Ricky Watters? I love Ricky but I don’t know a bout that. According to the list of all time rushers, there are probably a couple guys who should be ahead of him.List of National Football League career rushing yards leaders - Wikipedia
Would you believe Edgerrin James’ carries and yards are nearly identical to Marcus Allen? Allen has nearly double the TDs but I personally don’t put a lot of stock in that stat. [/snip]
Ricky Watters absolutely belongs in the Hall. The ONLY guy not in that’s even a question, to me, is LTomlinson. Everything Marshall Faulk did, Ricky did first. I believe Ricky’s not in the Hall because he told everyone how great he was and he left no doubts that he was in the game to get paid.
After Google, it appears I’m NOT the only person that thinks Ricky Watters is a Hall of Famer.

The numbers don’t lie. Especially telling, to me anyway, is the list of similar players at each stage of his career. It’s littered with HoF’ers, Barry Sanders, Dorsett, Jim Brown, Payton, Sayers, Allen … on and on and on.
Starting to look like a personality issue. Though I LOVED the guy!
