Yeah I think your stats are missing something to make the comparison relevant.

His ability to gain yards after contact. It's a viable measurement of a RB's value and yes that stat is sick.

AD is the best rb in the NFL, it's a shame he's stuck on the Vikings.

That the one time that he wasn't tackled for a loss, he ran it 99 yards giving him a net positive of 51 yards.

btw, the second stat that says -1,206, doesn't tell you how many attempts that is. I'm going to guess many of those are sacks.
Formerly the notorious nyc!

I've got more red flags than Soviet Russia!

There is a good chance that you don't like me, but there is a better chance that I don't care.

If I'm not insulting you, I'm probably not aware that you exist.



Jerry Jones in the draft room is suicide on the football field. The line of scrimmage is EVERYTHING. Something Jerry doesn't understand.

Sacks aren't counted as rush plays in the NFL.

With these new rookie QBs, they should be.
