Now, Bo didn't have the career of Sanders, Smith, Brown, etc. but I think it's undeniable that he was a generational runner back, even with his limited body of work.
But, I don't think Watters or Martin belong in the conversation about generational running backs, and I don't care what stats they accumulated. Because if those two were on that level, then Frank Gore would be too, and while he is a freak of nature still playing RB after all these years, he is just not on those others player's level.
But, it's just an opinion.

Okay, yeah I agree that Curtis and Watters aren't on the same level as the others, but they were among the best backs of their generation surely. So while I'll give you that they might not be "generational" in the strictest sense of the word, they definitely were among the best backs during their time. Which is what I was trying to get at with that list. Any one of those guys would be a welcome addition on just about any team right now (assuming they were in their prime years of course), whether you care to label them with the "generational" tag or not.
