Lots of good ones went before: Jim Brown, Larry Czonka, OJ, Tony Dorsett, Marcus Allen, Walter Payton, John Riggins, Eric Dickerson, Barry Sanders, Emmitt Smith, Marshall Faulk, Adrian Peterson, Ladanian Tomlinson, Christian Okoye just to name some. I'm sure I'm leaving plenty more out. And since his era is slanted by favoring QB's and passing offense, what he is doing is even more amazing. Imagine him in a '3 yrds and a cloud of dust' era like the 70's; he would be tearing it up. This is the guy I associate Henry to as his closest comparison, only Henry is much faster. Campbell was one of the most powerful runners I had ever seen. He constantly kept his legs moving forward and carried defenders with him. I swear, Henry just looks faster and faster each season.
