Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (The latest on Micah Hudson isn't great...)

I don't know that you know enough about the issues that exist to have a fully rounded take.
That being said, it's certainly possible that you could be correct.
The fact that the official visit is being counted on is ironically one of the issues that created this issue that has sprung up.
The original column was fine.
The inanity of the ensuing thread will likely result in me staying off of this board for the next few days.

I have not heard he has any issues with Chris jackson. He might not know him as well as some others recruiting him, but Jackson is not truly at the center of what I've heard popped up.
Because Brady was a much bigger contributor to the outcome of his teams than smith was to the cowboys / by a large margin even
I hear your points I just don’t think they’re valid in making smith the all time best rb
You don’t listen to or even respond to the points of the posts you don’t want to hear
On a scale of 1-10, how good of a blocker do you believe sanders was?
Emmitt was a 9.5
LeBron has more rings than almost every all-time great in basketball from the modern era.
I don't really listen to the argument that he's No.1 all-time.
I would say the fact that he's been the Finals 10 times is a feather in his cap, not something to beat him up over.
This recruitment is far from over. Seems like Texas having a good season might make a huge difference. I also wouldn't count out this staff, they are relentless
I’ll put it this way
I think Terrell Davis was JAG rb behind a great Denver offensive line and scheme
Look at the success that other rbs had behind that line before he got there - yet you just gave your opinion that he was a borderline top 10 rb
I doubt he is a top 50 rb ever
Do I think the cowboys win multiple Super Bowls with another top 25 rb besides smith in backfield? Absolutely

This is quite frankly the worst “Longhorns”discussion in the past 20 years.
Was that the only game against big-time competition that he played against?
I was unaware that KSU defined his career, especially when you consider his performance AT Nebraska later in the year, against the Wrecking Crew later that year and even in the Cotton Bowl to complete his career.
Let alone his performances against the likes of A&M in 1995 on the road.
Their fans in the stands were besides themselves over getting run out of the park.
Emmitt would have likely never won a ring with Detroit, but he sure as hell would have balled out in the playoffs.
He was built for the moment.
I watched that video this week. I can';t believe the composure he showed when you consider his reputation for often not having it.
Yes -
How about Bijan Robinson - was he a winner?
Start a thread claiming Bijan isn’t a winner in the title and see where it gets you.
Rankings list are just a data point. It's hardly the only thing I use.
I agree that most people don't rank Emmitt as No.1.
I don't agree and have listed my reasons.
Let me repeat in case you skimmed...
"t's not that he's the NFL's all-time leading rusher. Or that he has scored more touchdowns than any running back that ever played in the NFL. It's that he was directly responsible for being the engine of a dynasty. Take a look at this list and you'll see that Smith has more Super Bowl rings than the entire list added together. When the stakes were the highest, Smith was at his best and it never mattered if he had a separated shoulder in the biggest game of the season ... he delivered."
Did that read like I had just one data point?
Larry Allen had a very minimal role in Dallas' dynasty.
He wasn't even on the team for two of the three Super Bowls.
Maybe sit this one out and come back next week.
No I’m sorry I didn’t mean at all that you didn’t have a valid data point or make any compelling points
You made the post that nobody had presented any data points in response at all - and that simply isn’t true
His teammates don't agree.
Go back and revisit the 1993 season and get back to me.
Oh sorry didn’t realize that him being first team all pro on the offensive line six times while smith was running behind him didn’t help smiths stats or help him become the all time yards leader that you cited in your initial post
I must be mistaken
I literally have listed a lot of reasons for my choice of Smith.
The focus has been on the side by side comparison to Sanders.
Read the total case made and apply it to all of them.
I'm afraid you haven't realized a lot of things in this discussion tonight,
Allen was an all-time player, but his best seasons don't really cross over with Smith prime of prime years.
I like your questions each week. You're fine. I don't think you need to alter anything.
1993 on the road in the final game of the season... absolute do or die.
With a separated shoulder... he carried the team.
Name another running back in NFL history who has ever done given such a performance.
It's what separates the mere all-time greats from the greatest of the all-time greats.

I never asserted that those two things intersected
But at least I’m reading your posts and trying to internalize the points you’re making - I’ve got that going for me
I think he might Portal after 1-2 seasons.
My argument that he played in the pre-modern era of pro football?
I have him ranked No.2 all-time and literally write that I understand those that have him No.1.
🤷♂️
Easy answer - super bowl 32
Terrell Davis - 157 rushing yards and three touchdowns with a migraine that was bad enough that he couldn’t stay on the field the entire game
Campbell's three-year peak is as good as any back that ever lived. You can make the case because of that that he deserves the top spot., It's an argument that is understandable.
Yet, he rushed for 15 yards in the 1979 AFC title game.
