Not that I'm a big fan of Davis or anything... it's just interesting that Sayers is often mentioned as one of the greatest and Davis' numbers are comparable. If longevity is indeed an issue, not sure why it affects Davis but not Sayers.
Gale Sayers is not in the all-time top 50 in any major category.
