I find it odd that you excluded touchdowns and rushing yards, but included return yards - something that Henry has never done.
Probably because total rushing yards are a largely irrelevant stat given that some backs play more games than others. Henry has played in 13 games and has almost 70 more carries than LF7 does.. and is only 245 total yards ahead of him. If LF7 had Henrys touches he would be hovering around 2,150 yards in 13 games
LF7 rushes for more yards per game than Henry (157 > 152). He has a higher ypc (6.42 vs Henrys pedestrian 5.86). The only reason Henry has more rushing yards is because He's played in 2 additional games. Not to mention he avoided the best front 7 in CFB. LF7, Elliot, and Cook are all better RBs than Henry.. what they don't have is the Crimson A hype train pushing them forward.
That being said.. Henry will probably win it. He had a hell of a season. But for a heisman RB.. he's going to take over Ingrams spot as the weakest RB to ever win the award.

I think total rushing yards is more relevant than a stat in which one of the guys didn't even participate. If he wanted to list the return yards for McCaffrey, that's cool - but don't do that under the guise of trying to make comparisons while not including 2 major stats the two guys both participated in
