You also can't really rank running back purely by their numbers. Sure, Bell, 2 years ago, had great numbers because he ran behind a beastly offensive line. If he were in Cincinnati 2 years ago, his numbers are nowhere near where he was. You also have to look at the system, does the team run to set up the pass, or vice versa? Was the back the teams bell weather, or did he have to split carries with a fumblefingers..... Lots of factors other than pure yardage when ranking backs.
