re: Chubb vs Fournette 2016

Chubb may be as good or better than Fournette. He's really good. You saw Fournette's numbers drop off starkly at the end of the season from 8+ ypc and 200+ ypg to 6+ and 160+ respectively. The law of great backs is that as total carries go up, ypc goes down.

It's really difficult to compare RBs because each play presents something different. They see multiple things and have multiple opportunities on each individual play. Even with common opponents, literally everything is different. You really have to look at entire careers and try to adjust for sample size, oline talent, schemes, opposing Ds etc, but even then, it's very subjective.

I haven't seen Chubb play a whole lot, but honestly, both could be top 5 all-time SEC good. I expect Fournette to finish #2 on the all-time SEC list and be within 100-200 yards of Herschel.
