IMHO Sayers was the best running back/returner ever, albeit a shortened career. Led the league in rushing twice, including the year after the Alexander knee injury which was a torn MCL and ACL. He still holds several records, including averaging almost 31 yards per kick return for his career.
Payton was an incredible back, but compared to Sayers watching Walter was like seeing a Clydesdale versus a thoroughbred. Nothing against Payton, but Sayers was a different breed altogether. Sanders was the closest I've seen since.
Sayers was much more than his highlights suggest...and we've all seen the highlights.
He's why I'm a Bear's fan.
