Talk:Emmitt Smith

message: Doen't Jerry Rice have the post season record for TD's?  
c'mon, emmitt is one of the greatest football players( true 'dat') who played for some of the greatest dallas teams of all-time. take out all that crap about his post-playing days, and this article is basically a stub. i honestly don't know enough encyclopedic information about smith, but there must be somebody out there who knows and is willing to put in the work in order to give one of the greatest players a page worthy of his accomplishments.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.119.143.219 (talk) 03:57, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

message: With a little push in the NFL section and a cleanup in the retirement section, this could be rated as a ood article, imo. The NFL is not my thing, so anybody want to give it a shot? Zeng8r (talk) 16:19, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

message: I was pretty concerned by that comment (being both subject and unsourced), and I have put a <<fact>> tag on it for now, as it really needs sources.  For the heck of it I ran a Google search on 'greatest running back in NFL history' and just looking at the top 5 hits, they rank Smith as 4th, 10th, 2nd, 4th and 10th.  Which is quite a long way away from people widely considering him to be a consensus #1.  Very happy to leave it there for now, but unless that statement can get backed up with some pretty solid sources, it probably has to go. --Legis (talk - contribs) 13:47, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks, sounds very sensible.  I don't think anyone could seriously disagree that he is 'one of the greatest', but we can always plug some of the above links in as sources if necessary. --Legis (talk - contribs) 09:39, 29 October 2014 (UTC)
