There are some very pedestrian RBs on the right side of this list. It's surprising that successful teams like the Dolphins, Eagles and Patriots have never managed to keep a good 1,500-yard back on the field for more than 4 seasons.

I tried typing in both "McCalister" and "McCallister" for the Saints, but alas... (Btw, can you allow those?)

Of all these guys, the one whose team rushing record goes back the furthest is the great Jim Brown. Lifetime average per carry: 5.2 yards. Not too shabby.

Was so confused why Eric Dickerson or Marshall Faulk weren't there...

Because they both played on different teams and don't hold their franchise marks for rushing. Faulk & Dickerson played a fair chunk for the Colts
