	OJ Simpson may be remembered for other things, but he was a pretty darn good RB.

	i was definitely thinking more along the lines of Jamal or even Mark when i got Ottis to pop up for me

	ChadFeldheimer:	Oct 19th, 2010 at 17:44 GMT	1 point
	More people got Larry Johnson than Walter Payton? Wow.

	mattv1:	Oct 19th, 2010 at 17:52 GMT	47 points
	Man, OJ would kill me if he knew I forgot about him on this quiz.

	ChadFeldheimer: In Payton's defense, "Johnson" is a common last name that's more likely to be revealed when Sporclers start grasping for answers. But Payton is still one of the first RB's to come to mind when I take these, so you may still have a point.

	That's because people just guess the name "Johnson". It's a pretty common name.

	alpha:	Oct 19th, 2010 at 18:08 GMT	2 points
	Johnson also happens to be the last name of one of the two best current runners in the league right now. I'm betting a fair percentage got Larry try Chris

	@alpha Two? Chris and who else?

	I was thinking of Jim Taylor, so it gave me Fred Taylor. not bad. honestly thought of Stephen Davis and got Terrell Davis. I thought of O.J. Anderson, so it gave me Ottis Anderson. then was like "o why not OJ Simpson".

	Nuclear_Knuckles:	Oct 19th, 2010 at 18:51 GMT	6 points
	Luke, OJ Anderson is the same person as Ottis (can't tell from your comment if you realize that).

	yea yea def. lol too bad they don't go pre-1960 or you might get Bronco Nagurski on there or Elroy Crazy Legs Hirsch

	Go_Huskers:	Oct 19th, 2010 at 19:09 GMT	15 points
	I can't count how many times I typed "Allen," thinking it must be an error that an all-time great like Marcus Allen isn't on this list. How is that possible? Well, despite having an 11-game streak of 100-yard Rushing games at one point in his career, Marcus Allen only totaled 25. Shows what I know.

	@nuclear_knuckles Elroy Hirsch was a wide receiver, not a running back

	hiflew:	Oct 19th, 2010 at 21:08 GMT	1 point
	Bronko (k not c) Nagurski had very few if any 100 yard games since he was the fullback. He was the bruiser that would guarantee the 2 yard gain but rarely would bust one.

	Interesting how Barry retired before breaking many of Sweetness' records, but Emmitt went ahead and snapped 'em. Not that it was wrong for Emmitt to do so, but Barry stopped in his prime, while Emmitt arguably played longer than he should have just for the records.

	Luke Pontorno:	Oct 19th, 2010 at 21:30 GMT	5 points
	a lot of people including me were baffled when Barry retired. As a Packer fan, of course I was happy. Since the 90s, there are only two people I ever feared in that division, and that was Barry Sanders and Randy moss.

	I ran through the current NFL teams as guesses--no wonder I missed a Houston Oiler and a Buffalo Bill.

	Emmitt Smith can credit his ridiculous O line for most of those 100 yard games. Sanders got all his on one of the worst teams in football.

	sevilfla:	Oct 19th, 2010 at 23:56 GMT	2 points
	gottem all but the juice and ricky watters. always forget ricky's years out west putting up good numbers. i too also tried allen and four times and tried three different spelling of riggins.

	My only miss was Barry Sanders. Barry freaking Sanders. I have no words for this embarrassment.

	How does Tony Dorsett get forgotten so easily on so many all-time running back quizzes? The guy won a National Title, Heisman, Super Bowl, and is in the Hall of Fame.

	RyanUR:	Oct 20th, 2010 at 02:00 GMT	-4 points
	For what? For who?

	bluerum29:	Oct 20th, 2010 at 02:30 GMT	1 point
	Shocked at some of the ones I missed; Holmes, Green, Barber, Campbell, and James.

	ktappe:	Oct 20th, 2010 at 03:11 GMT	-1 points
	I was about to post asking how one earth 72% got "Thomas Jones" whom I've never heard of while only 1/2 that got hall-of-famers Franco Harris and Tony Dorsett. But @Quinto explained it; Jones is a common last name that a bunch of people tried. I didn't think of taking that angle on the quiz. Oops.

	MattCortese:	Oct 20th, 2010 at 20:06 GMT	1 point
	ktappe- Jones has been around for 11 years, and only has been a starter for the 5 before this year (he splits with Jamaal Charles this year). In each of those years he's had 1,119 or more. Very good tough RB.

	I miss Jim Brown..but I get Ricky Watters...sheesh.

	Those 100 yards games are a lot easier to come by since 1980.

	omnipotent1:	Oct 23rd, 2010 at 02:25 GMT	2 points
	It seems funny that players get 100 yard games more in recent history than in the old days when running was the main offence since passing was seen as too risky to lose the ball.
