For similar reasons, I have Walter Payton ahead of Barry Sanders on my all-time RB list, both behind Jim Brown.

If you talk about "similar reasons", then why did the Fridge get the rock on the goalline in the Super Bowl instead of Payton? It certainly wasn't because Patyon wasn't a great back, and I think the same goes for Reggie Bush and Carroll's failure to include him on that important play.
There's something to be said for otherwise great coaches having occasional brain farts.
