I didn’t make up anything. I extrapolated his current stats over the course of an entire season and let you decide whether or not he would duplicate those 90 and 75 yard runs. It’s not hard. You still haven’t answered those questions.
So you're using a stat that doesn't actually exist, but you're not making it up?
You do realize that's a direct contradiction, correct?

I think it's probably because Alabama rolls great backs in every couple of years. Most of the players on the all time list were feature back for the better part of four years.
Yep. That's the way I look at it as well. Either due to leaving for the draft early or mostly sitting behind guys for their freshman (and potentially sophomore) seasons... was just surprising on initial glance.

Here, let me help you out...

It’s called a projection - based on the stats he currently has. In this case, a mirrored duplication of what’s already there.
Will he duplicate his 90 & 75 yard runs?
Is 3.78 YPC below average?

You're using a guess as a counterpoint against factual data. This is beyond sad.

Nah. He's just trolling. It's the only thing he is above average at.

I’m using a projection by extrapolation - which is something every stats expert on the planet - including your fantasy draft experts use on a daily basis. Take it up with the statisticians if you have a problem with the method.
You haven’t answered my questions. Why are you running from them & afraid to answer?
I’m letting you decide his season total. 173 of his 175 runs (~99%) are averaging 3.2 YPC. If he finishes the year with 350 carries, will he be able to duplicate those 90 and 75 yard runs or not?
It’s a really simple question. I’m not sure why you’re refusing to answer. I’m only asking for your opinion.

I'll ban bet you right now that he has 3.79, or higher, YPC at the end of the regular season.
Put up or shut up.

Oh don’t flatter me. RB10 has already proclaimed me to be the worst troll on this entire website on page 2. In fact, “Flat our aren’t good at it.”
9 pages later and the next day, here we are.

All I’m asking you to do is answer those questions. You seem awfully worked up by someone you believe to be nothing more than a bad troll.
Will he duplicate those runs, or not?

The problem is your argument is based on a faulty premise. “The more yards per carry, the better the running back is.”
If that were the case, Aaron jones at Green Bay would be the number 3 running back, with dion Lewis and Orleans darkwa also in the top 10

Take the ban bet or don't. Are you going to be a twat?

His argument also holds that Fournette is better than Le'Veon Bell. Once that came out he decided we can't use Fournette's two longest runs.

There needs to be a minimum number of carries threashold, but yes - YPC is the ultimate litmus test for an all purpose, every down back.

Hahahah damn. It’s hilarious how upset some of y’all get about Fournette. The guy had 1 injury plagued year out of 3 and y’all constantly want to try downplay how good he is because of it. I get why Bama fans won’t give him respect, but it’s really funny listening to Georgia fans rip on Fournette

Leonard Fournette is having a better season than Le’Veon Bell and I haven’t argued anything other than that. In fact, I have bluntly called Bell’s season below average - especially for him, while maintaining LF is having an average year. You continue to fabricate arguments and statements that I’ve never said or even suggested. You’ve been doing it this entire thread.

I’m not taking a ban bet over a fricking random RB playing for a random NFL team that I care nothing about. That would be foolish. It doesn’t mean that much to me.

Says who? You?
Your argument is built on a faulty premise so there is no point debating if you keep referring back to your faulty premise as the proof

Right. You're a shitty troll and a pussy. Not a good combo.

Based upon, what? I mean, yards? YPC, TD's. Eye test?

Pretty much anyone trying to compare two RBs. YPC has been LSU fans’ best friend - until this thread, I guess.
