Marcus Allen
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 25, No. 4 (2003) Marcus Allen Marcus Allen, the tenth player selected in the 1982 National Football League Draft, played 16 seasons with the Los Angeles Raiders and Kansas City Chiefs. During that time he gained 12,243 yards rushing, 5,411 yards receiving, and scored 145 touchdowns. Considered one of the game's best goal line and short-yardage runners, Marcus began his pro career as the NFL Rookie of the Year and ended as the game's all-time rushing touchdown leader. At the time of his retirement following the 1997 season, he held the single-season record for most rushing and receiving yards combined (2,314), second in consecutive 100-yard games, and was third in career-combined yardage. During his 11 seasons with the Raiders, the former University of Southern California standout, was named to the Pro Bowl five times. He added a sixth appearance in 1994, as a member of the Kansas City Chiefs. He was the Raiders leading ground gainer seven consecutive years and the Chiefs four consecutive times. He even led the Raiders in receptions with 51 in 1987. Allen's big-game performance in Super Bowl XVIII when the Raiders defeated the Washington Redskins 38-9 earned the then-second-year player game MVP honors. In that game he rushed for 191 yards and scored two touchdowns, one a Super Bowl record 74-yard gallop. Allen's finest season came in 1985, as he led the league with 1,759 rushing yards on 380 carries for a 4.6 yards per carry average and 11 touchdowns.

Nfc News 'N' Notes Double Trouble: Running Backs As
NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE 280 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10017 (212) 450-2000 * FAX (212) 681-7573 WWW.NFLMedia.com Joe Browne, Executive Vice President-Communications Greg Aiello, Vice President-Public Relations NFC NEWS ‘N’ NOTES FOR USE AS DESIRED FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION, NFC-N-11 10/31/06 CONTACT: RANDALL LIU (212/450-2382) DOUBLE TROUBLE: RUNNING BACKS AS RECEIVERS Much like a Swiss Army knife, running backs in the NFL are capable of doing a multitude of things. Whether it’s rushing the ball or catching a pass out of the backfield, more running backs are finding a way to make an impact. “Having a running back that can play every down makes it difficult to distinguish when a team is going to run the ball or pass the ball,” says St. Louis Rams running back MARSHALL FAULK, who is working as an analyst for NFL Network as he rehabs an injury. These versatile running backs are an offensive coordinator’s dream and a defensive coordinator’s nightmare. “Running backs are the hardest thing to account for in the passing game,” says Detroit Lions offensive coordinator MIKE MARTZ, who coached Faulk and STEVEN JACKSON (fifth in the NFL with 884 scrimmage yards) in St. Louis and currently designs plays for KEVIN JONES (third in the league among running backs with 37 receptions). “Once you get a back with speed matched up with linebackers and safeties, usually that’s a mismatch.” In San Francisco, where FRANK GORE is one of four NFL running backs to lead his team in rushing and hold at least a share of the club lead in receptions (Minnesota’s CHESTER TAYLOR, San Diego’s LA DAINIAN TOMLINSON, Philadelphia’s BRIAN WESTRBOOK), 49ers offensive coordinator NORV TURNER agrees.
