Christian McCaffrey

[CaneScott]

McCaffery breaking Sanders record is not nearly as impressive as so many people are trying to make it out to be.

His numbers are impressive, but I agree with you. They are adding Kickoff Returns and Punt Return to McCaffrey's total. Sanders didn't returned Kickoffs or Punts. Sanders' total was primarily from the running back position

Barry Sanders did indeed return kicks his Heisman season. In fact, he returned the opening kickoff in the first game for touchdown, and scored on another KOR later in the season.

Barry Sanders' record-setting 1988 season might never be duplicated

He didnt return nearly as many though. Sanders from scrimmage blows McCaffrey out of the water.

363 plays 2734 yards and 37 TDs for Sanders from scrimmage in 11 games
360 plays 2387 yards 12 TDs for McCaffrey from scrimmage in 13 games

Breaking the record for all purpose yards is very hollow with all things considered.

Then the record he broke is hollow, all things considered.

Honestly I consider just about any yardage record to be pretty much worthless.

Should have been the heisman winner....dude doesn't need 40 carries and tired defenses to do work

Absurd that he didn't win it. Kid broke the record for all purpose yardage in a season playing against an elite schedule.

Take off the hater glasses. Henry and Watson both had better resumes than McCaffrey did.

Lets forget about the fact that Mccaffrey has 40 less carries and a better average ypc while also being a significant receiving threat, and a special teams threat. Last time I checked, all of your stats get included and this kid is a weapon in every facet of the game. If Alabama loses Henry, they are not going to be hurt that much by it. If Stanford loses Mccaffrey, they would be hurt quite a bit.

It's amazing how much of a RUNNING BACK this kid is.

His feel is Duke like.

 

[LuCane]

Of all his crazy athletic attributes, I think his balance is most impressive. He wastes almost no movements.

Fair enough. Can't say I disagree.

Take off the hater glasses. Henry and Watson both had better resumes than McCaffrey did.

Henry had an SEC schedule, more rush yards (2,061 vs 1,847) and more TDs (25 vs 13) because Stanford gives the ball to Wright (13 TD) at the goalline.

McCaffrey averaged more yards per carry (5.79 vs 5.74), had more receptions (41 vs 11), and more receiving yards (540 vs 91).

Total Yards from Scrimmage:
McCaffrey - 2,387 on 360 touches
Henry - 2,152 on 370 touches

Oh yeah - he had ~1,700 return yards too.

Yearby is nice like that too when it comes to balance.

Too bad he is 2 tenths of a second faster and too bad his offensive line are turnstiles

Patriot fans will love him.

And he'll play for the Pats while going to grad school at Harvard or MIT.

Henry gets hyped up because he broke a conference rushing record. McCaffery breaks Barry Sanders all-purpose yards record, not a peep during the Heisman discussion.

You clearly never watched Barry. He returned a good amount for TDs. Barry did it all.

Lol no. Just no

 

[NotoriousJJE]

Remember how Larry Bird said he felt disrespected when white people guarded him?

That's what this game reminds me of.

His grandfather is a Great dude and one of the best athletes no one has heard of.

Guy reminds me so much of Braxton Berrios. Uncanny.

His father was straight cash on deep in and slant routes. He also threw some nasty blocks. Underrated dude.

You can have good athletics and good academics at a university.

First play and he was gone. Over 300 all purpose yards and makes it look easy.
