Nah. Dude wasn't a flashy or sexy back but he's #4 on the all-time rushing list behind Smith, Payton, and Sanders. If he had 4 more years in him, he could have owned #1 over Smith; who set that mark in 14 years.
He also averages 103 yards from scrimmage per game. Averages.... over a 10 year career. Name two other HOF backs who did that. Faulk? Nope. Dickerson? Nope. Thurman Thomas? Nope.
