Don't get me wrong, I have nothing but respect for Terry Allen and watching him run is pretty much the start of my Redskins memories. So while he played quite well for a guy with two reconstructed knees, his career was 10 years.
The QB position is different than RB, but if Griffin only had a 10 year career that would suck, all things considered.
(Unless that 10 years included a super bowl or two
)
