Who is the best rookie running back in the NFC?

[speedkilz88]

How is that bad for a rookie and how does that debunk the theory that he isn't carrying his team?

This thread is about the best rookie in the NFC which he clearly is not. He's playing well so far nothing special.

And when your QB is Kyle Orton and you don't have much else to do except run, you aren't exactly going to be surprising anyone by handing off the football. He isn't on a team thats a threat anywhere else.

Do you really think Felix is gonna have a 9.6ypc when he gets a nice load of carries? Don't you think the fact that there a guy like TO, Witten, Barber, Romo, Austin all on the field at the same time as a threat it makes it easier for him to run?(well not barber) Also don't you understand if your carrying the ball 25 times a game your going to be tired. We can give credit to Felix Jones for being the best rookie back in the NFC when he carries the load.

If this were Reggie Bush in the same situation you wouldn't even argue that stupid point. This isn't who will be rookie of the year, its who is the best rookie now. Its very obvious who that is now, who knows when the season ends. Adrian Peterson was a part time back last year also.

Why not? Reggie Bush is a horrible running back. He is just a receiving threat out of the backfield and a pretty good football player but a horrible running back. Adrian Peterson averaged near 20 carries a game. He was the starting running back through and through. (specially since chester taylor got hurt early)

Felix and JStew are far more impressive than Forte. DB4L just stop with the Felix agenda already.

I'll give you a hint only one RB has more TD than him and thats Tim High tower. He has 4 TD 2 receiving and 2 rushing tied with Johnathon Stewart. No has more rushing yards attempts catches or receiving yards thats a rookie RB.

there's no agenda.

Felix also has 4 TDs, 3 rushing and 1 kickoff return for a td.

There is no such thing as rushing yard receptions.

 

[CrazyCowboy]

man, Forte has played more....but, I like Felix better

Forte has been used the most of any rookie running back -- BY FAR.

But that doesn't make him the best, by any stretch of the imagination.

Tim Hightower

yea but no rookie has better numbers than him so....

So what? He's not performing the best, and he certainly ISN'T the best. He has had more opportunties — that's it. If he had been drafted by Dallas and had 27 carries for 97 yards instead of getting 107 carries so far, would you still consider him the best? Obviously not.

Chris Johnson, Steve Slaton, Felix Jones and Darren McFadden have clearly performed better but have had fewer (some far fewer) opportunities.

Again, opportunity does not equal skill.

Lol are we seriously debating 3.6 vs 9.0?

Put Felix on the Bears. Put Forte on the Cowboys. See if it's the same.
