Me & a potna of mine were discussing this awhile back. He's a big Niner fan & I'm a big Corey Dillon fan. He said that Roger Craig was a better back then Dillon. I HIGHLY disagree. Craig was a better pass catcher but that was it. He played 4 some great teams & that helped him prosper. Dillon only played on a good team when he got 2 New England. When he was on the Bengals he was the only good player on the offense most of the time. Teams stacked the line with 7 or 8 players @ a time cuz they knew he was gonna get the ball 7/10 of the time & still could'nt stop him. If Craig was in that situation every week he would not have done what Dillon waz able 2 do.

I say dillon for the same reasons you do.

With no Montana and rice to open shit up he wouldn't have had as many yards

where as Dillon made his own yards because noone was scared of anyone else

Dillon was the better "running" back... Craig probably had better receiving skills coming out of the backfield though... plus he benefited from playing with Montana and Rice.
