It is unbelievable he averages that per carry while also leading the league in negative plays

Imagine his average if he didn’t take so many negative plays. Probably over 7 yards a carry. In the freakin NFL.

and he didnt JUST step out of bounds twice in the last 2 games.

That is very Barry Sanders-esque.

Wow. Talk about some heady company.

If I hit a hole-in-one on this grand slam the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

Tim Graham posted this

Only four other running backs have led the league in rushing yards and averaged 6 yards a carry:
Jim Brown, 1963 Browns: 1,863 yards, 6.4 average.
Barry Sanders, 1997 Lions: 2,053, 6.1 average
Joe Perry, 1954 49ers: 1,049 yards, 6.1 yards.
O.J. Simpson, 1973 Bills: 2,003 yards, 6.0 average.

I would say that’s a pretty elite class to be apart of.

CJ’s kicking arse and taking names right now…

I had to stop arguing with drunks, Steeler fans, and all other fools.
It was making my brick wall jealous...

lets enjoy him guys, weve got something special here

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
People'd call, say, "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"
You thought they were all kiddin' you.
