I don't think y'all know what a wall of text is. My post was long, but it was broken down into paragraphs.

Gotta love reactionary conclusions after bowl games.
Henry is already better than Ingram, Richardson, and NFL Off. ROY candidate Eddie Lacy.
Gotta love when people can't see greatness right in front of their faces.
Was Manziel great from his first game on, or only after the Heisman ceremony? What about Cam?
Greatness isn't cumulative. It doesn't require a wait and see approach. It's there or it isn't.

Players don't get better? They are just either great or not?
Henry will be a beast, but I'm not ready to call him the GOAT yet.

It isn't focking Anna Karenina or Infinite Jest. It's like maybe 1,000 words.

What?
And even if that is the case, how can you quantify greatness compared to other great RBs if its a simple great or not great?

It was actually a good post...
But you're looking for rationale with half-wits
...you'd get a better response from a glass of milk

1/10 on both. Would not bone either one.

Really? You disagree with that? I'm not sure how to reply because I don't think I'm taking a radical stance here. Why was Barry Sanders great? Because he was great. Why is Adrian Peterson great? Because he's great. Vision and power and explosiveness and agility and top-end speed are not learned traits. You got 'em or you don't.

I'm not sure if I understand what you're asking. Mostly because I don't know what it means to quantify greatness.

Or a warm glass of spit. I upvoted.

Power, explosiveness, agility, and speed can be improved upon by working hard.

You are qualifying running backs as great or not great. That's all fine and good.
How can you tell who is greatest?

584 words.
The average college student reads 450 words per minute.
