Alltime favorite player. The ultimate "imagine if he had a .....". He could make a 2 yard run look ridiculous. And just think Okl st once had him and Thurman Thomas. Together.
He has said in recent interviews that he looked around the locker room and didn't recognize anyone and knew it was time to walk away. I will never forgive the lions franchise for absolutely wasting both sanders career and megatron's career. It's maddening that this franchise has been so inept for so long. Regarding Sanders' playoff performance against Green Bay, go watch the game. The Packers loaded the box the entire game knowing they only had to slow down Sanders in order to win. He is absolutely the greatest RB to ever play the game. Sad he didn't get to have playoff success for a winning franchise.
The term GOAT didn’t exist in its current definition until LL Cool J made an album of that same name in like the year 2000. After that the term went crazy
Mr. Ford found out Barry was a show and he sold Barry out as the ,”Barry Sanders Show”, winning wasn’t his top priority. Had the stars aligned, Packers would have picked Barry at second and them 90’s Cowboys and 49ers would’ve had their hands full.

Well said! It is wild that they had both of those insanely talented HOFers, yet still couldn't shed the mediocrity tag
Crazy stats, what a legend
Sure is!
