If you only started watching the NFL in the 21st century, you really missed out. And that's mainly because you weren't able to witness one of the most entertaining running backs in league history: Barry Sanders. Sure, you can watch as many highlight videos as you want, but nothing compared to seeing him in real time. At 5'6" and 200 pounds, Sanders was undersized for the position. However, for what he lacked in size, the product of Oklahoma State University surely made up for in ridiculous quickness and footwork, breaking free from two, three and sometimes even four defenders as they swarmed around him with one juke move after another.
Today, Barry celebrates his birthday and to commemorate the occasion, we have rounded up the best moments where defenders went from thinking they had to their man all wrapped up to ending up with shattered dreams and broken ankles. 46, to be exact. One for each year the Lions running back has been alive. Here are The 46 Greatest Juke Moves in NFL History in GIFs.
