I am going to guess that Lawerence Maroney might be 1) and/or 2)

and I would say Nance or Cunningham for 3) and/or 4)


my second thought might be Faulk for one of them.

Seriusly i got this off the top of my head i didn't look it up. I almost put Don Calhoun down instead of cunningham. I shocked myself.

I didn't notice that the ansews were at the bottom of the thread starter until i submited it my answer.

My guess for lowest would be Marion Butts.

What about Reggie "One Yard" Dupard?

So you are saying that was right? I would have thought Tony Collins might be in there rather than Sam Bam.

No correct answers yet, some partial credit.
NOTE 1-4 are RUNNING BACKS ONLY. Grogan is the leader, but 1-4 only include RBs.
The bonus includes all positions.

I thought of collins, i almost put him down.

Grogan wrong because QBs not included.
Calhoun in fact is correct as #4. I actually had Faulk because he was higher when I sorted, but they were both 4.1. Calhoun was 4.1 and change Faulk is 4.0979.
Maroney is correct as best with 300+ carries.
Still missing best with 200+ and 600+ as well as the bonus quesiton.

Thanks one of the great movie charactors of all time. It Appropre in one of the sub forums (that won't be metioned) a few months ago.

Okay, no quarterbacks, then I'll go with Horace Ivory, Andy Johnson, Don Calhoun and Curtis Martin.

For the lowest average I'll stick with Marion big fat Butts over (under?) Reggie "one yard" Dupard.

 

[signbabybrady]

come on Andy out with it...we are on page two so people can still play if they read the posts in order.

200...Sammy Morris
300...Laurence Maroney
600...Corey Dillon
755...Was supposed to be Kevin Faulk until I rechecked and Calhoun edged him out.
would have been basically the last 4 RBs we have had are the guys with the highest averages in team history.

The lowest rushing average of all PLAYERS with 75 carries.....Tom Brady. Primary due to his vast experience with the Victory Formation.
