I doubt he plays that long. There have already been talks of him retiring after last season and now this season.If he stays on pace he's a HOF shoe-in.. even with those 2 wasted years in Buffalo (I don't think he reached his prime until he got to Seattle and he is currently in his prime), his first 2 seasons in Buffalo he had 1,000+ yds.. but his numbers in Seattle and, after, February 1st having his second SB ring, with possible more to come. By the time he retires (around 2020 or so) he'll have between 12 and 15k rushing yards with over 100 TDs, possibly 150. Definite HOF numbers, there is no doubt in my mind. A career ending injury (knock on wood) would be the only thing to stop him.
I guess you could say now is his prime, but his play has really been very consistent during his career. Those Buffalo teams were just bad and he was in the dog house, but he was still the same player he is today.
