I think the record posted here is concerning the single game yardage, not the TDs.

no work ethic from Barry? ...where are we getting this from? The last mini-bio I read of him, it commented on his overcoming of his issue size, hence the reason the OSU (Cowboys) program was the only school interested in him coming out of high school...I never saw Barry Sanders lacking work ethic...you sure about that?

As to comparing Barry to LT, there is no comparison, Barry never have a lottery pick QB, or a decent O line. LT was supposed to be the next Barry, but he wasn't. Barry retired because he did not want to break Walter Payton's all time rushing record, because he loved and respected Payton so much. If you think RB's havn't always been big take a look at some Jim Brown videos, he was bigger than any RB today.

accualy Howard Griffith set the record in 1990 with 8 rushing TDs in a single game

but barry sanders had a shitty o-line and is still crazy!

lclarke34 (December 31, 1969 at 5:59 pm)

oh and rizzo the reason y barry sanders didnt come back and play is becuz he himself said he could not do it because the game wasnt in him nemore

lclarke34 (December 31, 1969 at 5:59 pm)

man u still can't compare any rb from the present to any of them in the past. its not really fair when people do that seeing that now players are stronger faster and just better. not to mention the more advanced systems played. the league is growing and with that so are the players so u can't compare LT to barry

i find this funny Barry sanders had the sorriest line in the nfl and broke so many tackles it was unreal if u eevr saw him play u would know what i mena. LT is a sick rb but doesnt compare sorry ur just a homer

Those of you who made negative comments about Barry Sanders obviously don't know what the hell you're talking about. No heart? Get a clue jerk off. Barry could come back today and play.
