What do you mean besides Detroit and Cleveland?
Aaron Jones and Austin Ekeler come to mind for what your asking
Derek Henry is slowing down imo
Nick Chubb is the best but we can't include Cleveland?
I assumed the best franchise running backs ever for Detroit and Cleveland were Jim Brown and Barry Sanders.
Asking who are the other teams greatest backs ever.
Ahh gotcha, I was thinking you meant current RB's
Cowboys- Emmett Smith
Bills -OJ Simpson
Bears-Walter Payton
Chargers-Ladainian Tomlinson
Rams-Marshall Faulk
Broncos-Terrell Davis
Viikings- Adrian Peterson
Off the rip I'd say these guys are locks
Chiefs - Priest Holmes
Houston -Earl Campbell
Including Tennessee or no ?
Tough one, your not losing either way but I'd take the Bus
I'd take Campbell every time over Eddie George
I go Franco - Bettis’s first 3 years (which are included in Hidhoe’s stats) were with the Rams. That’s over 3K yards outside a Steeler uniform (vs only 170 for Harris at Seattle). Add in the Super Bowl MVP and I pick Harris.
Jim
Being honest I completely forgot Bettis being a Ram
Redskins - John Riggins
Raiders - Marcus Allen
Steve
Miami - Larry Csonka
Colts - Edgerrin James
Rams - Eric Dickerson
STeve
Patriots - Jim Nance
Giants - Tiki Barber
Jets - Curtis Martin
Cardinals - Ottis Anderson

For my favorite team (Denver) i initially thought of Floyd Little.
However upon checking the career stats of Denver's running backs Terrell Davis is no question the best.
Floyd Little comes in second. Other notable Denver running backs are Otis Armstrong, Sammy Winder and Clinton Portis.
how about corey dillon for the bengals
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
I think that Buffalo isnt necessarily a lock with OJ. thurman thomas was a much better receiver. I think i would take him.

I was torn between Dickerson and Faulk as well. Both pairs were phenomenal
For Seattle it got to be between Alexander or Lynch. I’d like to see a stat comps
Martin
Coin flip. Alexander?
So true.
Steelers - Franco Harris
Best post- season back in history.
He's one of only three Steelers to have his number retired.
Terry Bradshaw was AMAZING!!
Ignore list -Basebal21
Cowboys - Tony Dorsett

I would go with alexander over lynch. Alexander was a TD machine. 18 more TD's in 26 fewer games.
