I think part of the argument isn't that Rudi's were "way better". I mean, they definitely were, but they also weren't very good in the grand scheme of things. Rudi wasn't an efficient back. Benson was a horridly inefficient back. There's definitely nuance there. They played with rather different teams around them and it's fine to contextualize it but I am of the opinion that the context simply doesn't change the outcome.

A more fair argument would be BJGE vs. Benson.
