    That non-tackle by the Bills at 1:47 is one of the most insane displays of strength, balance, agility, and sheer will power I have ever seen. Love it. Barry was the best.

    Barry Sanders retired 21 years ago. To this day nobody has done on the field what he has done. The moves he made have not been replicated. I can't think of another athlete, in any sport, that we can say that about. In a sports world where evolution of athletes happens so quickly that is probably the greatest legacy that Sanders left.

    • @irhungry66
      @irhungry66 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Marshawn Lynch literally carried his team to 2 Super Bowls. Marshawn ran his best when his team needed him the most (THE PLAYOFFS) Barry took his team to what? An NFC Championship? Cool. But it's all personal preference. I like a running back to intimidate the other team with his brutal power house running game and 2 Super Bowl appearances than someone who rushed 1000+ yards in consecutive seasons but no Super Bowl achievements. Who did the Seahawks have on offense that could even compare to Marshawn? Russell Wilson? Russell needed Marshawn back there with him.

    • @mitchellkalina8191

      irhungry66 hahaha r u serious? u just made it more clear that ur an idiot. those seahawks teams were well rounded, way better than any team Barry ever played on. the seahawks had awesome defenses and a good mix of run/pass on offense. defense shows in the playoffs and when u have a defense that good and r winning u can run the ball as much as possible without fear of losing the lead. the lions never had a defense in the same league as those seahawk teams

Don't even get me started on the music of the 1980's and 1990's. We Gen-Xer's were some spoiled ass motherfuckers, lmao!

    I'm 33 years old and I can honestly say that this man was single-handedly the reason why I started rooting for Detroit back in 1990, yes when I was only 6 years old. Because of his short statue, I grew to love seeing him play because he was always against all odds, being one of, if not the shortest man on the field. I'm a true die-hard Lions fans because even when the team went winless, I STILL was repping my Lions 🦁🦁🦁🏈🏈 because Barry had me hooked!!! 😂😂😂 I always hoped and wished that he had more offensive weapons around him but that never happened other than Herman Moore. Brett Perriman wasn't dependable and our QBs... well.... That's another story.

    I grew up in Chicago watching the great Walter Payton, but I still gotta go with Barry as the goat. So fast, and he could spin and bounce off you or just flat out make you miss. Fastest recovery I've ever seen. He could go from 60 to 0 and back to 60 in a blink. Two strides and he was back at full speed again.

    Barry quit ball in his prime and only needed 1 more season to beat Walter Payton. I am sorry, but Barry Sanders was a better running back than Walter Peyton, and is the best and most impressive running back to ever play the game. He was the only player to ever get such a lousy football squad hope and brought SOOO many people to the game of football. There were just things Barry did on the field that no one else could ever do and probably will never do. Sometimes you have to look past numbers and just look at the skill and and what he brought to the table. He single-handedly made the Lions relevant and brought them to the Playoffs multiple years with GARBAGE Offenses and O-Lines.. Walter had the benefit of playing for some awesome Bears Offenses. Take nothing away from Payton, but Barry was just the more entertaining player to watch and his skillset was just unmatched.

Woodson never laid a finger on him....Barry being such a humble guy actually felt bad that Woodson was injured.....I've never seen anything like that since and probably won't ever again.

You can't even argue it. Yeah AP got injured and came back and had a FANTASTIC year but that doesn't make him better than Barry. That just says that he had a good recovery. There is nothing anyone could say that would make Barry not the best in my opinion.

Bo was strong in the seasons he played but a prolonged career would of made him more talented. There are plenty of running backs better than Bo: Earl Campbell, Jerome Bettis, OJ Simpson, Marcus Allen,Eric Dickerson, Marshall Faulk, Emmitt Smith, LaDainian Tomlinson, Barry Sanders, Walter Payton, Jim brown, etc.

      @@eklipse2976 People who say Bo are clueless twits. Bo had a total of 2782 yards & only 16 TD's in his 4 year career. Never reached 1000 yards. Ave of only 10 receptions per year & only 150 yards a year receiving. Retired at 28 years old. Yes injury made him retire but that is part of the game. Kirk Gibson could have been one of the best WR's ever but chose baseball. He ran a 4.28 40 was 6'3" tall & weighed 230 lbs back in 1978. He was gonna be a 1st over all pick they said. But guess what you cannot mention him all time great WR because of what could have been. Bo does not even make top 25 all time great RB. Yes durability is part of it.

    Barry's the man. His humble attitude really just made him look even better. The comment about ball-bearings in his ankles is the best way to describe him. He's a super-human, and nobody has ever been able to think, react, and cut like Barry could. The "Ali" of football. It's almost as if these once-in-a-generation athletes can slow down time around them.

      Johnnie Doe Megatron hadn't practiced in like 3 years. His ankles are torn to shit. Couldn't run very fast. If you saw him play last season, he just gave up when a defender got to him. Didn't even try to break the tackle. He'd jut kinda jump into the defender and fall. As for Barry, yeah. He played during a rough time. Didn't like the direction the GM was going, so he retired right before training camp. You can blame that on the Lions organization. But you can't blame Megatron on them. And you can't blame their other greats on the organization either. It's literally 2 people that ended their careers early, and one of them was because of the GM.

      The line wasn't garbage and in 1994 Scott Mitchel was the best QB apart from Steve Young. Herman Moore has multiple 1,000 yard season and soe does Brett Perriman. They also had Johnny Morton to replace Brett in that duo. Their line had Lomas Brown and Kevin Glover, how was it one of the worst in history.
      IF you want to know why the Lions lost just look at Barry's post season production compared to his regular season production. In 1994 week 14 vs. the Packers Barry had about 200 yards rushing, then vs. the same teams in the playoffs less than a month later he had -4. Barry is the Peyton Manning of RBs, great regular season,but chokes hard in the playoffs.
