Guess who leads the NFC in rushing yards per game? Julius Jones, baby.
Nice find, thanks. What is his average thus far this season?
On a side note, Julius hit exactly 2,200 career rushing yards yesterday in only 25 games played. That's an 88 YPG avg. Obviously, I won't dare place him against the NFL All-Time Rushing leader, but Emmitt had an 81.2 YPG career avg.
The only reason I mention this, is that it seems Julius gets very little respect in todays NFL in comparison to my memories of commentary on Emmitt back in the days....Or is it just me? Also, Julius has more career rushing yards than both Kevin Jones and Stephen Jackson (in less games played).
Just trying to find a shred of optimism after yesterday's performance (or lack thereof). So I guess I'll consider it a tribute day for E. Smith, as both Julius and Witten eclipsed 2,200 career yards on the same day.
