I think now that Boselli is finally properly being celebrated, the talking heads/stat geeks can start to focus on Freddy T and all the GOOD things he did. Number 17 all time on the career rushing list (everyone above him except Frank Gore and Adrian Peterson are in the Hall of Fame). Tied for 4th all time in YPC (4.6 YPC). Fourth all time for runs of 50+ yards (13).

Then, much like Boselli: when you're PEERS who are some one the greatest to ever play chime in: 

Ray Lewis:  "What Fred can do with a football in his hand, it's special."
Troy Polamalu: "Fred Taylor is probably the best back ive seen in the NFL."
Jim Brown: "Fred was one of the greatest running backs ive seen in a long time."
Fred is one of those [players] you don’t really look forward to playing, because he’s a total back to me . . . Barring injury, he's one of the greatest talents we’ve ever seen touch a football. You kind of put him in that same category -- I don’t want to go too far -- but like a Bo Jackson, going through the injury, playing year-in and year-out. But what Fred can do with a football in his hand, it’s special.
