465 rush attempts to 400 pass attempts. how many no huddle throws are in there? cause i know for a fact that they throw more meaningless passes than they take kneel downs to end games and halfs. so 60+% of the time tennesse runs the ball.

350 rushes to 461 pass attempts for dallas. so they run 40% or less of the time. so my point was accurate.

so comparing strictly stats is unfair int his argument becuase the titans have 115 more rush attempts than the cowgirls do. give marion babrber and jones 115 rushes to spilt and they probably have tennesse beaten in production.


the numbers dont lie, you are the retard.

I'd take the Barber/Jones combo over the Johnson/White combination. Chris Johnson is deep but Jones is deep too so they pretty much single each other out. So that leaves Barber vs White and Barber is the better running back. Lendale is boo boo away from the goal line.... he's useless outside of the 5 yard line.
remember the gang of shit you talked about Lendales YPC?

erm....Barbers is worst :cheeky: .....i guess Barber gets less yards per carry but is beasting in the open field :cheeky::cheeky::cheeky:

you said the titans run the ball 75 percent of the time...punch those numbers again and check back with me later mayne
i made the 75% comment in jest without even seeing the numbers. i was a whopping 10 or so % off in my jesting...... i know what point i was making...... THE TITANS RUN THE BALL MORE THAN THE COWGIRLS. SO IT IS NOT A FAIR ASSESSMENT.

i would like to see jones and barber split 115 carries down the middle, and then come back to calculate the numbers again. or peel 115 rushes off the titans stats and the average yard per carry and see what the numbers are there........ but as it sits now it aint a close, fair assessment.

if you woulda said just the CAPS it woulda been fair...running the ball 3/4 of the time is nearly impossible for a contending team....

drop Felix and add in Choice and its a closer match....

there is no debating whether a top 5 rushing attack is better or even equal to a rushing attack that isnt even top 10

i took every rush attempt per team. not just those 2 on each team for the total % of plays they rush vs pass.

This year even proves Barber is not a back who can carry a full load. His running style will have him sustaining many injuries. Hard runner yes. Can he carry a load? No. He belongs in a 2 back system.

good point...Barber put up probowl numbers "behind" Julius Jones...his first year as the "feature" back he is avg less then "the fattest rb in the leauge"...
