Marshall Faulk's Top 5 RB's...No Portis?!

On NFL Total Access last night they, I mean Marshall Faulk presented his top five running backs I the league and the lists was as follows:

1. Adrian Peterson
2. DeAngelo Williams
3. Michael Turner
4. LaDanian Tomlinson
5. Maurice Jones-Drew/Brian Westbrook (tied for 5th)

I can hardly disagree with Adrian Peterson but, seriously, no Portis anywhere on the list?! That is just plain ridiculous. Allow me to 'critique' Faulk's list and then present my own. I agree with Adrian Peterson. DeAngelo Williams isn't even the best RB on his own team, Michael Turner has been a number 2 most of his career until last season in which he did have an outstanding year, but to say he is now among the elite is a bit premature. LaDanian Tomlinson, IMO, should always be in this discussion despite his nagging injuries of late. Maurice Jones-Drew and Westbrook are close although I think defensive coordinators fear scheming against Westbrook far more than Jones-Drew. What would be your guys list of the Top 5 RB's in the NFL?....This is my attempt to break the monotony of all of the Campbell sucks, Vinny sucks, Zorn sucks, and Snyder sucks threads LMAO.
