- The best running back I've ever seen...he was so good it's like he had pity on the rest of the league and retired in his prime he would've played 4 or 5 more years he would've held every major rushing record by a mile today, another all-time great on a bunch s**ty lions teams...give him that Dallas offensive line Emmit Smith had and he would've rushed for 2,000 yards plus every year he was that great...second only to Jim Brown in average yards per game for his career with 102 yards per game with no real o line for ten years
- Sport
I was an ice hockey player. My number was #20. This man is thee reason why.
Softly tossing the ref the ball after he scores is the most gangster move I've ever seen. That quiet gesture had more impact than any touch-down dance I've ever witnessed.
The best ! Earl Campbell # 2
@@richardschauf7373 - Imagine if he had stayed healthy.
Getting in the end zone was a every day thing
If today's players had half as much class as Barry, wouldn't the NFL be glorious? No more show-offs and me-first whiners.
@@PlanetEarth3141 You know how I know you are a little beotch ?
Barry the only running back that can turn the opposing team lineman into offensive blockers
Oh shit 🤣 that's factz
Beautiful observation
Anytime anyone says yea but Barry has the most lost yards behind the line of scrimmage
I say
“ YEA, That’s just more proof of how BAD THE O’Line Was . “
Barry played with the worst O’Line of any great runners .
OJ is the closest to that of still being 1 of Thee GOAT’s & did it behind a turd line.
Also , OJ got His 2k in 14 Games
But so did Barry .
The Final 14 after only having 35 total through the 1st 2 weeks , 35 or 53 through 2 weeks and then EXPLODED For the final 14 weeks of the 1997 Season going over 100 every week 14 straight
to break 2k Rush Yards on My 18th Birthday
12/21/97
My All Time Favorite Player Broke 2k for the 2nd Most Single Season Rush yards on My 18th Birthday 😊
Now 3rd after amazing AD AP insane comeback season
Herman Moore was A Great WR
The Best Player Barry played with on either side of the ball
But the best QB was Rodney fricken Pete
So when You have turd QB’s it almost notifies being blessed to play with a Herman Moore
who got injured before they could do anything anyways
Which was part of the reason why Barry retired
His Best Teammates were gone
Best OL Lomas Brown to Giants
Best WR & Overall Player Herman Moore injured
Maybe Best Defender MLB Chris Spielman to Bills
Best Defender Barry played with was either MLB Chris Spielman
or OLB Pat Swilling
Bennie Blades & Mark Carrier were good players but not Great at all and none of these players I’ve mentioned all played together at once .
So weak Defenses , Weak QB’s & Weak O’line’s is what Barry still made succeed
So that tells You that Barry was literally Thee Reason Lions even made The Playoffs 🦁 20 🐐
Barry Sanders didn't have to brag, everybody else did that for him 👦
Underrated comment.
Barry Sanders THE BEST period!!!!!! From a Steeler fan
Barry’s Iconic playoff TD run against Dallas NEVER gets old! I’ve seen it at least 1000 times and could watch it 100000 times more!
Three words never said to Barry:
Tag, you’re it
I bet he never lost a dodgeball game either.
very good ,wasn''t he fun?
Barry Sanders would make you put down your plate to watch on thanksgiving!
And I did just that!
Yup
Oh lord yes, Thanksgiving and broken ankles went together
For me, Barry, humble and grounded off the field, makes him more special in my book. So very rare.
I would have given Barry Sanders 100 million dollars a season.
He was the best player.They couldnt catch him.
Thats why Barry was loyal.
Detroit is a great city too!
Best player to ever play the game. Im a pats fan. So i mean it
That's a whole fact 💙💙💙
Super humble dude. Always knew where the ref was when he scored and gave him the ball. No end zone dances etc. The man got to the end zone and behaved like he’d been there before. Much respect GOAT
@@JR-ne4mv they could’ve simply gave him a team. The man had no offensive line, no quarterback and only Herman Moore at wide out. They knew Barry was getting the ball and still couldn’t do anything about it.
