Tomlinson is just a sick running back. He is incredible. Especially for the fact that early in his career Tomlinson had a terrible offensive line and was still able to produce big numbers. Grange is a great player but when he got hurt his ability as a big time runner never returned. He is more known for his college career Imo.

You must be new here gator, hope you stick around.

One must also consider the time frame and style of play. 90% of plays back then were rushing and the defense knew it.
Red still has LT beat when looking at yds/TD.
