The 25 Best NFL Running Back Seasons in the Last 25 Years

2. Marshall Faulk, St. Louis Rams (1999)

If you thought he was done, you were wrong. You must have forgotten about the Rams' Super Bowl season, when Faulk tallied a career-high 2,429 total yards and 12 touchdowns.

His sixth season was not as well-recognized as others, having won Offensive Player of the Year rather than MVP. However, he averaged 5.46 yards per carry -- the highest of his career -- and hoisted the Lombardi when all was said and done. In doing so, Faulk became one of only two rushers to post an AV of 25 or better.