Barry Sanders is the only football player that made me Love football. He was magnificent, electrifying. When people talk about the Goat, I always think of Barry Sanders. Then Michael Jordan. Peace.
Same, although Bill Russell...
Barry was extacey on feet(with a hand occasionally) defying gravity, inertia and, on the Lions, the odds.
He's also a pleasure to listen to.
Just amazing and grace on wheels.
It's good to have your favorite players and Barry was the best to do it at the RB position, but saying he's more of a GOAT than Jordan is just blasphemous and flat wrong
@@Chris-lo4zu GOAT status is mostly silly; too many metrics to combine to call someone the ACTUAL goat, rather than *A* goat.
To say MJ(my nba goat) was better at his sport, with a stacked team(brilliantly) than a person on the
Detroit
Lions
Who was grace on feet?
Your metrics are wonky.
THE goat?
A goat?
Barry was THE truth.
Grace on feet doesn't even come close-
He hands the ball to the ref regardless of where or how where he was.
That counts.
He
Was
There
To
Do
A (encompassing job, win)
And he tried like FUCK on the Detroit Lions.
The
Detroit
Lions.
@@Chris-lo4zu that was funny Chris. Bcool & staysafe.
@@Spthomas47 i guess you forgot how bad the Bulls were until Jordan made them a winner. Staked teams? He had Pippen and that's it. He hardly played with any all stars, won 6 of 6 titles and won the MVP each finals. Barry couldn't make them a winning team, Jordan carried his team for 15 years to 6 titles. Yeah, Jordan is the goat of all goats and it's hilarious you think Barry is above him in anything
The best description of what it was like to tackle Barry Sanders was said by a linebacker.." I squared him up but he split in two".
I also liked John Lynch when he said you couldn’t get him in a phone booth in a game of touch football.
Emmitt Smith, should thank Barry Sanders, for retiring early so he could get the rushing record!
The STATS are great...but how he did it will NEVER be matched
I actually played against B. Sanders in college...Not only was Barry the best RB of all time, he was a class act. His skills on the field were mythical to say the least. On top of his playing skills, his display of humility and heart was true and one of a kind. It was always great the way he would gently toss the ball to the referee after he’d score a touchdown. Just to show his humility and that he’s been there before...
Stop lying to get likes. 😂😂
There are great RB and legendary RB in the NFL and then there is Barry Sanders. He is in a league of his own. He is the greatest RB to ever play.
He was the best I ever saw. I'm 55 years old now. Grew up watching the Lions. I saw the #20 jersey worn by Lem Barney and Billy Sims before Barry got it. I loved Walter, Terry Metcalf, Dickerson, even O.J. Simpson. Some I'm sure I forgot. Nobody affected me like Barry did. He's the GOAT.
Im 35. Huge tom brady fan. BARRY is the best player to touch the bAll in any skill position. I watch Barry sanders highlights on the off season. Not brady highlights. We will never ever ever EVER see another Barry Sanders EEEEEEEEVVVEEEERRRRRR AGAIN
@Byron Matthews oh shit! You just brought back more memories. Chuck Foreman, I can't believe someone remembers him. I had a 4 foot tall poster of him in my bedroom! Along with a Charlie Sanders 4 ft poster. Then there was Farrah Fawcett Majors in her red swimsuit there too. Haha. We didn't have the internet back then. You had to make do with what the universe gave you. My dad had tickets to the Lions vs Saints at Tiger stadium. We didn't go! And that was the game Tom Dempsey kicked the 63 yd field goal. Club foot and deformed hand.
@Byron Matthews Nothing wrong with loving the Saints. I used to write to all the NFL owners in 74 thru 77. They would send me unbelievable merchandise like stickers and autographed pictures, pennants, yearbooks. Joseph Robbie gave me unbelievable Dolphin merchandise. Tom Mecom gave me a silver Saints bracelet and stickers and more. The old 70's Saints logo with the dude is one of my favorites. I have personal letters from him with his real signature on them. Al Davis was good to me also. Hell almost all the old owners sent me personal letters and merchandise. Ralph Wilson owned the Buffalo Bills and their team headquarters was in the Renaissance Center in Detroit. I have OJ Simpson high quality black and white glossy action photos of him. Wilson was a generous man.
