On mobile, scroll all the way down and click “Desktop” to see it. (You can then scroll down and click “Mobile” to go back.)

It’s this one:

All were great in their era, but in today's era at their best, I would go with Adrian Peterson. Bo Jackson is the best I've ever seen in their time

I agree, anytime a similar topic comes up Bo is my first initial thought, but when studying this particular list more carefully, there really are a few tough choices here.

Barry Sanders seems to be the popular choice, and there are a few others that could be here but aren't mentioned.

Bo Jackson appears to be getting the most pro/con arguments on Twitter, mostly for the short period of his actual playing time, which is a pretty valid point.

IDK—he's a tough call to make on this list, but I can honestly see it both ways.

Herschel easily.

Top 3 is Herschel, Sanders, Henry.




I can tell you never saw Bo in person.
Herschel is the only name that should be in the same breath as Bo, and it is absolutely incredible that they were only 2 years separated from each other.
Arguably the two best CFB RB's ever.

If Bo would have concentrated on football only and remained injury free, he would probably hold most every career NFL rushing record to this day.

He was a freak athlete.

Barry Sanders is the G.O.A.T. running back college and NFL. His only problem was that he played for the worst franchise in NFL.

Jim Brown was every bit the athlete Bo was. In 2 different sports hall of famers, that's my pick
