Chasing Dickerson

I'm not sure then where the numbers came from on Sunday but I remember them having CJ ahead of ED's pace. Where did you get your numbers? Not calling you out, I think you did a great graphic, just curious

 

Great graphs, thanks for doing that.

 

Ok. I also like to look at YPC adjusting as the season goes on. ED averaged 5.55 YPC for the season and CJ is at 6.43 right now. And through the first 11 games ED was only averaging 5.5 YPC (you mentioned he got better). ED only had two 200+ yard games and CJ already has one that is more than both of ED's. As I type this I realize I'm preaching to the choir, beating a dead horse, pick your cliche :dead:

Here's to hoping CJ keeps up his YPC and gets his touches for the rest of the season!!

 

Chris is still ahead of Dickerson's pace.

It's currently 1,396 to 1,323. The problem is though, Eric had the following games to finish the season

Code:

132 yards
191 yards
149 yards
215 yards
92 yards

That's 156ypg.

And I believe teams will continue testing Vince's arm at our expense of limiting our ground game. So if CJ doesn't keep breaking those big runs to paydirt, or if we don't get big leads that force teams into a predictable passing game (when we start forcing turnovers the most), the lead Chris has this week could deceptive and he can easily fall behind pace.

I said earlier this year, he will either break Dickerson's season record, or AP's single game record one day. But I'm not sold he'll break the season record this year without a couple 200 yard performances. I hope I'm wrong, but you guys shouldn't get your hopes up just yet.

 

How ironic would it be for CJ to run up a 200+ yard game on the Rams on his way to break the record?

I'll be at the Christmas game. My gf is a little ticked but I'm taking her with me so she'll get over it

 

C.J.'s gonna break it.
