Your Weekly Affirmation That Shady McCoy May Just Be The Next Barry Sanders

As far as the greatest Running Back in NFL history goes, Barry Sanders is number one and Walter Payton/Gale Sayers/Jim Brown aren’t even close behind him. We hesitate to ever compare another back to Sanders – much like we would NEVER compare another basketball player to Michael Jordan – but, damn, Shady may be freaking close!

Hyperbole or not, the cuts he makes and the way he stops and turns on a dime, are reminiscent of one Running Back and one Running Back only: Barry.
