The OFFICIAL Darren Mcfadden is a BEAST thread !!!

Bush is a decent back...average is a good term. Fargas is a solid back...you've talked about him only being good at the end of last season...yet he had 1,000+ rushing. That's good. It's not easy to gain 1,000 with no O-line or passing game.
McFadden is not a beast or whatever the popular phrase is for him this week, but he has the potential to be a top-5 back very soon, IMO. Notice the italicized portion of my post.

First of all, splitting carries helps his average. Second, he's averaging almost 15 carries per game, that's a full load for many starting backs in the league. Don't try to act like he's getting under 10 carries per game and still getting 100 yards rushing. THAT would be beasting, but that's not what's going down.
He had ONE good game against the worst team in the entire league. That particular game significantly improved his average. So like I said, one game is not enough.

Fargas iz good off the bench & played well last year but he's not a featured back type of dude to me.....Just like a few other backs.....U guys give that guy way too many points..... And D-Mac being a top 5 back "soon" is too laughable........
In no particular order
Reggie Bush
Fred Taylor
Edgerrin James
Maurice Jones Drew
Ladanian Tomlison
Frank Gore
Larry Johnson
Marshawn Lynch
Willis McGahee
Clinton Portis
Adrian Peterson
Marion Barbar
Steven Jackson
Joseph Addih
These backs I named and several others are way better then him right now so unless he becomes Jim Brown or Marshall Faulk overnight he has a very long ways till he cracks that top 5......And save that sharing back bullshit cuz AD & Chester Taylor share just like Taylor/Jones Drew & Jones/Barbar.....And they are shittin on the Raiders duo big time.

I'm not doubting that he's not an every-down back; I'm making the point that he's a good back who had a great year last year. You may not agree with ''great'', but with no offensive line, no QB, no WR's, and him being a 'decent' back, it was great for him (and for us, for sure. lol).
Yeah...I said ''potential''...Kijana Carter had potential, too. I think he has the POTENTIAL to be a top-5 back. I'm not dillusional, thinking he's a ''beast'' right now. That list you put up was very impressive, indeed, except it doesn't prove anything besides the fact that there are a lot of backs on there that he'll have to compete against to get to that point.
I never said anything about it being RIGHT NOW. Soon, IMO, he'll be a very solid back. POTENTIALLY in the top 5, which is mostly a matter of opinion.
Huh. I must have missed that part. I didn't remember mentioning, or even believing in that arguement. Got me there. :ermm:

all listed have PROVED they can do it on a consistint basis.....mcfadden is 3 games into his career....i would easily take every back on that list on proof alone.....mcfadden could break out and shit all over them.....but the proof is right now that mcfadden has only 1 game that he looked more then average.....and even that game he couldnt hold onto the ball....which is probally the biggest thing a rb has to do in his career
reggie is a bust at number 2 but a solid player.....anyone expecting him to run between the tackles was wrong from the jump.......but on his KR.....PR....pass catching and after the catch average i wouldnt say hes any where near a busted project...he is easily the most talented person on that good offense......when he is on the field defenders HAVE to look after him....without bush saints wouldnt even be in the running for shit.....
