GOAT of running backs hands down.. when you do what he does, with Scott Mitchell as your best qb ever.. it's not even close.. sorry Emmitt.. and it's not even close
I always mention that when someone tries arguing the greatest running back. Out of all the offensive lineman he played with there was only 1 that went to a few prowbowls. The coaches made plays that would purposely allow the defensive end through unblocked to allow the tackle to get upfield. They did this knowing Barry would make the first guy miss.
Absolutely, if he had the Cowboys Super Bowl line, he may have doubled his yards. It broke my heart that he never got a real shot at a championship. Greatest and most innovative back in NFL history.
Not to mention Barry is the all time leader in negative yardage rushes. The entire defensive line was in the backfield before he even got the ball. Dude was a legit magician
@@robertaveritt729 Offensive Tackle Lomas Brown was a multiple NFL All-Pro and Pro Bowler and so was Center Kevin Glover blocking for Barry Sanders in Detroit.
I think Eric Kramer was the best Detroit Lions QB to play with Barry, at least he won a playoff game and helped them win two NFC Central Division Titles. Mitchell choked in his playoff appearances.
Barry's laugh is so wholesome. Awesome , a legend
He has to be the most humble Hall of Famer ever! Growing up in Michigan I was blessed to have the privilege of watching him every week
Loved watching Barry run. He would have been the all time rushing leader if he hadn't retired.
In ANY decade
Best running back of all time! IMO!
Nah. Walter takes that title.
No. I would pick Bo Jackson over Bardy Sander even I like Barry Sander
Him, Walter or Gail Sayers
I agree
@@vsary6968 BO is the most overrated athlete in history
The problem I have with Barry Sanders interviews is they are never long enough.
A great interview - he should be invited back more often.
He won’t come. He prefers just living his life.
Fave quote about Barry. When he was at Oklahoma State. Thurman Thomas was 1st string and Barry was 2nd string. Before the game against Oklahoma, OU coach Barry Switzer tells his defense "Whatever you do, do NOT hurt Thurman!!"
100% and Thurman Thomas was also a Great Running Back
Class act back then and a class act today. Looking for a role model athlete for the kids? Here he is.
As a Lions Fan I Love you Barry!!!!
Such a humble man. Freaking love you Barry
GREATEST EVER!!! BARRY SANDERS HAS NO COMPARISON. REAL HUMBLE, GREAT MAN.
If your young and you’ve never seen a Barry Sanders nightlight reel you haven’t seen a real running back. He was The Cat
One of the best RB. His running style could never be duplicated.
I am a Detroiter that signed the petition to get Barry traded to a team that had a chance back then. I'm rooting for Matt.
I love Barry Sanders! And his laugh. Lol.
A freak running back, a humble man, no idiot celebrations, big hits. He stood by the Lions and never complained. Yeah it was a diff game.
Retired in his peak rather than chase a ring. Respect!!!
Greatest Running Back ALL TIME. Only Walter Payton can be argued.
It can’t be argued well
Saying Walter is better is like saying Lebron is better than Michael Jordan. You know how great Lebron is but when you rewatch Jordan highlights you’re like….naw Jordan the GOAT.
Don’t let the Barry’s Dad’s soul hear you disrespect Jim Brown like that
…Barry would go around to the HS’s in metro Detroit and dunk as part of anti drug/stay in school program. Hope I’m not the only one to remember that
Legend
I enjoy Barry's laugh 😆
Such a class act. The goat of RBS.
God blessed us with Barry Sanders!!
I remember the local public access cable channel in metro Detroit would show the celebrity basketball games and dunk contents with Barry.
The King of Running Backs, Barry Sanders 🙌
The GOAT!!
great interview Rich.
Barry is my favorite footballer
The funny thing is my father, who played fall and bball, said the same thing. That's how he groomed us. The footwork from one sport will help you in another. Never understood it until now.
Greatest RB
GOAT love you man¡¡ youre the reason i became a Lion, wish you the best Barry
Barry Sanders is like man I wish I would have thought of that (in regards to Matthew Stafford Question)
I'm sure he did, however like he said he felt they wouldn't of done it back then.
The greatest football player of all time
So damn humble.
Bestest
I still blame the Lions for his retirement. Benching Scott Mitchell for a rookie Charlie Batch! C'mon man!
I was actually at the Bengals game in the Silverdome that got him benched... his last 2 passes were picks... including a pick 6 in OT.
People were tearing the Silverdome apart screaming for Mitchell to be benched after the game. I get it.
@@Boondoggle_Mollywop I may be wrong, but I recall Barry stating Mitchell gives them the best chance to win or something of that nature. Maybe I'm making that up though. I just remember it being a hot mess with Bobby Ross.
@@BobbyLips It was definitely a hot mess with Ross, but you also could say that about most lions coaches.
I don't remember the Barry quote, but I'd believe it. The fans definitely disagreed that Mitchell was our best chance at the time though.
Scott Mitchell wasn't the answer. He had one really good season in 95' and a good season in 97' but gagged in the wildcard game both years. I was happy to see him leave.
Barry Sanders, was that guy.
GOAT running back, save for Walter Payton, no question.
Man, the lions should have done for Sanders what they did for Matt
And Calvin.
my boy stafford and the rams gonna take it all this year watch
The best has to be that cowboy game, where the linemen couldn't find him
I call it the Hokey-Pokey play. He put his whole body in, jumped his whole body out, ran around the unsuspecting defense, and shook it all about in the end zone.
Hall of fame person too!!
Classy lad 👌.
Does it cost money to subscribe?
“Decent hops” Barry, you are 5’8 doing windmills, dunking in traffic and double pump between the legs… I think that’s a bit MORE than “decent hops” 😅😂😅
If you have your 5 you always play with, you don't drop one for nobody, don't care if Jordan himself walks in through that door. That said, I'd be the one my guys would of dropped.
GOAT
once a lion always a lion
Screw Barry Sanders....as a young fan I became a lions fan in CA. He retired and broke my heart. I'm forever a lions fan because of this dude. Now I got to deal with people asking me why I'm a lions fan. Saw CJ came in and got HOF. Hopefully Stafford gets a ring so that being a lions fan don't sting so much.
"He wasn't trying to win." - The only time Barry wasn't humble and he's talking about pick up basketball. 🤣😂
john randle hardy nickerson warren sapp
Sanders is all class, Eisen....not so much
Rams by 6
Why you lying Barry being from Detroit right in the middle of it 98 with my dad and grandpa you wanted out but you knew the lions was never gonna trade you so you left. all respect 🙏🏽 to you for that cause that organization was 💩🤡
Barry was too busy running past people to see who got juked.
not even ford sr was that stupid to ever let barry go...........
