Zeke 2nd only to Jim Brown?

Zeke can have a hall of fame career if he keeps up this pace. Looks what he’s done with chaos that’s been at the forefront of his career. Suspension was looming. Then led to suspended 6 games Terrible oc calls. Players retiring. Players released. Injuries to Oline. Criticism etc. in no particular order.
 
Fascinating, although I wonder if Jim Brown's era was a lot more RB-friendly.

1. Running backs only had to play a 12-game season, not 16 games. So there was less wear and tear on RBs.
2. It was much more of a run-heavy era than today's pass-happy offenses. So Brown might have gotten more carries.

It would be better to compare by yards per carry average.

Right to average that over 16 games is much harder. Also the RBs today may be more involved in the passing game.
So more wear and tear on the body as well.
 
Well, Garrett has been accused of trying to befriend the team rather than coach them. You want to be everyone's buddy you bring donuts, right? But don't forget the sausage rolls. I loves them little suckers.
And the Grey Poupon.

RBs were hit much harder then, and dog piled, and dragged down any way possible.

Once again, comparing eras is apples to oranges.
