Man this is going to be difficult. To name only ten of all the great backs I've witnessed play is going to due someone injustice, but here go:

Marcus Allen
Jim Brown
Earl Campbell
Erick Dickerson
Tony Dorsett
Leroy Kelly
Walter Peyton
Barry Sanders
OJ Simpson
Emmitt Smith

I would be hard pressed not to mention Franco Harris, Lenny Moore, Paul Hornung, and Gale Sayers though he had a relatively short career. Top twenty would have been better since there has been so many excellent RB's in the history of the NFL. I don't want to neglect our own John Riggins.
