B clearly has the better stats, but anyone with any football IQ knows a mediocre back with a great line is better than a great back with a mediocre line.

Idk who either runner is. Nor do i care. Have a downvote.

I'd say there is no way you can make a determination with such a small sample size. But then again, I try not to be a homer.

Well this changes everything.

I would much rather like to see down and distance for those 20 runs because if they are all 3rd-1 3rd and 2. Then its understandable.

That seems like a precedent you don't want to set for future discussions.

Running Back A

Was drafted because......

Running Back B
runs like he is a member of the LGBaTm community. Is he gay? Not that it matters to me, but he runs like he has a lot of sugar in his britches.

Tom Coughlin wanted a man to bring toughness to his running game. You just can't get that with the used up bitches from bama.

Running Back A got over 1000 yds as a rookie. A feat twinkle toes TJ still hasn't accomplished.

This is beneath you George. This is cajunbamaesque stuff.

Fournette has already had some injury troubles this early into his career. I’m not sure exactly how long of a productive NFL career he is going to have especially since he’s a “bell cow” RB.
