    Over the years we've seen teams with a great QB, RB and WR all there at the same team. We can go back to the 50's with the Niners and Y.A. tle three HOF running backs in Joe "The Jet" Perry, Hugh "The King" McElhenny and John Henry Johnson with Billy Wilson a stud receiver to the Dallas Cowboys with Aikman/Smith/Irvin or Buffalo with Kelly/Thomas/Reed. So what team has the best triplets today?

    Who can give me three teams where their triplets are all in the Hall of Fame? (other than the Cowboys mentioned)

    While here....

    The white running back...hmmm?

    I'm going to list all the teams and that teams best white running back or maybe a couple. I'm not going wayyyyyyyyy back there to Bronko and the Galloping Ghost. I'll start in the 50's.

    Texans...none.

    ie Post with the Chargers led the AFC in rushing one season, 900 and some yards.

    The Cards John David Crow a Heisman winner as was the Oilers Billy Cannon and the Rams John Cappelleti.

    "Jaguar" Jon Arnett a long jumper while at USC, Hugh "The King" McElheny a HS hurdles champ, Billy Cannon a 9.5 sprinter while at LSU.

    Size with speed is a black thing, we just don't find big fast elusive white running backs, their like a white female sprinter, non existant.
