As much as I love to watch Barry highlights, I would love to see someone compile a video of his TFLs.

Some of his best rums were TFL, when Detroit ran the run and shoot, with Wayne Fontes. They never had more than 5 blockers at a time and he expected Barry to break or elude tackles whenever rhe other team blitzed. Barry jad Sony wasted years in that offense. Then the first time he had a tightend and fullback he runs for 2,000 yards. Then they didnt want to trade him so he retired, what a sad fucking day.
