What DeMarco Murray Could Do Tonight

[Hostile]

If he gains 100 yards tonight he will join OJ Simpson and Emmitt Smith as the only RBs to ever put up 100 or more yards in 4 straight games to open an NFL season. No one else has ever done it. Emmitt in 1995, OJ in 1973. OJ did it in 5 straight.

 

[Joe Realist]

If so, it means we are in the game.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

He already has 41 yards on 8 carries early in the 2nd quarter. Not bad.

 

[Zordon]

that's a pretty shocking statistic.

 

[John813]

16 yards away in the 2nd quarter.

 

[hornitosmonster]

I think he will get it

 

[Fender]

You think Demarco will take a 3 year deal to stay?

 

[viman96]

Murray needs 13 yds in the 2nd half to join the club

So close already!

 

[TheRomoSexual]

And he did it!

 

[hornitosmonster]

Those boring first round picks are paying huge dividends

 

[Hostile]

How awesome is this?

 

[mitchell2254]

I loved the early Romo years and us throwing it all over field. Never imagined I would enjoy watching Murray and our O-Line manhandle people this much. It is a thing of beauty!!

 

[TellerMorrow34]

Glad he got this but if we screw around and lose this I'll be pissed

 

[Hostile]

I did not know about Jim Brown.

 

[Hostile]

I looked it up. Jim Brown did not do that against NFL teams. it was 1958 when Cleveland was in the AAFL.

Really hoping to see Murray do it again next week.

Nice stat...

DeMarco Murray is leading the NFL in rushing yards before contact (281) and yards after contact (191).

 

[Clove]

This thread is a win.

 

[Irving Cowboy]

I looked it up. Jim Brown did not do that against NFL teams. it was 1958 when Cleveland was in the AAFL.

That is incorrect. Cleveland had been in the NFL already since 1950.

 

[Irving Cowboy]

And I think you mean the AAFC, which would still be incorrect. There was no AAFL back then.
