Those are great plays, but they don't show him outrunning a defense.

Hey, you can win a heisman without elite speed (Ingram). I think Lattimore is more shifty with better vision.

I think Davis hits the hole harder and has more speed.

I don't care how bad Ole Miss was in 2010, he outran their entire defense and outran a safeties angle for >50 yards. That's the kind of speed I was talking about. The NFL values that kind of speed.

FWIW I could run all over our D focused only on the pass and then Mallet.



Not a true story...Remember what Dmac/Jones did

Could you run all over your D if they were focused on the run? DMAC can.

No kidding. They also value great vision, high football IQ, stronger-than-normal legs, low pad level, and the ability to block. Lattimore has all those things, as well

Yeah and then Tebow had an equally outrageous game the following week. We got McFadden to NY and won Tebow the Heisman. Our shitty defense that year was appeared several times on both of their highlight packages.

They do have a lot in common, both very powerful RB's.

Depends on what type of back you are looking for. Homeristically, I would say that Lattimore is the better overall back.
