Twitter: Who had the better start to their career?

khiladi · Jul 6, 2020

Emmitt lacked top flight speed, but his acceleration out the gate and his ability to see the hole opening was top notch. Four of his five linemen were there when Dallas was 1-15 and getting destroyed. He wasn’t a product of his line.

Average yards per carry in NFL for Emitt's first four seasons: 3.9

Average yards per carry in NFL for Zeke's first four seasons: 4.3

BS
You need to re-look at Emmitt’s 1st 4 years.
Way higher than 3.9

4.51 to be exact

This is about as good an answer as there is.

Well, wouldn’t that be winning? You got someone to change their opinion?

Sure, but most of the time exposing them as clueless can be just as fun.

You really can't read, huh?

That was the NFL's average yards per carry, not Emmitt's. You didn't have to do the math the twitter link shows what Emmitt's ypc was. Lol.

Funny thing is you took such offense to Emmitt's number, and not Zeke's.

I didn't say anything about "liking my posts".....I'm just not stupid. Its clear you got burner accounts the same 3 people like your posts. Wisen up.

If you been on a site for 12 years.....and have 33,000 posts...how many posts per day is that?

Because the game is different. I am not certain how you are but in todays games, you have way more snaps on Offense then you ever did, even when Emmitt played. The Defenses today are really not built to stop the run. They are built to defend the pass. The Defenses that Emmitt played against when he was coming up were just different. Was a much more physical game in those days. You could target the football with your helmet, you could target the head, you could actually target the center and play him heads up on the snap. You could gang tackle. You could actually finish off ball carriers. So many things are different now in how the game is actually played, that effect the stats.

It is true there's less backs carrying the ball 300+ times a season. In the 90s really up until the 10s we sometimes saw 10+ backs do it, while today its 1 or 2 at most. However, the fundamentals of the running game aren't much different, teams just do it less often. However, when teams play the Cowboys they know Zeke will get a lot of runs and just like Emmitt teams game plan against the Cowboys to stop the run.

I don't think it's a stretch to compare Emmitt and Zeke's career starts. Regardless I think Emmitt's is better.
