We can hear the anger from some of you now. Eric Dickerson, the Hall of Fame Running Back was not exactly the model player in terms of behavior as suspensions, attitude and decline certainly made him less of a player than he was with the Los Angeles Rams. Still, this is a player who won the Rushing Title as a Colt and still had two First Team All-Pro Selections with Indianapolis. That is enough to earn him a spot here.
Dickerson entered the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1999 and the Colts responded by enshrining the star into their Ring of Honor in 2013.
41. Eric Dickerson
