DeMarco Murray joins a very exclusive club

Fumbles or not, Cowboys running back DeMarco Murray has accomplished something that previously was achieved by only two other players in NFL history.

Murray has rushed for at least 100 yards in each of his team’s first five games. The only other players to do that were Hall of Famers Jim Brown and O.J. Simpson.

Nice stat, but quirky stat, not indicative of anything I can think of except all those players played on a run first team. I wont make much of this one. but still nice when a boy joins any club, no matter how obscure.

I see where you are coming from, but there is a reason its only been done a few times. There have been plenty of teams in between now and OJ's time that were run first.
