The crazy thing about Barry is.... he lost WAAAYYYYY more yardage than anybody on this list because he spent a lot of times running sideways or even backwards, due to the fact that he was playing behind subpar OL, and getting hit in the backfield. Sometimes he had to make dudes miss, before he could get near the LOS. All that said, I need you to think about this.... In Jim Brown's era, he was bigger than some of the OL that was blocking for him and some of the DL and LBs trying to tackle him. He had to look like a **** OT running with 4. 4 speed with the football in his hands. WOW! Jim Brown has the BEST avg. per carry in NFL History. He averaged 5.2 yds per carry. Barry averaged 5.0 yds per carry. Think about that. If he had decent NFL OL, he would blow this discussion into orbit. No doubt Barry is the GOAT RB. Incredible.
