Agree 100%. Steve Young, Troy Aikman, John Elway & even Brett Favre had excellent running backs to get their rings. Montana had Roger Craig for 3 of his 4 rings.
So glad I ran across this. Totally forgot bout R Watters…niners have had sooo many underated backs..frank gore, garrison Hearst, watters, roger Craig 🙇🙇🙇HOF… Wendell Tyler, delvin Williams, Wilbur Jackson, Carlos Hyde…….. Thanx for the memories
The most underrated H back in the history of the game 2nd round pick by the San Francisco 49ers in 1991 Super Bowl 🏟 XXIX Champion In 1995 Also played with the Philadelphia Eagles 🦅 and Seattle Seahawks 🐦 10,000+ rushing yards and 4,500 reception yards in his 10 year pro career (1991-2001)
Pretty good back for a good stretch in the early to mid 90"s but he did fumble a little to much but still a talented guy who never gets talked about that much.
The Niners should have signed him again in '95, once Watters was gone, their chance for a repeat or Championship #66 greatly diminished and the Niners were never the same because they had no running game.
They couldn't. The 49ers cheated on the salary cap so badly in 1994 to win a Super Bowl. They had to let go Deion, Watters just as a start to making the cap in 1995.
They wanted to sign him, but the eagles offer a huge contract, and he sign it. I was very upset when he left san Fran, bt I understood it. he already has a super bowl ring, plus he would be paid a lot more so it's kind of like if one of us got a promotion that's a job we work at the NFL is not just a game matter fact it's more of a business then the game years later Waters said that he should have stayed in San Fran his numbers in his career are outstanding but he is not in the Hall of Fame and I think it was due to 1 incident where he was going for a past the middle of the field and he saw he was going to get hit by one of the safeties so he pulled his arms back not to catch the football after the game they asked him why did he do that and his response was for who for what
I was just 10 years old when Ricky left the 49ers. I didn't really think twice about it. But now 30 years later, it makes sense why the 49ers didn't spend big money to keep him. He was always fun to watch
I think it was that year where they had the first NFL game ever ...against the Bills .. in which there was no punt by either team. Both offenses were insane. K gun, boy. smh.
Out of nowhere he came to mind tonight. Checked his stats. 4.1 ypc and 10,000+ yards in 9+ years. That's a HOF career. He's not in. He belongs. No doubt.
He looks unusually tall for a RB but an awesome all around back nonetheless. The West Coast Offense seems to rely heavely on the RBs & FBs catching passes.
Loved the Niners in the 80s and 90s. Watters is like a 6 foot Barry Sanders. The good ol' days of Niner football. Amp Lee, Dexter Carter, Brent Jones, Nate Singleton, William Floyd, JJ Stokes, Derrick Loville ...wow old names.
As a fan since he first stepped on the Notre Dame campus, and looking at just the 49er highlights, can someone run it by me one...more...time, why Ricky "Running" Waters is not in the HOF?
Yo god.. do you have any Randall Cunningham? Bro definitely deserves his just due. The original guy that revolutionized the QB position. I've only seen the same basic documentary footage on here.
Y'all are talking crazy. He was not a better overall runner than Barry Sanders and Barry had great hands they just didn't use him like that. Y'all are some weirdos lol
One of 49ers biggest mistake, not signing Ricky back. What a drop off after he left. That really hurt the 49ers Offense for years. Ricky should have retired a 49er.
Him not going after that pass might have kept him out of the HOF..which was to bad. He was a very good back, who brought a winning attitude to the 49ers and came up big in SB..I liked him best with 49ers...was sort of a perfect fit for awhile...He was sort of immature, but liked his passion with SF.
This dude is so underrated it's sickening 🤔 He's one of the best running backs to ever play the game. I remember how fast he could get to that sideline and turn up field. Let's not forget he had some of the best hands too. One of the best receiving running back's to do it. To keep him out of the HOF for being a bit cocky, is the absolute dumbest, hypocritical shit they could have done. There were so many other trash talking dudes to get in. What is up with them and the Niners? Roger Craig was another RB they completely shitted on. Frank Gore didn't even make the NFL network's all time list. Like seriously? He's a few yards behind Barry Sanders on the all time rushing list. Do these people smoke crack or what? Frank is a HOF running back, but he doesn't make the all time list? That is utter bullshit. He's earned it. Truly fucking disgusting. They had the nerve to put Adrian on the list and not Gore. I would like to know why? We are talking about a one of the best running backs of all time. Shit, he's still doing at the age of 36.
Gang gang. The original High Stepper. Still don't know how that 94' Chargers team made the Super Bowl. Definitely one of the worse Super Bowl participants of all time.
I think in the next 10 years a lot of the 10,000yd+ career rushers are going to get hard looks at the HOF. With the declined usage of backs in general and so many of them being replaced by the age of 30, Derrick Henry and Ezekiel Elliott may be the last two to even cross 10,000yds. I'd like to think the guys that won Super Bowls rings like Ricky Watters, Ottis Anderson, Corey Dillon, Marshawn Lynch & Jamal Lewis might have just a little extra on the resume, but good arguments can be made for all of them. I think we all know Adrian Peterson & Frank Gore are no brainers.
His teams depended on him too much and he tried to break every run or punish defenders subtly and lost the ball a lot running hard. A mix between Roger Craig and Dickerson style wise. Forgotten Super Bowl MVP
Don't get me wrong haters im a niner fan yes i know of course Mr rogers neighberhood but the word of the day is water 💦 k dale bang bang niner gang 😎🎧🎛️🔊🎼🎼🎵🎶🎶
Biggest jerk in football that I can recall. Could have had 2 more Super Bowl Rings. Greed sent him to the pathetic Eagles. Wanted more money than Jerry Rice. After brilliant performance in only Superbowl for Steve Young.
Yeah, Steve Young threw for 6 TDs in that SuperBowl against the Chargers, but Ricky Watters caught two of them and rushed for another. Absolutely two brilliant performances by Young and Watters.

