I think I would go with the Bus ... narrow but still decisive win over Beast Mode.

Ahmad Bradshaw.  Jacobs got all the chatter about being a battering ram, but Bradshaw was a much better 'need one yard' back.
I'd rather be a disappointed optimist than a vindicated pessimist. 

Not slowing my roll

If we are limiting this to just Giants, I would agree.

Bradshaw over the above names though?

Pete Carroll should be in the Hall Of Shame for not handing off to Lynch. That being said since The Bus is being considered then we can go into NFL history. Jim Brown(of course), Walter Payton, and here's a name probably no one has thought about, Pete Johnson. Played mostly for Cincinnati in the 70's-80's. Was used at the goal line and scored a whole bunch of TD's. I used him in a neighborhood fantasy league back in 84'. My friends said Pete Who?, and he proceeded to score almost a TD/game. I won the season long pool basically wire to wire.

We know Peter Carroll won't give it to Lynch. 

For 1 yard, I am going Bettis.

Ottis Anderson, the man with more pelts on his horse than any of them. Ask Bill Parcells.

Peace!

Definitely Beastmode for me. 

For those saying Jerome Bettis, maybe you forgot this play??  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUcDGLHCOi4  The play that SHOULD have laid the path clear to another Peyton Manning Super Bowl ring.

How about the Fridge? Lol

I would say Bettis or Lynch. My choice Bettis.

I would call a good offensive line. I don't give a crap who has the ball when one yard is needed.

What I want is assurance that the ball-carrier not be contacted in the backfield. 

We have Saquon. If he's not hit in the backfield he just jumps over the pile and gets the yard 100% of the time.

If Jeff Hostetler could do it, Daniel Jones can do it !!!

Gary Brightwell, jk  /sarcasm/

Give me Marshawn in his prime
