Roger Craig was the pioneer of the dual threat running back, but Thurman Thomas revolutionized it.

Most underrated RB of all-time. One of the all-time greats yet you never hear about him. Wild.

@MooreVoicesMedia 2 жыл бұрын

Some how, some way it appears great receiving backs are penalized for having hands. Marshall Faulk I feel suffers from this. I am just realizing that Thomas might have run THE best wheel routes in football.

I'm so glad the Pro Bowl team has Thurman and Bo together. So many blowout victories on both of their backs.

I'm a Lions fan and I love Barry Sanders above all RBs. Gotta remember that Barry backed up Thurman in college at OSU, though. Maybe one of the best 1-2 punch RB combos in college football in my lifetime. Respect.

@erinfreize4717 5 жыл бұрын

He would put up at least 100 yards of production every Sunday, catching the ball all over the field, running sideline to sideline, or right through the (very good) line, then break ankles in the open field. One of the best backs ever, on one of the most prolific offenses ever. I remember the toss play in the first Madden worked almost every time for a huge gain. Then Bruce would get 10 sacks a game- they were so good!!

Perfect back in that K-Gun offense. Would punish you many different ways. Considering the era, they had a really potent offense. Shame they couldn’t beat NYG in that 1st SB. That was, by far, their best opportunity.

@buffalobear2641 5 жыл бұрын

If they had fantasy football in the 90s he'd have been the no brainer first pick in every draft for 4 years straight... but he's not considered in the same class as Barry or Emmitt. People are dumb.

He wasn't a guy who was the best at any ONE thing - wasn't the absolute best at moves, speed, acceleration, breaking tackles, power, etc. But he was really really good at all of those things, and catching, and pass blocking. Might be the most complete running back in history - Herschel Walker is the only one who's close, and only because he was also a dangerous kick returner too.
