Why isn't Eric Dickerson on this list?

1990: 667 rush yards, 4 rush TDs, 92 rec yards, 0 rec TDs
1991: 536 rush yards, 2 rush TDs, 269 rec yards, 1 rec TD
1992: 729 rush yards, 2 rush TDs, 85 rec yards, 1 rec TD
1993: 91 rush yards, 0 rush TDs, 58 rec yards, 0 rec TD

Yeah, he dominated the 1990s

Marcus Allen was good. He played until the late 90s and was consistently in the 600s-800s yards and 100s-300s receiving yards. But he stood out mid-80s. Frank Gore has reminded me of him. However, Gore was never a star RB.

Too generic, several of those RBs were good at different skills. The poll list is confusing.

Is Marshall Faulk bitter about his place in NFL History? I didn't know that.

Most of his career he was sharing a backfield with 1 or 2 other great running backs Bo Jackson, Eric Dickerson, Roger Craig. Plus he had a long feud with Al Davis that cost him a good chunk of touches. When he was on the field though he was always the best player out there.

edit also 7000+ yards and 68 TDs in the 90s all at age 30+

When I said he was good, I meant in the 1990s. He was never a star RB in the 90s but wasn't bad RB either. He was a star mostly in the 80s.

Sanders hands down. He ran for more yards than any of the others if you count the sideways and backward yard.
