Sorry Tony but I gotta call BS. Lets do take stats out the equation look at the competition that Henry and Fournette has to go against now compared to Bo and Herschel. You have D lineman and Ends over 300 pounds running 4.5s and 4.6s. Im not saying Bo and Herschel arent great but to just dispel what the new generation is doing just because of what the old generation did isnt fair. I fully believe regardless of which team Henry is on whether its Auburn, LSU, Ohio State, etc, he can break over 1100 yards. His talent is just too good to be contained.

All you have to do is look at the raw freakish athletic talent of Bo and Herschel. Physically those two are on another level. Now I agree that Herschel probably couldn't have a 385 carry season against today's competition, but those two would rape defenses in any era.
Henry and Fournette are closer to Herschel than anybody we've seen, but still couldn't hold his jock. And Bo's combination of size, power, agility, and speed have yet to be and may never be matched. There's a reason he's still regarded by anybody with a valid opinion as the greatest athlete of all-time