@Byron Matthews yes I remember Foremans spin moves. He killed Detroit every year x 2. They always lost the Super Bowl though.
Gayle Sayers ankle breaker short career but OMG Freaking amazing . .. . . Sayers Sanders Payton Dickerson O.J.
I’ve always said the Barry Sanders on the Dallas offense would have
gained probably 3000 yards one of those years.
Facts
I did it on Madden 64. Put him on my Cowboys.
jim, i have said the same thing for years
U give Barry the o-line
That enmitt had at Dallas and Barry would
Have set the record so
Far out of sight no one
Would be able to touch
It
, instead of handing the
Ball to the ref, he would
Just set the ball on the turf in the end zone
Barry made being a lions fan rewarding. That says a lot :o).
He's still our pride and joy...
LoL being born in Pontiac you comment couldn’t be more true!
If I had to pick one running back in my backfield regardless of the offensive scheme/time/date/decade he would always be my first pick.
The trial of bodies he would leave behind him laying on the ground always makes me laugh
*Barry sanders was a freak athlete. One of the best damn running backs to ever grace the game of football. One of my favorites.*
Glad I grew up in the 90s watching Barry juke everyone 😂
Never be another Barry Sanders, some say that alot players but what he did on the football field, amazing.
I just went through a pound of tissue. I watched every single game of his career. Out of all the moves he had, I personally think the greatest one, was when he flicked the ball to the ref in the end zone.
Sure don't see that anymore.
@@Dreyden- didn’t see it much before,either.
He was grace in motion.
An absolute joy to watch and pleasure to listen too.
He defied gravity, inertia and, on the Lions, the odds.
Detroit did him dirty dirty.
And he still has that grace.
Music on feet, and occasionally a hand.
What I always loved about Barry in his playing days was right after a run or score he would hand the ball to the nearest ref. No celebration or dramatics just humble performance. How you do your job and carry yourself is what makes you the greatest. And unlike so many other great backs he never ran behind a good offensive line. If he would have ran behind Emmits Cowboy Oline the Cowboys would never had had to pass.
Honest question: What is it about celebrating that bothers you so much? (For the record, while I’m a lifelong Niners fan, Barry is my favorite player in history). I honestly don’t get it. It’s like you guys forget that this is a GAME and it’s entertainment at the end of the day.
@@blacksuburban2410 so youd be more entertained by Barry dancing around in the endzone or one of his fantastic runs? He didnt need to celebrate, he knew how good he was. If I wanted to watch dancing id be watching dancing with the stars, but Im watching football, well actually I dont do that anymore.
There’s nothing wrong with celebrating. Many of the greats have done it. People have different ways of expressing themselves. Takes nothing away from how they did their job.
It simply boils down to the fact that most players with that amount of talent would ha
Wait… Are you saying that he could’ve done the same exact things between the whistles, but if he spiked the ball or danced after TDs, it would diminish or disqualify him from being the greatest??? Bwahahahahaha! I’ll never understand this obsession with controlling another man’s temperament.
who else loves the solid color uniform. Barry looks incredibly fast in that.
The two great running back what ifs are what if Barry Sanders ran behind the 90's Cowboys O-line and what if Bo Jackson had only played football and had not gotten injured.
Bo was so fast that when he broke off that
85/90 yard run against
Seattle in Seattle he was going so fast that
The only player for the
Seahawks that had a slim chance of running
Bo down on the play was K.Easley& he had the angle, but Bo just
Blew rite by him like he
was standing still. And
He was the one who hit
LB B. Bosworth's left shoulder, and forced him to have to RRTIRE
FROM FOOTBALL. Bo
Had the speed of a CHEETAH& THE POWER OF A BEAR.
