    Ivory averaged 4.6 last season, that is way above average. With his 222 pounds and Johnson speed, is there a better thunder & lightnin' tandum in the league?

    So tell me Avante, what were some of the legendary THUNDER & LIGHTNIN' duo's?


    No problem squirt.

    Red "The Galloping Ghost" Grange and Bronko Nagurski Chicago Bears. Two Hall of Famers who were the perfect spreed and power combo. Way back in the 20's.

    Then there was "Mr. Outside" Glenn Davis (9.6 sprinter) and "Mr. Inside" Doc Blanchard at Army, both would win the Heisman.

    Jimmy Brown, and Bobby Mitc (sprint/hurdles champ Big10) both in the HOF, Mitc as more of a receiver with Washington.

    Jim Taylor and Paul "The Golden Boy" Hornung, Taylor a real thumper while Hornung could do it all, even kick.

    Larry Csonka and Eugene "Mercury" Morris, nobody was more powerful than the Csonk, and few running backs returned kicks, the Merc had those kinds of jets.

    How do you do that, wow! Ok so tell me Avante, how would you rank my Redskin backs?

    Here ya go amigo.

    1.John Riggins***
    2.Clinton Portis
    3.Larry Brown
    4.Stephen Davis
    5.Terry Allen
    6.Joe Washington
    7.Alfred Morris....will be moving up.
    8.Timmy Smith....one game wonder.
    9.Don Bosseler...who?
    10. James...who?


    ***Finally saw that video of Big John winning the Kansas State 100 yard dash in 9.8 as a high schooler. He was probably around 210 at that time and chiseled. People forget he started off as a Jet and had a 1000 yard season. The Redskin Riggins was around 235.

    No problem my friend.

    1.Marcus Allen USC...as smooth as silk, deadly inside the red zone.
    2.Bo Jackson Auburn...the with stats, this guy was the best speed with size combo we've seen.
    3.Clemon Daneils Prairie Vierw...their first 1000 yard rusher and one of the toip three/dour backs in AFL history.
    4.Mark Van Eeghan Colgate....best slow back ever.
    5.Naoplean Kaufman Washington....a Cali 100m champ, this cat had some serious quicks.
    6.Marv Hubbard Colgate....another Colgate? Talk about a bruisier.
    7.Clarence Davis USC...one of the better receiving backs.
    8.Hewritt Dixon FAMU...see Marv Hubbard.
    9.Justin Fargas USC....a Cali 100m champ, thought he'd be a little better.
    10.Darren McFadden Arkansas....?????

    Charlie Garner should be up there even though he was only around for a few years.

    That was about those who were drafted by the Raiders, sorry I didn't make that clear. Notice no Roger Craig?
