I saw them play and Bo Jackson > Herschel Walker.

I agree both had power and speed, but Bo was a special kind of athlete. I've never seen a running back literally run over an NFL defensive back as Bo did

I think you can make a great case for the greatest waste of talent ever when you talk about Bo Jackson and professional sports.

He did lead the major leagues in one stat - Strikeouts.

Number of 1000 yard seasons in the NFL…pretty sure that was zero. I think he got close once though.

Yes he has some absolutely amazing clips. But a few spectacular plays are outweighed by overall performance.
