  1. In 1985, just a year after setting the
  2. NFLΓÇÖs single-season rushing mark,
  3. Eric was left off the Pro Bowl team.
  4. Despite rushing for 1,234 yards and
  5. 12 touchdowns in only 14 games, he
  6. didnΓÇÖt earn enough votes to be
  7. selected. To show people that he was
  8. an all-star, Eric put on a record
  9. performance in a playoff game against
  10. the Dallas Cowboys. He rushed for
  11. 248 yards, including touchdown runs
  12. of 40 and 55 yards! Eric proved his
  13. point. He was voted to the Pro Bowl in
  14. each of the next four years!
