C26 Run Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 A friend and I were having a debate today about who is the best RB in todays' game. Now all this is based on Larry Johnson holding out of KC to get more money. Personally I do think he should hold out for more money. He is the key to that offense winning games and trying to earn a playoff spot but that's not the debate. I think he should paid like the 2nd best RB in the league behind the best LaDainian Tomlinson. So who should be paid more? And who is the best RB in the NFL? What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. S Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Tomlinson, and agreed, why are you asking? Larry Johnson is good, but he's also a product of that line, and his deficiency has been showing as that line has gotten older and retired. Steven Jackson may come close to LT this year, but not close enough to warrant much more attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan since a Fetus Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Tomlinson, and agreed, why are you asking? Larry Johnson is good, but he's also a product of that line, and his deficiency has been showing as that line has gotten older and retired. Totally agree on all points here. This is what I was going to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taylorcoreskin Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Portis is so good he was able to get number 90 to block for him. LT is so good that he's able to get the entire opposing team to block for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BAFGA Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 LT. And it ain't close. I know why is this even a post? Talk about a softball question. As for all-time? Probably Sweetness overall, although if I needed 2 or 3 yards for a first down I'd hand the ball to Riggo every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prophet Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Past 2 years 32 starts: LT 687-3277 4.7 46tds rec: 107-878-8.2 8tds 25 starts: LJ 752-3539 4.7 37tds rec: 74-753-10.1 8tds I think it is alot closer than you guys think. SD is a heck of a better team than KC has been the past 2 years. Not to mention KC's line was a joke last year, and played with a back up qb.

brianforster Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 did i miss something on steven jackson, i dont remember him being that dominant, but someone was talkin about drafting him high in fantasy and now here.. i try to follow every team and all, but i dont remember seeing this guy do anything special. (but am open to stuff i didnt see/cant remember) have i been hiding under a rock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
