šŸˆ šŸˆ Bama In The NFL - 2024-25 Season Updates & Highlights

In his ninth season, Henry tallied 147 today and slashed past OJ (11 seasons) and Corey Dillon (10 seasons) to secure the 20th all time spot. With one game left, he's 67 yards behind John Riggins (15 seasons) and 153 behind Stephen Jackson (12 seasons) to get to 19 and 18, respectively.

In the Browns loss earlier this year, Henry had 11 for 73, with Jackson putting it up 38 times.
I remember Dillon. It's mainly due to how Bama played football in Stalling's last year: ground and pound. Lord knows I wasn't paying much attention to UW back then. Why, right? His one season up there caught my attention.

However, I didn't realize he's been that good in the league. He's no different from Jackson. Who was paying attention to Oregon State's rushing attack in the early 2000's?

None of my boys even knew the name John Riggins. Really powerful back with some speed. "You mean he was the Mike Allstot of his day?". No, not just a fullback, although Allstot was an awesome player until injured. Had to show them some highlight film on Riggins.

Riggins was a beast... Can't recall the exact game may have even been a Superbowl where he basically took over the game. That Washington team loved to ground and pount and Riggins was vital in executing that strategy.

It was the SB XVII that he took over and one of his TD was on 4th and 1, I think? But it the player that had a chance to stop him just bound off him.

That player was Don McNeal.

I was a Dallas fan when he was playing: remember him well.

I saw a note posted on X an hour or so about talking about AYPC. I probably knew this and it just didn't 'click.' Derrick is only behind Jim Brown and Barry Sanders on this list.
 
Yeah that was one of the plays I had in mind... Riggins was a big guy and most DB's were going to struggle bringing him down one on one so McNeal was not alone.
Funny thing about this and the team party to celebrity it, the party was the night before going to the White House to see President Reagan. Riggins was so drunk he over sleep and miss meeting the President.
