He was good, but not great.
Yes, Alstott was that good!!! As Warren Sapp said, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers offense at the time consisted of Mike Alstott and the kickers. Alstott up the Gut...That was all they had. He constantly ran against a stacked box that was constantly playing the run. If they had had even a fair receiving corps to take some of the heat off him his numbers would be vastly greater. 6 trips to the Pro Bowl and named #10 NFL Networks "All Time Power Backs"
