Rudi doesn't get as much credit because he only had 3 seasons of 1k+ yards in his 8 year career, and he only averaged 4.1 YPC over those 3 seasons. He also added basically nothing as a receiver.
Dillon has nearly twice as many yards and did it surrounded by much less talent. He took lemons and made lemonade. Peak Palmer vs Kitna/Blake/Akili. Dillon at 30 years old showed us what could have been for his career if he was surrounded by better talent.
Brooks and Woods get the recognition because of the SB, but Dillon is in a league of his own.
Agree with TLL. Love Rudi but he also had a great O-line, much better than Dillon had.
