I loved his no frills way of running the ball, he was much like Bettis.
He'd just mow over whatever was in the way...
Unforunately he didn't stay in just one place...
I think he was drafted by Indy, then went to Chicago, then New Orleans and ended his career in Atlanta...

yeah I like him a lot (weird cause I'm a Packers fan)

because he wasn't the kind of tail back that would dance he would plow his way through and make a hole to og through

Being a Steeler fan and liking bruisers (and being in The South) I was always a fan of Ironhead. He was fun to watch. I believe he was with the Saints in 1991 when they won their first division title.
