Gore was one of those guys (along with a few of his OLs) that wore down defenses and took advantage of their waning stamina later in games. I have a hunch he would rank high on that list if it existed. (high YPC numbers in 3rd and 4th q)

I don't say that to diminish his abilities. Always liked the guy and how he played. Hell of a long career.

Derrick Henry is probably the best at that along with Bettis

Bettis is likely high on that list.

Henry? Nah.

Not enough games under his belt employing that strategy.
While the tacks have done this with him at times, it hasn't been their go-to gameplan and he hasn't been around that long in comparison.
4 seasons with 200+ touches compared to Gore's 13 seasons with 200+.
