Arguing Greatest RB is like arguing whether Wilt Chamberlain or Michael Jordan is the best player ever in basketball. Opinions.

I'd probably take Bill Russell, or Oscar Robertson as best ever -- but that is just an opinion as well.

Jim Brown was excellent, Smith holds the records though because he did it longer. Sanders was great, but he played on awful teams.

With that said Earl Campbell is my vote for best ever -- if you discount longevity. I loved watching him run.

<edit> I forgot to include Walter Payton... no GREAT running back discussion can be had without including his name, IMO.
