AP1 Posted July 9 Report Share Posted July 9 I stumbled onto a post of mental retardation the other day on Instagram. I don't remember what account. The account posted a collage of Earl Campbell, Eddie George, Chris Henry and Derrick Henry and said that the Houston Oilers/Tennessee Titans have the best Mt Rushmore of Running Backs in NFL History. I say pish posh. My question is two parts: 1) Who are the second, third and fourth spots on your Browns list? Mine is the following: A. Jim Brown B. Leroy Kelley C. Marion Motley D. Nick Chubb 2) (I'm going off the top of my head) Three Hall of Famers alone make the Browns Mt Rushmore the best of all time. Can a better Mt Rushmore of RBs for a team be named? I can think of the Bears (Sayers and Payton), Rams (Dickerson and Faulk), Stillers (Harris and Bettis), and Cowboys (Dorsett and Smith) having two HOFers on their respective lists. Am I missing a third HOFer from any of these teams lists? Any other teams with three or four HOF RBs? 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Posted July 9 Report Share Posted July 9 Current Browns rushing leaders are: Jim Brown, Leroy Kelly, Mike Pruitt, Nick Chubb. (Motley is 7th) With an 800 yard season Chubb can jump to 2nd all time. ...Mike Pruitt was a good running back. A powerful runner. I enjoyed watching him....and his backfield mate Greg (who was 5th all time). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AP1 Posted July 9 Author Report Share Posted July 9 I know leaving Mike Pruitt off my list would be unpopular. In terms of the team with the best stable of four RBs of all-time, it's hard to argue against three HOFers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flugel Posted July 9 Report Share Posted July 9 11 hours ago, AP1 said: Ahhh. Solid addition. Thanks @Dutch Oven. I just watched something on him the other day. I have no excuses. Browns v Bears Here's a cut and paste from Google: Historic Moments: Sayers, Butkus draft Nov. 28, 1964. The selection of Gale Sayers and Dick Butkus in the first round of the 1965 draft remains the only time a team has selected two Hall of Fame players in the first round of one draft. My thoughts on that: 1) I don't know if that still stands; 2) Surprisingly, the Bears never once made the playoffs during their NFL careers. In 1978, the Browns drafted both Ozzie Newsome and Clay Matthews in the 1st round of the NFL draft. Shortly after this, my golden era as a fan was the 1980s when the Browns frequented the playoffs more than any other decade I can recall. Both guys were quiet and steady leaders by example on their sides of the ball much like that of Nick Chubb since he arrived. There were 2 different groups of Kardiac Kids starting with Sipe and finishing with Kosar. Nobody even cared that we refused to spell Kardiac correctly. After Leroy Kelly, my favorite player to watch was Greg Pruitt (my avatar). He had some brutal knee injuries that he bounced back from each time. However, back in the 70s it took a little longer to get back to feeling close to pre-injury form following major knee surgeries/reconstructions. That said, he was incredibly strong for his size to the extent he ran through so many tear away jerseys - he became one of the biggest reasons the NFL had to do away with the tear away jerseys. The TRADITION of the RB position in Cleveland reeled me in as a kid. Needless to say -this was a GREAT idea to have as a thread! We've had a lot of fun backs to watch after Greg Pruitt like the already mentioned Mike Pruitt; and later on Kevin Mack; Earnest Byner; Leroy Hoard; Jamal Lewis; Nick Chubb. We even had Mr 3rd Down - Calvin Hill during his 30s with the Kardiac Kids. There's even more guys that I didn't mention like Bo Scott, Cleo Miller, Charles White, Reuben Droughns, Eric Metcalf (shoulda been a slot Receiver here) and prolly several others I'm still leaving out... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never thought that Mike Pruitt got the credit that he deserved. He wasn't flashy. But in my opinion, he picked up the torch that Leroy Kelly had left behind 3 years prior....and 'ran' with it. True but Mike Pruitt wasn't immediately terrific. As a rookie in 76, he rushed for 2.7 yards per carry with 138 yards rushing. In 77, he rushed for 206 yards at 4.4 yards per carry. In 78 he had 560 yards at 4.1 ypc. In 79 thru 81 he exceeded 1000 yards rushing every time and had a 4.9 ypc in 79 when he ran for 1294 yards and 9 rushing TDs. Greg Pruitt rushed for over 1000 yards in 75, 76 and 77 while averaging 4.9 ypc, 4.8 ypc, and 4.y ypc respectively. Actually, 1 of those years he rushed for exactly 1000 yards in 1976. There was more to both Pruitts' careers than those seasons I mentioned. Either way, the Browns liked to do it with Pruitt. Those were fun times with each guy. It was fun to see them together. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing that becomes similar in the AFC.. Most notably Pitts/Cle is the commitment to run the ball.. over the decades.. Defense.. Run the ball.. Seems to be the recipe that works here.. While I get having the franchise QB is a necessity (in most cases)... It's not the only road to Mecca.... Even some of the lesser backs have given some thrills.. LeRoy Hoard. Peyton Hillis and William Green had some fleeting moments of fun.. Terrell Suggs was an interesting back until injuries took a toll on him.. And then there's Eric Metcalf.. So the Browns have a nice history at RB.. Doesn't take a back seat to anybody... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Calvin Hill came in to join them a few years later (Dino Hall & Charles White came along). Teams carried a lot of RB's back then. He was in there for a lot of 3rd and 1 or 2 plays I'm sure (he was the fullback after-all). Greg Pruitt and Cleo Miller sucked up most of the carries until Mike finally took over as the feature back. And he was a reliable receiver out of the backfield. Greg Pruitt was 'the man' when Mike Pruitt came along. And deservedly so. Greg was terrific and going strong. Who knew at that point that Mike would surpass Greg on the all time list? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knew at that point that Mike would surpass Greg on the all time list? Well said! Greg had to wait for Leroy Kelly a year or 2; but while doing so he was the AFC All Pro Kick Returner while Terry Metcalf (Eric's dad) was the NFC All Pro Kick Returner in 1974. I always wondered what he would have done if he stayed healthy. In his last couple years with the Browns he caught a lot of passes while Mike Pruitt was a beast on the ground.

Tough as that was to do - both guys made our fans happy we had these 2 guys following keeping the strong tradition going with our RBs. Always fun to watch #34 teaming up with #43.

What I loved about both Pruitts was the running game dimension that they could score from anywhere on the field. At the same time both guys were very strong within their frames to frequently break tackles as well. Before Chubb came here and restored that threat - we had to hope our Oline could get Eric Metcalf similar daylight he found in the open fields the return game supplied him with. Unfortunately, Metcalf up the middle didn't do it nearly as much as the passing game could provide that for him. The next 3-4 teams that had Metcalf put him in the slot and said "have fun Eric." He did! We've had other backs that could break long runs but these 2 did it a lot with in the spans you'll see below/ This is a string of seasons from 1973 to 1980 showing the longest runs from scrimmage from Greg Pruitt and Mike Pruitt. You can see their longest runs from other seasons on the rushing stats that were posted in this thread; but these are their best.
