Also, aside from Lomas Brown, who were the great Lions offensive lineman in the 90's? Erik Andolsek? Mike Utley? Really? The Lions had good offensive lines during the Sanders years? Care to rephrase?
Barry Sanders was the best player in my lifetime in the NFL. Not even debatable.

Sanders was amazing.

As far as his line, a runner like that often makes his line look worse than it really is. Remember, they have to hold the block longer while he is figuring out where he is going to go.

Run blocking and Pass blocking are totally different. Often, teams that block run well, don't block pass well and vise versa.

I am not convinced that Sanders would have been any more dominant than Emmit Smith was behind that Cowboy offensive line. Emmit's style suited that offense perfectly.

Seriously? They would be better off signing me and giving me a chance to make the team.

Walker, however, clashed with Favre before he left the Packers in a trade after the 2005 season. Favre torched Walker for skipping the Green Bay Packers' 2005 minicamp. Walker was seeking a new contract at the time.