Barry Sanders was definitely the best RB of all time and quit before he amassed all the stats. The team never exactly invested in the offensive line or quarterback during his time. He was always a true professional. But he was lightning on the field regardless of the talent around him. He was certainly the best I have ever seen at his position.
Barry Sanders playoff numbers,
1991: 23 carries 113 yards 1 TD
1993: 27 carries 169 yards 0 TD
1994: 13 carries -1 yards 0 TD
1995: 10 carries 40 yards 0 TD
1997: 18 carries. 65. yards 0 TD
Total numbers: 91 rushes for 386 yards 1 touchdown.
Moral of the story... All that juking and stopping and running in circles only looks good in highlights. Emmitt > Barry by A LOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Emmitt Smith is hands down the "GREATEST" running back PERIOD
@@357twilson But look at the team Emmit Schmidt played for. Put him on the Lions and Barry on the Cowboys and there'd be no comparison. Barry would have records that would never be broken.
@@357twilson so basically, when defenders are routinely in the backfield before the rb can get a firm grip on the handoff, it makes it nearly impossible to put up Barry's numbers. Barry broke a dozen tackles in the GB game. The full game is still on YT, and even with that terrible of a game, he still avgd 4.2. ypc for his playoff career. Det just usually wasn't very good, from top to bottom.
Russell Langworthy wrong! Barry had a good team and good teammates. He simply didn’t get it done.
Those Lions throwback uniforms are the best ever...Barry just running wild in that uni was the 90s.
Barry had his best runs in the throwback uniforms 😊
Imagine Barry, Stafford, and Calvin all playing at the same time
We would still find a way to not get close to a Championship somehow.
@@templetonbob honestly 😂
I'm not even a Lions fan, but honestly, it's frustrating. I'd be happy if Detroit could win a title. Detroit's been bad for a long time, but I gotta cheer for the underdog
Even better they had Herman Moore and Brett Perriman
Barry rushed for 1500+, Herman and Brett both had over 100 catches for 1000+ yards, Scott Mitchell threw for over 5k I think and they still didn't make the championship because the defense wasn't quite there.
I scroll to type what i want to say...and bam, its in the first comment. Humble. This is literally the definition of being a hero. Doing whats right, regardless of...
lmao i'm a packer fan but this is awesome Love U 4 ever Sanders! greatest all time... good god the camera's can't even catch his feet.
Barry is like Joe DiMaggio. You can't get caught up in his numbers or stats when comparing him to other players. If you watched him play, his greatness was undeniable and indescribable.
Love Di Maggio but Mays was better imo.
He was amazing. One thing not at times mentioned, he NEVER fumbled.
Barry "wow them all" Sanders. Best running back ever. Barry could do more with a football than any other RB in history. Not to take anything from all the other greats but he only had one gear. Fastest!! And I was very fortunate to be to see and watch this man do it all. Then when he retired it was one of the hardest things to except. However after hearing him explain his reasons I understood just why he left the game at such a young age. Thank you Barry Sanders for all the oh my gosh memories. You were the best, you're still the best, and you will always be the best. God bless you Mr. Sanders....
OJ Simpson 2000 yards in a 14-game season to this day unbeatable
Barry Sanders the RB GOAT. The NFL player who didn't need records or championships to be the GOAT.
Barry's da bomb. His running style is a wonder.
GREAT VIDEO. Thank you!
No question in my mind that Barry is the GOAT running back. Also, no question that Barry is
the most humble sports star of all time. His personality was just as jaw-droppingly interesting as his skills.
Many people were dumbfounded as to why this man retired so close to the all-time rushing record. But they forgot, this is the same man who ran for over 2600 yards in a
12-game college season, and didn't want the Heisman. Didn't care about it. Was
GENUINELY embarrassed and displeased to have to endure the individual attention
of receiving the accolade.
They also forgot that this is the man who, on multiple occasions from high school through his professional career, avoided chasing any records. If his team had secured the win, he sat down and let someone else play, no matter how close he was to breaking some record. This shows us what's important in Barry's mind: 1) team winning, and 2) avoiding as much individual attention as possible.
