No, **** the Cowboys.
I just respect the great Emmitt Smith, because I watched that team every Sunday during their heyday. That's also why I have a hardon for Jimmy Johnson.

A lot of RBs (Dickerson, Sanders, Payton, Allen, Brown, Faulk).
Doesn't mean he wasn't great. Emmitt Smith and Thurman Thomas were basically clones and bother were ****ing greatness regardless of the teams they played on.

Curtis Martin is a good comparison to him. But may have had more talent.

But there is something to be said for that.....im guessing the average career of a RB is about 3 seasons.

Actually makes one wonder what Curtis Martin (or many others) could've done behind that O-line.

I still hate Thurman Thomas from those playoff games in the 90s.

Emmitt was much better than Barry Sanders and O.J. Simpson.
He won Super Bowls. Did they? Trent Dilfer and Doug Williams are much better QBs than Dan Marino and Dan Fouts. Did Marino and Fouts win Super Bowls? Also, EMMITT Smith is and idiot!!! |

To quote my dad: "Jimmy Johnson didn't do anything special. That team was so loaded with talent I could have coached them. I would have just said 'Welp, go get em.' then sat in a beach chair on the sideline and drank beer."
