So, to recap, Fournette's 4.3 YPC is as good as Le'Veon Bell's career and better than Todd Gurley's. Therefore, all 3 backs are "below average" according to Tuscaloosa.
Such sound logic cannot be denied.

Really bizarre conclusion. Here, let me sum up my stance for you. I will use small words.
LF is nothing special. Here are the NFL backs averaging a higher YPC:
LF has inflated total rushing yards because he has carried the ball more than every single back in the league, with the exception of 2.
LF has averaged fewer than 4YPC in 6 of his 8 contests.
LF has only two rushes for 20+ yards.
Without those two rushes, LF would not have a single game in which he averaged 4+ YPC.
Le’Veon Bell is a very good back, having a below average year. His total rushing yards are highly inflated due to his number of carries. Prior to this year, he averaged 4.9, 4.9, and 4.7 YPC, respectively. Because of that, we know Bell is a very good NFL RB.
Leonard Fournette, as far as we know, is barely average and has flat out struggled in several games.
