Is Derrick Henry the best RB you ever seen?

Niccas going off feelings & prolly won't even turn on the tape to at least properly compare the two lol
I can guarantee you most never saw Sanders, Brown, Smith, OJ, and others actually play, and judging based on highlights and box scores
....which is why OP specifically said "you ever seen"

I've been watching since '99. I've always said that Faulk is the greatest I've seen. Henry is the first guy I've seen that challenges that thought, and I very much belive both Henry and Faulk are better than LT and AD, no doubt in my mind.

He was bit of a problem not a HUGE problem
I don't know if he's the best RB I've ever seen but when it's cold out NO ONE wants to tackle this guy. I've never seen anything like that before

Best I ever seen play was Barry Sanders. Him and Reggie White were my favorite players as a kid. No RB could make something out of nothing like Sanders. Too bad he played on some terrible teams
Might have to disagree there. I'm not saying he's Henry, but Beast Mode is responsible for some of the most ridiculous runs in NFL history and was as much of a will-breaker as anybody during the LOB Seahawks days.

Except Marshawn Lynch is an all time playoff performer...
2nd all time in 100 yard playoff games
3rd all time in Playoff TD's
130 yards per game

Never seen an NFL player embarrass defenders on the field like Barry did. Reminds me of playing Pop Warner and running against that one kid who’s just on another level athletically compared to everyone else. That’s exactly what Barry was.

Let's park this right here real quick.
After all of today's games, here are the rushing and rushing TD leaders for this season:
James Cook 309-1621-12
Johnathan Taylor 323-1585-18
King Henry (coming into tonight) 287-1469-16
Bijan Robinson 287-1478-7
Devon Achane 238-1350-8
Kyren Williams 249-1252-10
Jahmyr Gibbs 243-1223-13
Christian McCaffrey 311-1202-10
Javonte Williams 252-1201-11
Saquon Barkley 280-1140-7
As I type this at 930 eastern, Henry is at 11-89, which is 1558 for the season. He's currently 64 yards from passing Cook for the rushing crown this season.
If he wins his 3rd rushing title this year, he should get 1st Team All-Pro, when Taylor out the gates looked like he was gonna run away with it, and Cook led The League most of the second half of the season.
You are watching potentially the greatest running back ever, and definitely the greatest of this generation by 10 fukking miles.
None of these names on this list, not JT, not McCaffrey, not Saquon, none of these mf's are dominant year in and year out like The King.
fukking GOAT shyt!
