He did dance around too much and at times it may of cost his team games but there was a sweet science to what Barry Sanders did on the field. He wasnt afraid to take a 5 yard loss to break a 80 yard TD. The dancing around was what made Barry Sanders such a insane player. I use to think the same things about the way he danced behind the LOS but there was a reason behind his madness. Top defenses could shut him down at times but the thing that made Barry Sanders special was how he could be shutdown all game but then one defender makes a mistake and Sanders takes it to the house 80 yards. As a defense you had to play mistake free football for 60 minutes and because of that Sanders made those Lions teams alot better then they really were.
