No one's talking about Kitna or Mitchell. That point doesn't even make sense. Say Boomer, say Chad, say Krumrie- say someone who's actually being considered. Then we can talk. Stop reaching for a low-hanging fruit that isn't even on the tree.

More importantly, this team sucked while Dillon was around. Those are the worst years in franchise history. To get in ahead of players on teams that actually saw success (even went to the Super Bowl) would be insane. For example, I never saw Curtis play and his numbers are pedestrian by today's standards. To some extent the same applies to Riley. But they're both widely revered by OG fans and they played on some exceptional teams.

I don't care what kind of "stats" Dillon was putting up for the laughingstock of the NFL. There's no comparison. It makes me sick to think about those years. That legacy was so putrid it held them back for decades; some critics hold it against them to this day. You're a running back, man. You should know how to stay in your lane.

I'd love to hear what this diva has to say about Belichick. He's "comin' with the receipts"- yeah I bet. The only one he's making a fool of is himself.

I don't know. It's pretty impressive to put up big rushing numbers on a really bad team. He definitely didn't rack up those number while the Bengals were milking leads. He was about all we had, and you still couldn't stop him. I actually think he's sorta underrated. I get it though; he's abrasive.
