If you took the time for some critical thinking you would realize you just proved my point.

Baltimore run game production pre Derrick Henry was worse than Pittsburgh.

2023 Gus 810 yds
2022 Dobbins 520 yds
2021 Freeman 576 yds
2020 Dobbins 805 yds
2019 Ingram 1018 yds
2018 Edwards 718 yards

Explain that?

I'm not going to spend time and 'splain to you that not one of those bums, on your list, yes even Bama product, Mark Ingram II, can compare to Derrick Henry.

Please stop. Their scheme and threat of Lamar plus Henry is a nightmare. Period the end.

Like making Minkah the highest paid safety after watching him be a game changer, and then just having him play centerfield, I'm so glad our Coach is smarter than everyone else.

Like Telling his best playmaker on D to forget using his instincts (and doing what has worked many times against Lamar) and instead singularly focus on Henry and look like a faked out bafoon for following the HC’s directives.

You would have to try really hard to find a bigger hurdle to player success than Mike is.

Well there's only been how many 2,000 yard seasons? Point is he played on a bad team behind a horrible line in NYC and averaged 4.3 ypc and had a ton of long runs. Derrick Henry rushed for 2000 in 2020 for Tenn, can anyone name one of their Olinemen without looking, with Tannehill at QB. Frank Gore from 2005 to 2010 for the 49ers, averaged over 4.5 ypc, those teams never had a winning season over that span and he had to many runs to count that went for 40+.
Najee isn't a bad player, I just don't think he's a feature RB.

I know they had Ben Jones at C- only cuz I’m a GA fan haha

If memory serves they had Saffold on that line too at G

Maybe Conklin or Lewan at one or both of the tackles??
Think they were around that time period…maybe Quessenberry by that point??

Doing this from memory (as per the assignment) so can’t guarantee anyone past Ben Jones 🤣

OK

2023- gus injured
2022 dobbins injured
2021- Freeman injured(had to look that one up
2020- dobbins injured.
2019- good year but injured
2018- got tired of looking it up. But I will just say splitting carries cause he wasn't the #1 back

Harris - never injured.

Long list of RB that couldn't get it done there before him. Despite the line and coaching.

There are examples of this all over the league, Running game is putrid until a difference maker at RB comes to town.

Tampa Bay was horrible with Rashaad White Bucky Irving comes in and lights it up.
Eagles with Sanders was ugly, Swift was mediocre, Barkley comes in and basically breaks the rushing record.
Lions were average to below with Swift? Gibbs top tier RB
Packers and jacobs
Rams were bad with akers, Kyren Williams has been a top 5 RB two years straight

People don't want to hear it but Talent still matters at RB

LOL Harris has had worse stats than every one of those Bums
Just admit Harris is a Bum compared to the top RB's in the league
The situation was the same, the outcome was very different with Henry.
Talent matters

Just 4 straight 1000 yards seasons to start his career. Never fumbles. Never missed a game. Played hurt at times. Played in the worse offensive scheme in football. Dude simply outright sucks.

Come on, you know that every back in the league is hitting 1000 yards these days, it's just too easy with the 17th game and all. And I bet Harris isn't even the only one to do it 4 straight years or anything...:geek:
 
Coryea said:
No, I'm pointing out that there are alot of RB's that have done really well on bad teams and bad Olines. Yes, if he was able to break off long runs like Henry etc. he'd be a much better feature back, not sure what there isn't to under stand there.

You want some bad running backs? Walter Abercrombie, Ernest Jackson, Frankie Pollard all played on those bad 80's teams and had a better ypc and long run than Najee did.

I don't know about Abercrombie, but Jackson and Pollard were underrated, they were not bad backs.

Jackson had a career average of 3.9. His longest run was 59 yards.🤔

I was surprised looking at his stats and only seen him having just over 4k for a career. I always liked him when he came here. Career was over after his three seasons here.

Buddy reportedly traded him for a 6-pack, and it wasn't even cold.

He’s the ONLY running back to do it their 1st 4-seasons in the league.

Dri Archer is better than Najee.
Will Parker is better than Najee.
The wino in the alley sippin' on Ripple is better than Najee.

Did I miss anyone else of relevance???

At one time, that Wino could have been me, so you’re pretty spot on with this.
