Name these 3. Jim Brown....ran between 220 and 249 4 times in his career (high was 237...twice) (but never 250 or more) OJ Simpson.....3 times...including the two above Jamaal Charles....3 times. and thats it. If you give a name...specify which category you are putting the player in. And the greatest #32 played in the 11 to stop 1 era which greatly helped Gary Collins' numbers because often if he popped open there was nobody else there to tackle him. Gary Collins obscure trivia, in 1966 Gulf Gas stations had a contest with NFL players game pieces for money with the top prize a 1966 Ford mustang. The rare to get piece was Gary Collins, a guy my dad worked with had the piece but lost it, they tore the house apart looking for it but alas no Gary so no new 1966 Ford mustang. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
