Couple of old pics of them.

Speed and power are important but vision can make someone with above average skills look dominant...that was Emmitt's big advantage. His o-line was merely average and when any other running back ran, they too looked average. There is a reason Aikman had so many concussions...the o-line was ok..not as dominant (save for Larry Allen and a young Erik Williams before the car accident) as people think.


This is why I always rate Chicago's Walter Payton and Dallas' Emmitt Smith as the two ABSOLUTE best runners..without peer. Obviously Emmitt played on better teams and Walter was more naturally gifted but they both could run, catch AND pass block. Even the great Jim Brown, when they've shown his old highlights, hated to pass block and wasn't particularly good at it. Barry Sanders was the same way plus he was not adept at scoring near the goal line.

If a running back can not serve as an adequate pass catcher...but more important..consistently pick up a blitzing linebacker or safety...it is hard to be considered the "best."

Dallas had the BEST Oline in the NFL during the 90s!!! Are you on crack??

Two thirds of the starting RBs in the league could have rushed for 1400 yds behind that Oline.

Nate Hewton, Larry Allen, Mark Tuinei, Erik Williams, and Ray Donaldson were all Pro Bowlers.

Aikman had so many concussions because the league didn't have any rules against defensive players hitting QBs in the head.

Same deal with Steve Young who retired in part because of concussions.

Larry Allen was a Pro-Bowler from day one.

Nate Newton, Mark Tuinei, Mark Stepnoski, Kevin Gogan, and John Gesek were considered so-so players with Nate being a borderline bust prior to Emmitt's arrival. They have all said countless times that Emmitt ran into holes that weren't even there. On his big runs, he had huge lanes but most of the time, he created magic on those 3, 4 and 5 yard runs. They accomplished a lot as a group but they weren't seen as great until Emmitt arrived. Unsung heroes but not Hall of Famers...except for Larry Allen.
 
Man, I don't want to hijack this thread more than it has been, but Newton was not ever considered a bust based on raw talent; the debate was whether he could get his fat ass in shape to play a full 16 games in the pros.

No one said they were all HOFers, but the Oline Emmitt ran behind in the 90s was the best in the NFL. There's really no argument to be made here.


And, does anyone else think that Reggie Bush played Kim for the media attention?

I KNEW he wasn't gonna marry that girl in the short-term.

Only person dude loves is HIMSELF.

Read the book "Boys Will Be Boys" by Jeff Pearlman where he interviews all of those 90's Cowboys...they make reference to this on several occasions in interviews and quotes from the linemen.

As for dominance...I agree with the results on the field...they were dominant. I'm not talking so much about what they were...but instead of the perception of what they were prior to Emmitt winning his first rushing crown (1,563 yards) in 1991.
