Why take out return yds to me that is what puts him at the top.

He had 1048 return yards on 36 returns including a 98 yarder for a TD and he had about a 28 yard average. Take away the td and he had a 27 yard average or about 2 yards more per play than if he had taken a touch back, which is likely nowadays in most cases. Also, his D sucked balls and gave up more than 30 points many times so he was probably returning 4 kicks a game. Also, the defenses he played against averaged about 80th or so in the country. The one really good D he played, they lost and he was non existant; 80 yards total and no td's. Outside of everyone wetting their pants over an athletic white kid, I don't think he deserves it over Henry or Watson.
