I'm not kickin' on you uncle Jed ,,,but that's got to be the most suckassage football site I think I've ever 'clicked on' to,,, I hit the game 'stats' rushing leader and it only showed #46's, and the qb comparison showed zero interceptions for both QB's

 

[Melonfeud]

He was a good runner but not a complete back.

But he is the greatest RB of all time in this stat.

"Sanders also holds the NFL record for the most carries for negative yardage. According to the NFL, Sanders is the all-time leader in rushing yards lost by a running back with 1,114."

Now that's pretty bizarre

 

[haleyrules]

Give me Eric Dickerson..Walter Payton..Tony Dorsett and Emmitt Smith ahead of the shifty Sanders.

Lol! That's funny! You're alright man.

That boy is headin full speed into a bad case of chapped lips.

Ok? He's still arguably the greatest RB of all time. And the point is that, statistically, LeVeon Bell is about the same as Barry Sanders through their first 54 games.

Bell can’t stay healthy or stop being suspended.

In their first 4 seasons games played:

Bell- 13,16,6,12

Barry-15,16,15,16

Barry hit 54 in his 4th season. Bell hit it in his 5th.

So while the stat is technically true(the best kind) it’s completely misleading.

So while the stat is technically true(the best kind) it’s completely misleading.

How is that misleading? They have similar productivity after 54 games. Bell been's injured and suspended, true. But that has little to do with his productivity in the 54 games he actually played.

If bells the next barry.. I really hope zekes the next emmitt (rings included)

Sounds good to me.

 

[DuceizBak]

Zeke is easily the most talented skill based person on the team. I was also annoyed with Dez..it's basically storming and you're jawing at the coaches why they aren't airing the ball out?

 

[theebs]

Actually Emmitt had 35 carries for 163 yards in a Monday Night game against the Giants in 1994.

Oh guess I was off one.

 

[Thomas82]

Oh guess I was off one.

It's all good.......Emmitt also had 35 carries for 150 yards and 3 touchdowns in the 1995 NFC Championship Game against the Packers.

It’s misleading because it makes it look like Bell will have as many yards as Barry at 30. Again, the stats are technically true, just misleading.

Dont let it happen again

 

[haleyrules]

He could be..but they need to put that old defense back together!!

 

[haleyrules]

Nah, Zeke benefits from our O line. Still one of the better RBs in the league, for sure though.

Funny how Morris cannot do the same behind this o-line.

 

[zrinkill]

They both do/did, though. I think Zeke is one of the best RBs in the league still, arguably behind Bell and Gurley(Kareem Hunt maybe as well, but he's a rookie and only like half of the season in, so not ready to say anything about him yet).

Has to be a Giants fan ....... I bet Eli is a top QB in the game too huh?
