140 yards and no TDs is not up to his standards, and that's a fact.
Its not, but that is a very good rushing defense and he had 6 YPC at 140 yards. That is damn solid for 99% of running backs.
We had like 13 plays on offense in the 1st half.

This is the thing though. He and Chubb are in that 1%, so don't get made when people point out that his performance was not great.
Like WG just said, it's a testament to him that 140 yards can be considered struggling.

We are all grateful indeed.
Funny how things have a way of working out.

Let's be honest, Wiscy is a middle of the road defense against an SEC schedule. Alabama destroyed them last season with Henry averaging like 12 YPC.

To expect more is just not logical really

Chubb is better, but it's an unfair comparison. Chubb has at least one knee that's been completely rebuilt, while LF7 has to struggle along with the same old knees he's always had.

Why do you keep ignoring touchdowns? 140 yards with a scores becomes a good day.
140 yards without one is nothing to go crazy about.

But I guess you can help me make my point.

can we please stop referencing last year's stats? I mean last year UGA had the #1 pass defense in America but I don't see anyone pumping that up this year.

Why do you keep ignoring touchdowns?
I have always said tds are a horrible way to judge receivers and running backs.
It values a 1 yd td reception more than a 45 yard reception that put you on the 1

Last week the only reason Wiscy had a great Defense last season was now standing on LSUs sideline. FF to today, Wiscy is now full of 4 and 5 stars.

My unbiased opinion on Chubb vs L7
L7 ------------------- is Faster
L7 ------------------ is a better receiver
L7------------------- plays on a shitty offense
L7------------------- is a better blocker
L7------------------- not as likely to get hurt
All that said, Chubb will probably end up All SEC or All American ahead of L7. However, on draft night, he will be the 1st back taken.

Solid argument when the RB in question isn't a 3 down running back.
Keep acting like touchdowns aren't relevant. I'll just start ignoring your opinion because it's dumb.

One week's worth of stats. It's not much, but it's 100% more relevant than anything that happened in september of 2015 wouldn't ya say?

Jesus dude, I never said he SHOULD have scored. That doesn't change the fact that a touchdown turns a decent game into a good one. All you have to do is look at how people view McCaffrey after his game vs. how Fournette is being viewed. Similar yardage, yet McCaffrey is still in the top 3 for the heisman. I wonder why.....
Seriously, your argument that 180 yards and no TDs is just as good as Chubb's 220 yards and 2 TDs is fricking ignorant.
