Payton missed one game during his rookie year, and then didn't miss a game for the next 11 years. In those 11 years, he was over 1200 yards rushing 10 times (the only year he wasn't was the strike year when teams played only 9 games). He averaged at least 100 yards from scrimmage per game every one of those 11 years.

11 years and about 4,000 touches without missing a single game while playing at one of the highest levels ever seen.

Shame he never got a TD in the Super Bowl and Perry did.

That was typical Ditka giving the Fridge a TD instead of Payton.  He always seemed to look for ways to rub it in the opponents nose instead of being classiy and give Walter the ball after all those years he waited to get that far.

I am on the outside on this one.  Yes Walter was a class act and always played the game right.  BUT, he was a Chicago Bear and that right there is automatic dislike on my part.
