1) Adrian Peterson
2) Walter Payton
3) Barry Sanders

So take a moment and vote for the dude you think belongs next in the list. If you think someone else should get the vote, simply post the name and I'll add him to the poll.

Thanks for participating !

His reply: "Without a doubt, it's Walter Payton. He's at the top of the list. Trust me, top of the list."

Apparently, people in here don't think this is a worthwhile endeavor.

Okee dokee.

I voted for Dickerson, but I could be convinced Jim Brown is the correct answer.

Ever since “ bountygate “, a more subtle shift has taken place to include ankles into the mix.
