Stats are fun to look at and all, but Fournette went up against a stacked box on every carry. Not saying either is better because they are both monsters but your stats don't mean anything IMO.

LOL if you don't think Gurley and Chubb were playign against run-stopping defenses every game as well. Hutson Mason was our QB, one of our top 2 WRs sat the season out, and Malcolm Mitchell was brought along slowly the first half of the year coming back from injury.

We're comparing 2 football players with the same length of career at the same position playing in the same league. Stats are a pretty damn good indicator.

This is such hilarious deflection. You know good and well if LF had the best stats in the league you'd all point to that as to why he's the best. But since he's not and doens't, "oh, well stats are irrelevant".

Wanna know how I know you didn't watch any UGA games this year?

Chubb ran against those same stacked boxes. UGA was no threat to go downfield with Mason. Most of his throws in every game were hitches, little comebacks, etc. in the 5-7 yard range. Chubb ran against a stacked box as much as LF.
