Greatest Running Backs of All Time

Greatest Running Backs of All Time (July 2016)

I had done a list of the worst running backs of all time. This is the list of the greatest. All of the greatest are here. It is a shame that the position has gone somewhat out of fashion at the moment. There is nothing greater in football or all of sports than a great running back breaking a long run. Obviously, this is based on football. There are one or two really bad individuals on this list, but I did not take their personal lives into account. Career accomplishments also play a role. For example, I believe Bo Jackson is a top five talent, but he only played a few years so that hurts his ranking here.