One of the greats! Dude never got the credit he deserved!
that's why i made his video......and I'm going to make a video when he was with the eagles and seahawks
Cameron Hart Should be in the Hall
For who? For what?
I know Montana is the GOAT, but I love Young and his crew better. So fun to watch
The most underrated back of the 90’s
Look up the video “NFL players who should be in the HOF Ricky Watters”. It’s a joke the reasons people give. He snubbed
100%
Agree 100%. Steve Young, Troy Aikman, John Elway & even Brett Favre had excellent running backs to get their rings. Montana had Roger Craig for 3 of his 4 rings.
Him and *Chris* *Warren* . Yea.
His mouth wasn't lol
THESE WERE THE GOOD OLD DAYS DAMMM I MISS THEM MERTON HANKS BABY
From the Eagles to the Niners that boy always was a grinder one of the smoothest runners ever put him in the HOF asap
actually it was 9ers to philly, he was drafted by S.F.
So glad I ran across this. Totally forgot bout R Watters…niners have had sooo many underated backs..frank gore, garrison Hearst, watters, roger Craig 🙇🙇🙇HOF… Wendell Tyler, delvin Williams, Wilbur Jackson, Carlos Hyde……..
Thanx for the memories
He should be in the Hall of Fame
RICKY WATERS ONE OF THE GREATEST RB EVER 9ER NATION 2018!!!!
Niners for life and Ricky was one of the greatest ever💯
The most underrated H back in the history of the game
2nd round pick by the San Francisco 49ers in 1991
Super Bowl 🏟 XXIX Champion In 1995
Also played with the Philadelphia Eagles 🦅 and Seattle Seahawks 🐦
10,000+ rushing yards and 4,500 reception yards in his 10 year pro career (1991-2001)
Should be considered by the Hall of Fame............
Perhaps Chris Warren beats him in underratedness. depends.
believe it or not he was my role model I wore 32 from peewee 2 high school.
Ricky Watters in my book has always been a Hall of Famer. Look at his stars. The numbers don't Lie!
Young and Waters shredded my Cowboys on that drive
Ricky Waters was the man!!!
Pretty good back for a good stretch in the early to mid 90"s but he did fumble a little to much but still a talented guy who never gets talked about that much.
David Holcomb for who?! For what?!
Show stopper. Damn good football player.
thank you thank you thank you !! always posting classic players ... i remember having his trading card when he played for the eagles ! true beast!
u welcome.....and I still have all my cards....my card collection is amazing......
I miss him on the eagles he was a beast
Rathman was a bad ass Fullback opening lanes!!!
He had a spin move but when he went to phili the move left him he turned more of power back rem he wore theat big neck sleeve inside his uni
That play call at 5:50 you dont see that no more
The Niners should have signed him again in '95, once Watters was gone, their chance for a repeat or Championship #66 greatly diminished and the Niners were never the same because they had no running game.
Drooblemeister very true San Fran didn't have a consistent running game until Frank Gore
yes that probably cost SF a repeat in 95
@@charlesconner9044 Garrison Hearst?