Fast forward to the 1989; Barry retires from the NFL. His "desire to leave the game was greater than his desire to stay." Did he desire to leave the losing ways of the Detroit Lions? That's definitely part of it; he was a winner, and the Lions were not giving him that opportunity. But, based on his personality, i think that in equal part he desired to leave the looming prospect of earning one of (if not the) highest individual accolades in professional football; Leading Rusher in NFL history; i.e. the GOAT RB. I think that, like the Heisman, he wanted no parts of that. Especially since he had no team-success to accompany it.
As 1+1=2,
Team losing + Individual accolades = Barry retirement.
Not dumbfounding at all, given his personality.
By retiring prior to reaching Payton's mark, Barry did what he could to juke the title of GOAT.
Too bad, Barry. Sorry to say, the vast majority of NFL players, former players and coaches still consider you the greatest RB of all time, stats or no stats...
FACT. He is the Randy Moss of RBs. You know it when you see it. Most GIFTED RB to ever touch a football. Did things we've never seen before or since.
Crazy move 2:31
Like he was saying to himself "Nope, not this hole, next one. No, This one is also closed"
If you watch Berry's feet he's never on his toes he plants his whole foot and Jukes everybody out of their jockstrap one of the most kindest responsible and very respectful players ever to play in the NFL hands down
I went to college with this man.... it was an honor to just watch him play on Saturdays.
If the NFL had this category, Barry Sanders would have the record for “Most Ankles Broken!”
THE GREATEST PLAYER OF ANY POSITION, INCLUDING COACHES TO EVER STEP ON THE FIELD.
THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER BARRY SANDERS.
I would like to see someone with 1/10th of SANDERS carry the ball please.
and one of the best people morally as well. Everyone sucks but Barry Sanders and I'm a Tom Brady fan.
There’ll never be anything like him again
Barry is the greatest Running back!!!
Just the best.........noone even comes close! 10 years, ten years!, he was the 1 back at anygiven time or year.
Barry was incredible to watch even when he was on the opposing team. I'm a Vikings fan and he made my defense look like fools twice a year. I was still impressed watching him.
Not a Lions fan, but Barry Sanders was incredible!! Seems like a good man too, very humble. Btw, excellent video!!
Thanks a lot Mark
It’s not easy Mark. It’s HARD times.
@@kinglucha3640 id say REALLY hard times. Bay city.
75 and Springwell. Fan since 81 and I don’t just mean Megatron lol.

No words needed
I have a friend that played in the NFL one day i said Joe how in the love of God do you hit Berry Sanders his answer you don't you just hope he doesn't make you look, like a fool.
best part when you reach paydirt ac like you've been there...he hands the ref the bal after avtd..very humble and yes the greatest of all running backs
The one thing every Barry run had in common, he handed the ball to the ref every time. The run itself is a celebration, no need for it after the fact. The thing that stood out was how humble he was as I grew up watching him play. Too bad the Lions couldn't have put together an offensive line like Dallas had back in those days.
One more thing every Barry Sanders run had in common, something I've never heard anyone else take notice of, is he ran not just with effort, but desperation, giving his absolute all to scratch out and get every last possible centimeter he could on every, and I mean every run! Most guys will give genuine effort to most plays, none played with desperation of effort like the quiet, unassuming Mr Sanders. Just one more thing to love about the guy.
Hard to argue against it I think he retired when he did out of respect for Walter. He was always fantastic to watch and such a quiet performer too. A real role model.
Chris Young The front office quit on him.
Barry quit because Matt millin wouldn't trade him. 1 can you emagine what they could have gotten for him. 2 as a lions fan I would have routed for him wherever he went even gb min or chic
@@BoomerandZoomerReacts Probably but if he had been all around for as long as he could’ve been heat on the rushing record book kind of like how Brady owns the quarterback book
Damn! Glad to see a new Barry video. This is the best one yet. Been a Lions fan my whole life. 50+ yrs now. Never saw anything like Barry in my life. And I watched OJ Simpson's career too. God said "I'm gonna make the best RB today." And i thank God i got to see his handiwork in person. He broke my heart when he retired. I didn't cry! I had something in my eye!
