If he would have scored that would have went down as a top 10 run in team history. Not many backs across the league can make that kind of run.

Emmitt Smith is the best comparison I can think of.  Emmitt was not big and not fast, but he was just a great football player.  He avoided solid hits and made a lot of yards after contact.  Just like James Robinson. 

Same comp Vic Ketchmen just made

One thing though. Emmit had a great OL most of his career. JRob has been working with average to good never great most of his career thus far. I think if the OL can reach a more consistent level of great play (or stay healthy even) he could be even better.

Dude is contacted behind or at the LOS and makes plays anyway a lot.
