I don't think football was invented yet when I was a kid.
I'm just happy to be here! Today I'm as young as I'll ever be and and older than I've ever been before!

I'm going to say Marcus Allen because he was not only fast but had good taste. He left the Raiders and played for the Chiefs.
A bit off topic, but watching Mike Singletary made me wonder how fast he was. Either he was mega fast or he read plays well because nobody got past him very often.

X2. He was the fastest ever. He won two Gold medals in track in the 1964 Olympics breaking then World records in both events.

Bo Jackson not only the fastest, but the best human athlete ever to play sports. Period. Your a lot younger than I thought you were...Bo Jackson played 1987 -1990

I think I could have outrun any of them when I was a kid and disturbed a yellowjacket nest one time.

Who was the fastest NFL player when you were a kid watching football ?
For me ...it was Bob Hayes
Now I wonder who the Beav will have ?
I agree with you, Nessie, but there was a feller named "neon" Dion that was pretty fast, too.
