It's time for Bettis to go in.
His style wasn't sexy.
Agreed.
Every year that goes by his odds go down because people forget how dominant he was.
No HB ever initiated more contact, and won, than Bettis.
No HB was ever as effective at demoralizing a defense as Bettis in his prime. He'd be held down, 2.2 ypc, then he'd bust a hole he was supposed to be too bit or too slow to hit and run over 2 or 3 guys.
In the 90's Bettis WAS the fantasy HB. He'd get a guaranteed 80+ a TD. That was the rock you based a team on...
