But I still give a slight edge to Ickey and Brooks.  They were more dominate on a more dominate offense.  Bengals had the #1 rushing attack in the league with them and they combined for almost twice as many tds (29) as Boobie and Essex (15).

I agree I actually put Ickey and Brooks #1 but I do think that Boobie and Essex don;t get enough credit for what they did especially the combined yards in that era... thanks for bringing back some teen memories for me..
