I wouldn't say elite and special are the same either. You can have a special season, but to be elite you have to be consistent. Plenty of players come into the league that look elite in college, but it doesn't translate into the NFL for whatever reason. Barkley has the talent, just like Chase Young, Clowney, Claiborne, Zack Wilson, and so on but none of those players are special or elite
He’s having injury issues. I don’t think he’s had a special career but coming into the draft he was consider a consensus top 5 pick and considered to be the next great back.
But I’m this instance if you say someone had a special season you’re saying just that. If you say a person is having an elite season it’s the same exact thing. If you say someone had an elite season you’re saying it was special.
What lol? You want to try that again? No one has ever held out? Or are you saying specifically at 2 years? It wasn’t greedy it was smart. Because what happened? They cut him lol.
You just literally said his rookie season was special so now it’s not?
What’s the difference in saying someone had a special season and saying someone had a elite season?
No...I did not. What? Quote where I said that.
Do you like any cowboy? Except rush an lance?
Did you not just argue me down saying that Zeke only had one elite season end Barkley had one as well? Then you said it wasn’t that special because Morris and Barkley did it their rookie year to?
Well a player can have an elite season and not be an elite player, one year wonders exist. A player can have a special season, but I think special is more subjective
Elite means you're in the company of those who played at the highest level. In this case, it would mean the player you are referring was alongside other high level players that season.
It did suck seeing him in another uniform. I hate the salary cap era.
Seemed like the biggest reaction was with Martin. Imo if this team wouldn't have had techmo bowl oc since 2019 Elliot would've had some serious stats. He was the best rb by far under Callahan. The run production, daks turnovers, and the ol blocking all got worse under Moore.
Elliot had better stats I think than Emmitt in their first 3 yrs.
No one even said anything about an elite player though. I’ve never seen a elite season season distinguishes from a special season honestly.
Because a RB is still a rookie. Most running backs are better year 2 than rookie season for a reason.
I don't remember ever bringing up Barkley before you did? Either way, are you losing track of what you said? You claimed I said it was special, i never once said ANYWHERE that Barkley's rookie season was special.
I'm talking bout the work ethic in the offseason. He always went back heavy took him awhile to get back in to shape. Emmitt was always a leader by example. On and off the field. Inseason and offseason. That's whyhe lasted so long. Never had any serious injury, and when he did, he just carried the team in a playoff win.
Parsons and Bosa had elite seasons last year, but I wouldn't say they were special seasons
Most RBs don't come into the league with the bonified best offensive line of the decade with 3 all-pros, two of which are future HOFers.
