What NFL teams have figured out (just like saban did at bama) is that you do not want him to get into the second level with any head of steam. He is least effective when you leave no hole at all.






More jibberish from a washed up old man. What RB do you want to get to the second level with a head of steam?
Not wanting this makes these NFL coaches and Saban brilliant.

And what RB is most effective when you leave them no hole.

This is some brilliant analysis

None, but nobody punishes second level defenders like LF.

No comparison. Zeke is much better at getting to the second level and then punishing defenders. Makes more money than Lennie also

This is false.

Fournette's average salary is 6.786 mil per year
Zeke's is 6.239 mil per year

Fournette's total contract value is 27.150 mil
Zeke's is 24.956 mil.

Fournette also has more guaranteed money.

Nice try though buddy. Stick to trolling with college football. Leave the NFL to the big boys.

It’s not an emotional or irrational statement. LF finished the season with 268 carries. 266 of those averaged 3.28 YPC.



Anyways, I'm going to have to agree with Tuscaloosa on this one.

Fournette's YPC in his rookie year is just barely better than LaDainian Tomlinson's rookie year. And we all know how much of a scrub that dude turned out to be.

Tomlinson averaged 3.6 YPC his rookie year.

Fournette averaged 3.9.

Fournette averaged 80 yards rushing per game and 23.2 yards receiving.
Tomlinson averaged 77.3 rushing yards per game and 22.9 yards receiving.

With that, Fournette barely had more yards from scrimmage per game than that scrub, Tomlinson, as well.

Fournette averaged 103.23 yards from scrimmage per game
Tomlinson averaged 100.19 yards from scrimmage per game

They both only had 10 TDs also.

Regardless, we can all agree that Fournette's career is doomed after seeing this kind of paltry output in his rookie season. Anyone putting up slightly better per-game stats than Tomlinson is on the fast track to ordinary.

Re - Bama owning Fournette.


I'll say it again. LSU wasn't paying him quite as well as the Jags. Makes a difference.

I like Ingram alot but simply looking at stats isn't a great indication of who is better. Ingram plays with one of the best offenses in football. They are extremely well rounded. While Jacksonville does have the BOAT (Blake Bortles) they are not in the same planet as the saints offensively. So Ingram is in a better position to gain yards. Put Fournette on the Saints and he rushes for 1500 yards this year easy.

I hadn't realized until recently how shitty of a poster you are. Have you always been this bad or you trying out some new stuff.

Bama owned Miles' oline, dline, QBs, RBs, etc. But Fournette is damn good NFL RB.

LF finished behind Ingram in the regular season, and even had more carries.

Fournette sucked against Bama because LSU’s OL is garbage not because LF7 isn’t talented.

Nope. It had more to do with our stacked front seven than their OL.

Either way it doesn't mean Leonard is garbage. I don't know how many NFL running backs presently are that get 10 or more touches each game, but I do know enough to realize that regardless of what they did in college, each of them are straight up bad asses just to be able to take the punishment alone.
