Wendell Tyler...Homer picks
Okay, but if you're going that route then let's include Steven Jackson, Lawrence McCutcheon, Jim Bertelsen, Willie Ellison, Todd Gurley and 'Jaguar Jon' Arnett, hmmmm?

Of course, Eric Dickerson and Marshall Faulk would be the Top Two... 8-) :) :idea:

RAM SEASON!!

I would argue McCutcheon would be #3 on my list of All time Rams RB's. SJ would probably be 4 and Gurley 5

Holy shit how could I forget about Gurley?! He's top 10 all-time except for the shortened career of course. But during his prime, he's probably right at the top 5 (all teams) for me...McCutcheon was great, Bertelsen I probably put behind Larry Smith even...

Gurley for sure is in the Rams Top 5: ED, Faulk, McCutcheon, Gurley, Jackson IMO

let's look at the " Top 5 " per say. In no specific order. I put 10 in
Walter Payton
Jim Brown
Emmitt Smith.....definitely not in my top 5 but a lot of people will put him in
ED
Barry Sanders
Billy Sims....yes I know a lot of people won't agree but Billy was a man amongst boys before he got hurt.
OJ......just can not put him in for obvious reasons
Gale Sayers...on the fence with him
Tony Dorsett
Marshall Faulk.....Ram homer here
I didn't what to go off the rails but I loved Marshal Faulk. I don't know what game it was I believe playoffs clock was running out and Rams may have been in no huddle offense. A play was run and time was ticking off Marshall literally picked Flipper Anderson up to get him in position and start the next play. A small antidote of his professionalism, team leader, situational awareness, and drive to win.
I remember that particular play. Don't think it was Flipped though. I don't think that they played together.

You maybe right Rams fan. It nay not have been Flip, maybe Bruce or Holt. But I think it was a WR. AI says it never happened. But it was a memorable play.

Would be cool to do a poll on what people think of top 5 Rams RB of all time..
