less.
216
Those Miami running backs were built differently back then. James, Gore, McGahee, Thomas, Davenport, and even Portis were all amazingly productive pros.
I mean everyone coming out of Miami in the 2000s was built different
@T.R.U. Louisianimal completely agree. Amazing one cut slasher of a running back. Was an amazing fit in the Broncos offense of the 2000s.
It's all about the 🙌
Gore McGahee & Portis were all on the same team to. Correct me if I'm wrong look that up.
How do you decide if your in college on that offense..
@@dereklee778 good eye. The three of them were on the 2001 roster and averaged over 4.0 yards per carry a piece. That 2001 roster was loaded.
If anyone could immediately follow in the footsteps of another Hall of Famer on the same team, it was Edgerrin James.
Remember 98 vs ucla? Look up highlights
@@ericpackers1700 i remember watching that game. I'm a canes fan. It was a fantastic game.
This guy is such an underrated tailback
Tell me about it 😉.
RB
Not rlly lol
Jeff Saturday (Colts Center) should be in the Hall of Fame. One of the most dominant centers I have ever seen. At his apex he was pretty much invincible and had no flaws in his game. His 2006 Superbowl run during 4 playoff games he was invincible. Did not even lose 1 snap vs Bears ,Patriots, Chiefs and Ravens and had 1 nasty pancake on Vince Wilfork.
One of the best running back in nfl history
I remember in ESPN 2k5 football. He couldn't be stopped. As well as my boy Priest Holmes
Right I won like 6 Superbowls on 2k with The colts and edge had a 2000 yard season in one of them
One of my favorite RB. Used this man a lot in madden
That stretch handoff play my favorite him and Peyton
@@demariwillis3308 yup always used them in my franchise mode on Madden and 2k for years
Most underrated player ever I wish more players and young players knew about him and his story
Edgerrin James. The Best Running Back In Indianapolis Colts History Since His Debut In 1999 (Sorry Marshall Faulk)
He was the truth them first 3 years
Eric Dickerson
@@georgemcfly3482 fuck no
The Miami Hurricanes have their own wing in the hall of fame 🙌🏾
Who's the best player in that wing?
@@kasiwoodall3356 that’s a good question I couldn’t even say, my favorite is Ed Reed personally
So many to choose from. Ray Lew? The Playmaker? Ed Reed? Big Vince Wilfork? What a legacy those guys have.
@@mysterion5136 not to mention there’s more to come, Andre Johnson and Reggie Wayne soon
@@freshprinceshakur4596 Frank Gore going to be the biggest.
The thing about Edge is that he put together a Hall of Fame career, and yet, he was never really the same player since the injury in '01. As crazy as it is, he might have been way better. He really was the perfect all-around running back. He had great power, speed, agility, ball security, vision, hands, and pass blocking.
Exactly! He had to re- invent his game and style In how he played, became smarter player!
Playing Madden back in the day, I see why my younger brother always picked the Colts. I got rocked everytime.
The reason I became a Canes/Colts fan. All-time favorite RB
One of the smartest tailbacks I have ever seen. And I have seen a lot.
This guy needs "A Football Life" episode
All hof get one every year
I agree.
FACTS
I feel like champ bailey needs one also
Finally got one today
Anyone else have mad respect for running backs of the 90s - 2000s ? Edge, Marshal Faulk, Terrel Davis, Jerome Bettis, Emmitt Smith, Barry Sanders, Thurminator and so on and so on. I love running backs from the 90s - 2000s !
One of the best to ever do it, tremendously underrated,... even his later seasons with the cardinals he was stiff arming and stomping over dudes🤣 he was a beast in college and when the Colts drafted him and paired him with Manning I knew he was going to be a hall of famer
I'm from Indy, and I remember the collective groan when the Colts took him over Ricky. Edge was awesome. The Earl Campbell of the 00s. Congrats to he and 18.
The All James of NFL truly an ALL of FAME Running and Catching 👁️
He was an outstanding & so much talent always liked watching him play
This man was so much fun to watch!
When the Colts traded away Marshall Faulk people thought they were NUTS !!! With the The 4th pick the Indianapolis Colts select Edgerrin James, People they they were Crazy cause Ricky Williams was still there, well HOF inductee and People are saying hes one of the Best to ever do it. I fucking love the way Edge played football, old school workhorse, just enough finesse, but ALL BEAST !!! CONGRATULATIONS EDGERRIN JAMES YOUVE EARNED IT MA DUDE !!!
One of my favorite RB’s of all-time so smooth!
He was also a great catcher .
0:46 Deion Sanders with a TD saving tackle
Rare footy somebody clip that.
He was a beast.
He never played for my team, but I appreciated him. He ran through my team a few times...lol. Great running back.
