Henry 146yds/ game 6.25 YPC
LF 172yds/game 6.92 YPC
Elliot 144 yds/game 6.35 YPC


Now do a deeper dive and see where those yards came from. How did LF do when it mattered most against the best 2-3 teams he played? how did Henry do in those same situations? How about Zeke?

I like LF. Seems like an awesome person and a great player, but being non-factors in games where his team gets beat by double digits while the opposing running backS (2 backs on Bama and 1 - almost 2- on Arky) outrushed him in those games is not a Heisman trophy winning performance. I don't care what he did against Syracuse and Western Michigan. What did he do against the big boys?

I dont disagree in principle. But judging by Heisman past, if you have a sizable lead in overall stats it does matter. Look at RG3 and Andre Ware. And IMHO over 30 yards more a game and .7 YPC is pretty sizable.
