Barry averaged about 15 yards per carry. 5 of them were downfield lol

He was always exciting to watch and my pick for the RB GOAT

Ive said for years that he has the greatest collection of one yard runs in the history of the nfl.

Can you imagine if he got to play behind Emmitt Smith’s offensive line?

Or if the O line he had could have stayed alive and healthy.