A shame that he didn't win a ring. He was a great tailback
Didn't but the Colts did give him a super bowl ring for his contribution over the years with them when he was in Arizona.
@@supratrd900 did they really? He did deserve a ring he was definitely a workhorse.
I mean he left the year before they won so
@@supratrd900 I genuinely hope so, this guy was something else
The ring story is true. Also Irsay has only 1 picture of an individual player in his office at Lucas oil stadium. That's Edge.
You are absolutely correct he is very underrated, incredible balance, power and change of direction. I only wished he was with IND when they won the SB he was the ultimate work horse RB. I am so glad he made it to the hall of fame he definitely deserves it.made the maximum use of blockers as good as anyone I've ever seen.
We’ve heard about Marshall Faulk, we’ve heard Brian Westbrook (as we ranked him as the underrated receiving HB), and we’ve heard the legendary Emmit Smith. But how come no one hasn’t told me about this guy? This man is un-damn-believable! Had 100 yards rushing in almost every game, and closely collected 100 yards receiving in every game as well. And now he’s a HOFer. If anything, one of the most underrated HOFers I have ever heard in my life!
Probably because he left the Colts before they won the Super Bowl and then lost the Super Bowl with the Cardinals. Joseph Addai, who was not as good as Edgerrin James, is probably just as well or better remembered because he happened to be there in 06, and as a consequence for example scored the winning td vs the Patriots. But now Edge is in the Hall of Fame so he will start to get more recognition
He has great field awareness. Look when he runs, his head is always looking for or looking at the next man to beat.
Chris Johnson with head shake man.
Looks like some auto aim type of shit.
9:47 man his footwork was always on point, and his field vision 🤯🤯
Did not know he was this good!! He has the smoothest cut ive ever seen it looks so effortless sheeshh.
When bra starting wearing the black boots his game went to another level💪🏾
I remember going into the draft it was him a ricky Williams as the best two backs in the draft and people were upset that indy took him over Williams but I remember indy staff were saying they really liked him because not only was he a great runner of the ball but he could come out the backfield and catch really y good too along with blocking and they didn't make a mistake neither...Ricky was a helluva back also and had a damn good career especially in Miami so he wasnt a bum but I believe the colts were happy with their pick especially after the numbers he put up even after the ACL injury....they even gave him a superbowl ring when they won the year after he left....also people forget that he came in to replace another another HOF back they let go to St Louis in Faulk so James had some big shoes to fill and he did...CONGRATULATIONS to EJ on making the HOF...well deserved in my opinion
My first game watching him was 1998 knocking ucla out of title game
I think the colts did a good job drafting James after trading bfor Marshall faulk which I still think they should have kept Marshall but my point is James was really good running the ball and he was really good catching the ball too my favorite underrated running back
English is probably not your first language but it's Colts and you mean trading Marshall. I believe the Colts wanted to keep Marshall but i believe he was the one who wanted out of Indy and that force the Colts to trade him to ST Louis. Everything workout for both teams. In the 99 draft it was a two way tie between him and Ricky Williams who the Saints traded everything just to draft him. Ricky although was a superstar when he gotten the chance wasn't in it as much as Edge. Which is why Edge is going to the Hall and Ricky isn't.
@@supratrd900 thanks for telling me
Marshall wanted out of Indy in the worst way you could imagine.
@@speedyeagle2.25 You're so cool sonic
Disagree. Joseph Addai was more effective for Colts when it came to playoffs. Way better than E.James. addai wouldn't mess around. He hit the holes like the holes are meant to be hit. He was a no nonsense RB that didn't care. Thats why they won the Superbowl with Addai and made another with him and not with James. Jojo Addai wouldn't mess around. He was fast and would destroy defenses. He would get 5 yds before anyone knew what happened. Edgerrin was in that Ballerina BS and dancing around. Addai ran like a gangster.
He had no weakness in his game. A true every down back
Before he’s time !!
Edge was a beast. It's like he picked up where Curtis martin left off...
You cant say it no better.
@Fkyoutube Skmydkbih marshall was faster but he definitely had some marshall in his game too
Best down field blocking I’ve ever seen
Forgot how good this dude was
Edge is an amazing dude. People of Indy respect him, and are very proud of him. He was a huge part of the Colts success in those years. Rushing like a madman, and also equally important blocking for Peyton. His blocking skills made it so Peyton had time in the pocket. Edge is a man of respect, honor, and hard work. Any coach and every team would be blessed to have a player like him.. He is a Lion.
He was a GREAT back. PERIOD
Edgerrin James from University of Miami football running back
The U!!!!
Thanks 😊 You NFL Films We Love James
Favourite player ever!