Lol water
He is the best player to play the game. In any position. Period. Im a pats fan
61 year old Lions fan and I did cry a little! It hurt. Imagine if we could have had Barry, Megatron, Stafford, Slay, Galliday, Jason Hanson all start as rookies together!
Just imagine if Barry Sanders had an O Line like Emmitt Smith
Barry Sanders is probably one of the nicest and most humble person on this earth.
Barry Sanders in slow-mo and stop-action photos - looks like a straight-up Superhero in action!! #THEGOAT
Barry Sanders has got to be the best!!
The Greatest!!!
The guy was a class act as a person and the most amazing RB to watch. There may be folks with comparable or even better stat's... But he made you laugh just watching him turn the defense inside out. There is nobody else to match him.
Simply superb....cubed. He also rarely fumbled. He was so good you could count the hard hits he took for his entire career on one hand. Yeah, he was that elusive.
The NFL Hall of Famer Rod Woodson tried to tackle Barry Sanders in space early in the 1995 Season and Barry half A$$ed juked and Woodon tore his ACL.
Facts I saw it when it happened preseason game
I watched that game and to this day I've never seen a RB end a players season without touching him
@@q-dawwg626Rod Woodson did come back and play in the SB.
@@Sean-jb5gi Word?? I could've sworn that was a different season....I could be wrong bruh. Appreciate it
@@q-dawwg626 1996, Woodson made his return from injury and played in Super Bowl XXX as the Steelers lost 27-17 to the Dallas Cowboys. Woodson became the first player to return from reconstructive knee surgery in the same season and returned after only 19 weeks
I wasn't a Lions fan but I watched every game I could just to see Berry run
Thank you for making this video . Being from Detroit Barry was OUR EVERYTHING on Sunday. It pains me to no end that Barry’s career was never synonymous with winning. I never in my life wanted to see an athlete win a chip more than him
My pleasure one of my idols growing up
@@FacePCGaming you chose A TRUE GENTLEMAN ATHLETE... salute to you
I'm from Detroit and been to plenty of Lions games, I was at the game where Barry rushed for 2 80 yard rushes in the same game and no one was as electrifying as B Sands god bless the absolute truest GOAT
I had the privilege of watching him play when I was a kid. My brother and I were both in awe watching him. I really doubt we will se another back like him in our lifetimes.
39 touchdowns in 11 games at OSU 🐐
I'm 52, Barry was basically a unicorn like Freddie Mercury was in vocals. We won't get a second act and just enjoy what we got. There will not be another Barry. Wish I was wrong! 8
Yes, Wichita Kansas native Barry Sanders is the all time running back 🐐
Undoubtedly the greatest running back to ever play the game. I was born and raied in Detroit and was blessed to have been able to see him play in person, and believe me, as exciting as it is to watch him play on tv, it was something truly amazing to see in person.. I can remember trying to convince myself that what I just saw really happened and before I can , he does something, just as , if not more amazing.
You NEVER saw Barry perform some BULLSH!T spinning disco touchdown dance. He was the Greatest by Far !
Sanders would've had "Wayne Gretzky- like" football stats!
He probably could've been the greatest point guard of all time in the NBA too.
Barry you are the best. you broke the mold, unicorn, GOAT
I loved Barry for the reasons I still love him today. Humility, kindness, decency and class. There will never be another Barry Sanders. I knew what I was witnessing would never be repeated in my lifetime. He really showed what the "little guys" could do. All he ever did was let his actions speak for him and the rest of us small guys. Funny how the greatest of all time, Barry Sanders and Wayne Gretzky in their respective sports were not supposed to do much. No one realized what they were. The way they were brought up was a reflection of the class acts they were off the field. I lived in a time where the greatest ever played. I would love to put Wilt Chamberlain in this class but he wasn't the same. An unparalleled athlete but not the same humility. Wilt was supposed to be great and he was the greatest but these guys. Hats off to the underdogs and little men. There will never be another athlete like them.