And you saw the reason why they didn't go back to the SB
That offset formation use to kill on the Madden
definitely underrated.
THE GHOST OF CANDLESTICK PARK CHECKING IN....Legend says Ricky RETIRED LT after that 5 touchdown game....Man the stadium was ROCKING that day!!!
Ricky was so dope n da City!
I think it was that year where they had the first NFL game ever ...against the Bills .. in which there was no punt by either team.
Both offenses were insane.
K gun, boy. smh.
Out of nowhere he came to mind tonight. Checked his stats. 4.1 ypc and 10,000+ yards in 9+ years. That's a HOF career. He's not in. He belongs. No doubt.
Should be in The Hall.. Absolutely
Packers vs the 49ers is always great when the field is muddy
He looks unusually tall for a RB but an awesome all around back nonetheless. The West Coast Offense seems to rely heavely on the RBs & FBs catching passes.
I think he started as WR at Notre Dame but went to halfback
One cut demon
Loved the Niners in the 80s and 90s. Watters is like a 6 foot Barry Sanders. The good ol' days of Niner football. Amp Lee, Dexter Carter, Brent Jones, Nate Singleton, William Floyd, JJ Stokes, Derrick Loville ...wow old names.

Yo god.. do you have any Randall Cunningham? Bro definitely deserves his just due. The original guy that revolutionized the QB position. I've only seen the same basic documentary footage on here.
I'm a try to make Randall Cunningham video.......
My second favorite running back of the 90s behind Barry Sanders. Especially as a 49er, he was faster and more elusive with them!
Waters was a better all around RB than Sanders.
I liked him better than Barry and I'm from Detroit. Ricky was a smoother runner, reminded me of Dickerson (my all-time favorite)...
Y'all are talking crazy. He was not a better overall runner than Barry Sanders and Barry had great hands they just didn't use him like that. Y'all are some weirdos lol
Ricky was nice!!
One of 49ers biggest mistake, not signing Ricky back. What a drop off after he left. That really hurt the 49ers Offense for years. Ricky should have retired a 49er.
Ricky watters looks like ving rhames little brother lol
NOTHING BUT THE BEST!
The fact that he is NOT in the hall of fame is a joke
He should be in the HOF.
Jsn good job on the highlights
Ricky Watters, Steve Young, William Floyd, Jerry Rice, Brent Jones and John Taylor. Best offense of all time.
The greatest show on turf Rams was the best all-time
Him not going after that pass might have kept him out of the HOF..which was to bad. He was a very good back, who brought a winning attitude to the 49ers and came up big in SB..I liked him best with 49ers...was sort of a perfect fit for awhile...He was sort of immature, but liked his passion with SF.
I'm a raider fan but even I know this guy should be in the Hall of fame. Like what the fuck is the problem
Watters looking like O.J.

Gang Gang....
Jsn Walker on the G lol.
lol
What about Denver? At least they cracked 20 points lol. Denver with Peyton could only muster 8 points haha.
That '82 dolphins squad was the worst, IMO
Rickyyyyy!!!!

I am glad that you didn't hide away his garbage behavior.
I still would like a shawn springs video
I know homie........i can't say when but i'm a try to make it
Thank u
Just pulled a signed Panini card out with a jersey patch checking him out cause I never seen any of his highlights
Don't get me wrong haters im a niner fan yes i know of course Mr rogers neighberhood but the word of the day is water 💦 k dale bang bang niner gang 😎🎧🎛️🔊🎼🎼🎵🎶🎶
Went to Seattle didn't do nothing should had stayed with my 9ERS much respect though
He had more yards with Seattle, than with the 49ers.
He went to eagles after SF & put up great numbers & went to Seattle and had 3 straight 1,200 yds seasons at the end of his career. You're all wrong
Dont forget he featured with Method Man on a sic track
I miss The Stick
Did anyone that the runner was still trying to gain yards & didn't know he stepped out , that was a bad call.
true
He had problem with fumbles.
So did Hoard but id have both on my team e-:
Roger Craig should be in the HOF before this clown.
Biggest jerk in football that I can recall. Could have had 2 more Super Bowl Rings. Greed sent him to the pathetic Eagles. Wanted more money than Jerry Rice. After brilliant performance in only Superbowl for Steve Young.
Snake Oiler 12 they're all greedy
He needed money hes a man
Yeah, Steve Young threw for 6 TDs in that SuperBowl against the Chargers, but Ricky Watters caught two of them and rushed for another. Absolutely two brilliant performances by Young and Watters.
He definitely HOFer
What about his brother Rocket Ismail?
I made a Rocket Ismail video...........and I didn't know they were brothers?
Rocket Ismail Ismail isn't his brother 😂😂😂 !! Quadry Ismail is the rocket brother
Marcus Allen please
I'm a try to make his video one day...........That's my guy
For Who for what. Please tell me you have that.
i wish i did homie.......
BadSeed Black1911 could be in the Hall of fame. His numbers say he belongs. 4 who? 4 what? May always haunt him
For who? For what?
