Is Barry Sanders the worst running back of all time?
I had this argument before Lebron won his ring last year. I've always been one to think that in team sports, rings are not the primary indicator of greatness. For example, to me Melo is hands down the best basketball player, even though he'll probably never win a chip. Knowing that he probably won't win, his talent doesn't change in my eyes.
Getting back to the point, in my argument my boy was just going on how Lebron can't be one of the greatest because he hasn't won anything. Then I said if that's the case then Barry Sanders has to be the worst RB then because he only won one playoff game let alone even getting close to a Superbowl, which of course he said wasn't the same because it's a team game![what :what: :what:](https://www.thecoli.com/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/what.png)
My question is if rings carry so much weight (i.e. Lebron), then how can someone like Sanders be HoF and elite and he didn't win shyt?