Had Barry ran behind the 1990’s Dallas OL, he would have rushed for 20000 career yards. Not a typo.
At least. He had almost 16000 at retirement, and was still perfectly healthy. It's no stretch to say he could have easily played four more years, retiring at 34. If he just maintains a bit below his career average at 1300 yards per year, that puts him a little over 21,000 yards. And that's low-balling it!
EASILY!!!
2624 yards that is insane even by today standards....monster status
In 11 games
Barry Sanders is still in 2023 the best running back the NFL game has every seen. No player had all around toughness, elite speed, joystick moves, above elite vision, and endless drive. Never seen it. With less never had a complement player on his team on offense or defense. He was the person everyone came to see and no one else in Detroit made you want to look at the TV.
My Favorite Video!!! Love how you put it in a documentary-movie type form. Could watch this everyday
Ryan thanks a million!
When he literally shook off the the entire Dallas defensive line 🤗
Possibly the greatest of all time... and never once blew his own horn. No hype at all... just action.
He gave us hope in the 90's. Even when the Lions had a crappy season we watched to see the unexpected. There will never be another. Not in my lifetime.
And he never celebrated
I have watched them all from Jim Brown till now 2021 and Barry Sanders was the best. Had Barry played longer in which he could have he would have owned everything for the next 100 years. But I no longer watch football due to the lack of Flag and national anthem support.
The greatest running back to ever live. Bullets ricochet slower than Barry changes direction. What make Barry the greatest is his humility. He could make a touchdown and not act like a total idiot. That’s rare in the NFL.
Thanks for putting all that together! No one realizes how many hours that took! But, Barry is worth it
Tell me about it lol I appreciate you 👍
The humblest running back ever just happens to be the greatest ever. That's just refreshing like kindly handing the football to the Ref. But everyone knew he was thinking "I'll be back shortly"...
Definitely, my favorite running back!
I met him twice!! Nicest man you will ever meet!!
Barry Sanders is a Class Act every time he scores a touchdown he just passes the ball to the ref knowing that he's been there before. Today's touchdown celebrations are ridiculously stupid.
Barry is the goat
In my opinion hands down Barry Sanders is the Best Running Back of all time he was an electrifying runner everybody enjoy watching him play. If he didn’t retired early he would hold the # 1 running back record. The way he would make players miss juke stiff arm spin move stop on the dime go in one direction stop and go the other direction. He was awesome to watch. He is the Best RB of all time. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Barry Sanders the wonderful memories thank you
Barry Sanders Represents The Resilience of The Human Soul 💯💯💯 He's Poetry in Motion 👨💻
I remember when everyone wanted to be like Mike. Yet I wanted to carry like Barry. I was never a Lions fan. But I was a Sanders fan. He brought to the game something that many had never seen before. His split second moves cutting thru the line broke many of ankles. Yet what is just as equally impressive? Is his humility. He let his blinding speed and neck breaking jukes do the talking. Him handing or tossing the ball to the refs after every score speaks volumes to the man that he is. No matter which RB holds the all time leading rusher title when it's all said and done? In my books Barry Sanders will be the greatest runner back ever!! Thank Mr. Sanders for the many memorable moments. GOD bless you always sir..
Barry is the absolute best NFL player in history plain and simple, there is no such other way about it. No one else can compare. 39 TD's in 11 games was a cakewalk. Everyone else is just ridiculous.
Thx for putting this together
I love the comment by Joe Dumars at 3:42. So true.
I was fortunate enough to see Barry play throughout his career. Not a Lion's fan but the biggest Barry Sanders fan. My favorite player of all time and the greatest NFL player in history. Dude was a human highlight machine. Love Barry.
Barry set the bar for all future running backs.
