Barber has a career average of 4.66 yards per carry on 1,908 carries, behind only three running backs on terms of yards per carry among players who have at least 1,900 carries. RBs Jim Brown, with a 5.22 average, Barry Sanders, with a 4.99 average, and O.J. Simpson, with a 4.67 average, are the only three ahead of Barber.
