Who Is the Hardest RB to take down?

Question

who's the hardest running back to take down... for example: MB3(Marion Barber 3), Brandon Jacobs, L.T., etc.

Answer 1

All time: Jim Brown (he was mostly a fullback though, I guess)

Currently: Stephen Jackson and Marshawn Lynch.  Check out how hard Marshawn runs; it's crazy.

Answer 2

Sweetness #34 - Walter Payton

Answer 3

Ladainian Tomlinson and Stephen Jackson, They will juke an opponent of their heels, and before you know it, TOUCHDOWN

Answer 4

Marion Barber my friend.

Answer 5

You know, I believe that Stephen Jackson is a hard RB to take down.  Have you seen that player before he was hurt?  He has done a tremendous job at faking out his opponents and he has the strength to keep gaining extra yards.  He has proven to be a quality back, and he should do well if he stays healthy this coming season.. Also one other RB that isn't playing currently is the bus, or better known as Jerome Bettis.  If he wasn't a RB that couldn't be stopped then I have no idea who was better.  Jerome Bettis was known for his bursts of speed down hill, but he was the best at punching it in the goal line.  That is where it counts.  He wasn't usually stopped at goal line situations.  Both backs are tremendous quick and they have the fortitude to continue even when subdued by defenders..  

Answer 6

Brian Westbrook #36 of the Philadelphia Eagles.

He is small in height so he is kinda hard to catch.

Also he is very fast and athletic, he can fight the defense off his back.

He is also the best Running back

Answer 7

Marion Barber

Answer 8

marion, jacobs, and westbrook

Answer 9

Frank Gore.... you simply can't take him down in the open field.  Plus, he's the best inside runner in the game today.  

Answer 10

Right now people won't agree with me..but it looks like Adrian Peterson...Of course they'll start giving me c**p like well he was stopped in the last 3 games of the season...well for one it took 9 defenders to do that and two if you had 7 Defenders up front...that still couldn't stop him..you had to have 8 for a chance and 9 to get him down

Answer 11

Just judging from last year I would have to say AP I do like Marion he is a beast will see how he does now that he will carry the load for DAL

Answer 12

i would have to say Fred Taylor and Maurice Jones- Drew those 2 are tough to handle even though Jones- Drew is little he is a beast and Fred Taylor  runs like a bull i aint even a Jaguars fan but i seen those 2 run over teams last year including mine The Steelers  

Answer 13

It's going to be Jonathan Stewart this year. Go Panthers!

Answer 14

EARL CAMPBELL hardest RB to take down of all time hands down you cant argue that

Answer 15

I think Laurence Maroney is the hardest to take down.

Answer 16

of all time, i would have to say Barry Sanders, or Mike Alstott....but if you are talking about today's players, I would have to go with someone like Warrick Dunn or Reggie Bush
