Chubb would've hit 2000 yards last season had he started 13 games as well.


So would Gurley...he was on pace for 2000+ and that's including his 6 carries for 73 yards against Troy.

Chubb had no carries against Troy, he just had screws put in his hand. He probably wasn't full speed with that hand until the end of the season. And that was a reply to someone that said Gurley was on pace for a 2000 yard season.

It's a pretty good problem to have...two of the best running backs the SEC has had since McFadden. Luckily we don't have to pick just one - we got to have both. Chubb looks faster to me - with and without a ball - so I'd pick him if I had to. Buuuuut I don't. I'm just glad we get to watch one of them again next year.

I'm really excited to see Sony play Healthy again. He's electric with a ball in his hands.

But the difference, WG, is that Gurley could not stay on the field. Be it because of injuries or suspension, Gurley couldn't stay on the field. Give me a running back that stays on the field and plays 13 games every time. Now, we don't know for sure that Chubb can do that, either. But right now it is looking good. I don't care how much potential somebody has. Or how many yards they COULD have gotten....actual production is what matters.

Gurley was great, but we are now debating what MIGHT have been if Gurley had stayed healthy....or what MIGHT have been if Gurley had not been suspended.
