I don't think anybody running the ball, besides some running backs, like to get hit.

Kyler Murray

I don't really compare myself to a lot of other running backs - that's no offense to any other running back, but just the fact that I can see and avoid hits.

Le'Veon Bell

I think it's relatively easy to play defense against a team that can only do one thing. Unfortunately, that's not what we're talking about here with Seattle. They have a great running back - they have a great group of running backs - but Lynch obviously is really kind of in a class by himself. The quarterback's a problem, the receivers are a problem, they have a good offensive line.

Bill Belichick

You've got to be careful of guys trying to chop-block you. You know, running backs, the receivers. You've got to just hope that your knees are fine and you can avoid those chop blocks.

Mario Williams

I'm not a big power-and-strength guy, but I have a lot of balance, and I can take hits and stay on my feet. I control myself real good, shift my weight, and run real low. I do things that people haven't seen some of the running backs in the league do.

Marshall Faulk

I think everyone's a little afraid of being part of a trend, because you get compared to each other. Writers tend to have a lot of camaraderie, and when you're constantly compared to someone else, it kind of damages that camaraderie, but I think this is a great trend. I'm honored to be a part of it in many ways.

Veronica Roth

Some running backs do different things to get away. My move is to spin.

Le'Veon Bell

Me, personally, I'm going to be out there running full speed and chasing down running backs and chasing down quarterbacks. That's what I do best.

Jason Pierre-Paul

Some men of the line regiment who had appeared on our right started running back. I shouted out to them to halt, but they took no notice. I pulled out my revolver and very nearly shot at them, but I thought it wouldn't do any good, as they all had their backs to me so would have thought that anyone hit was hit by a German bullet. If I ran after them my men might think I was running away. So I took my men on!

William St Leger

If I'm compared to Babe Ruth or Willie Mays, that's great. But I'm just going to go out there and be myself.

Ken Griffey, Jr.

Every day I try to tell myself that this is going to be fun today. I try to put myself in a great frame of mind before I go out - then I screw it up with the first shot.

Johnny Miller

You try to become the character that you're working with. So for me, I try to block out the cameras and try to trick my mind that this is actually happening.

Bailee Madison

I hate running. Only if I have to, but my job is to get the ball to the receivers, the tight ends, running backs.

Lamar Jackson

I just block out the demons. I sing. I block them away. I put my pain into my music. I paint. I make my own videos. I direct myself. No one directs me anymore. I am in charge of my destiny.

Dolores O'Riordan

I've always liked Jordan Howard and what he's done in his young career. He's one of the top running backs, when you look at some of the production numbers.