Probably the most underrated back of all time. Most people NEVER talk about him when they are talking about the greats but he is easily a top 10-15 back ever. Also, his ability to follow and read blocks was unmatched. Look how often he puts his hand on the back of a lead blocker. The dude was so fundamentally sound
see Deion at 0:40 playing the run like a HS Freshman Cornerback. They should have charged him admission to watch the game. EDGE was a machine!!!
That was one badass running back
EJ !!!!! Been waiting for that call
Love this guy. Super underrated
One of my fave players growing up, had his colts jersey
Wore that #32
With pride
O. J. Is happy
THAT RUN AGAINST THE BEARS IN O4" 😵😵
One of my favorite childhood backs. Le'Veon Bell reminded me so much of him
I never forgot about "The Edge" like most did.
Never heard of dude but for him to not be heard of and be in hell of fame he must be super underrated 💯 now let’s watch these highlights
Thanks for Your Help You Tecmo Go Colts We Love N F L Films for truly yours
I've never seen such good downfield blocking as in some of these highlights. Not taking anything away from edgerrin he was the man but holy smokes
when it came to doing it all james takes a back seat to no one. he was definitely one of a kind super athlete.
Ej was the most florida looking running back of all the rbs from florida
Crazy how madden actually helps know and remember people aha i watch football but mainly my team
Bruh so many forget how raw he was 👌🏾
He was something real special his first two seasons in Indy. He never fully recovered from his knee injury in his 3rd season in 2001
All of the greats had at least one special/unique quality that helped set them apart. The thing that I noticed about Edge that was different than Sayers, Payton, Brown, Sanders, Smith, Jackson, Simpson, Campbell, Tomlinson, Peterson, ect...is that he could run laterally and also in reverse. Wow, he always amazed me with that. Phenomenal.
And a hall of famer ❤️
Dude was extremely strong.
One of my favs
My Personal All Time Favorite Player
Thank Goodness Myself To You NFL Films
One of the best RBs out "The U" , if not the best!!!
Sweet! Love the Edge!!! MONSTER!!! 🤌🤌
best rookie running back in the last 25 years
I remember watching him against UCLA. The Bruins were undefeated something like 10-0 or 11-0 and James beat them single handed. After that game I knew he was destined for greatness.
Violence Speed Momentum. Good video!
So underrated
Welcome to the Hall. Straight from the U
Peyton Manning said Edge was the best teammate he ever had. I'm glad he's finally getting the recognition he deserves.
From 03 to 08 He was one of the most dominate back in the game five straight yrs of 1k two out of five over 15 hundred let alone '99 to '00 over 15 hundred more yrds .. He almost forgot by causal fans real fans know he was the real deal.. 9:49 sickest stick move ever..
The Colts had a 25 year old running back in 1998 coming off a season with 2,227 yards from scrimmage who had racked up a total of 8,124 yards and 51 touchdowns in his first 5 years in the NFL. They traded him for a 2nd and 5th round pick and then took Edgerrin James 4th overall in the 1999 NFL draft. That decision was mind numbingly stupid but James was so good that it didn’t even matter. He ran for over 1,500 yards as a rookie and went for more than 2,100 yards from scrimmage. There was no sophomore slump. He lead the NFL with 1,709 rushing yards and 2,303 total yards in 2000. After missing most of 2001 he then accumulated over 1,300, 1,500, 2,000, 1,800, 1,300, and 1,400 total yards in each the next 6 seasons. The Manning, Harrison, and James triplets have a very strong case for the best ever. Offensive triplets are only a great as their weakest member and every other trio has at least one member who doesn’t measure up to either Manning, Harrison, or James.
I think the Colts trading Faulk was both sides (Faulk and the Colts) just not seeing eye to eye for whatever reason(s). Looks like both players worked out fine for both franchises, Indy and St. Louis.
🤔 Aikman, Irving, Emmett. Greatest show on turf group. Kelly, Freeman, Thomas. Montana, Rice, Craig. Those are right up there with them. Bradshaw, Swan, Harris. Bradshaw kinda overrated but has the hardware.
@@OK-gk1rp Thurman Thomas was such a great player, sort of overshadowed by Emmitt and Barry.
Neither Aikman or Warner were even close to Manning, though. Harrison was also better than Bruce and Irvin.
he was special to watch.
I just remember 1998 vs ucla who was about to play in the national title until he took over the game and was the reason Florida St played Tennessee in 1998
Beast!
Miss this kind of running
He was one of the best pass pro backs I've ever seen. Late in his career when he lost some speed, he'd get at the line and still be able to fall forward for 3 yards.
Wow!
Had it all, everything you want in a running back,
One of the greatest to do it,
This man was a beast on the field. Well deserving of going in the HOF
Was my favorite player at the time.
Edgerrin James #32
This colts team was legendary ..unbeatable in tha early madden games 😂
