Jim Brown is not only the best running back that ever played, but is right up there with Jerry Rice as one of the best football players of all time.

Can't say there's a lot of controversy there.

I remember seeing him in an interview like 20 years after he retired, saying to myself "I bet he can suit up now and still beat out a lot of the running backs in the league."

Sanders, Payton and, from what I read about him, Jim Brown. Then there is a line under those names. Everyone else, even the likes of Riggins, comes second to them.

Yeh. Thats pretty much right. Theyre the hyper elite of the elite hofers.
Although we should put the caveat that this is only for pro rbs where thee is game film/tape. Lots of huge names where we just dont know.
