Title: who and why-most yards on offense
Post by: fb on June 30, 2007, 06:45:42 PM
What skill position guy will have the most yards on just offense (no return yards count).  I really think Nelson is going to have the most overall.  I am thinking around 900.  Patton and Johnson are going to be splitting carries and I don't think they have a ton of receiving yards.

Who do you guys think?

Patton or Johnson will have the most yards from scrimmage because of the rushing/receiving. 

Patton had 739 rushing/receiving last season and he barely played in the first 5 games of the season.  Me thinks he may get just a few more touches this season and from the first game.

And he put up those numbers basically splitting time w/ Johnson the second half of the season.

The OL should be improved which means possibly bigger runs or more consistent ypc rushing.  And if the passing game opens up the screens will be more effective which Leon can turn into bigger gains.

And I don't think Nelson will quite hit that high of a number because 1) we throw to our TE's and backs a lot and 2) He's not the type of talent who can be keyed on by a defense and put up those kind of numbers over a season IMO.

Patton, depending on his "special" case, should have the most yards. I hope the Patton and Johnson get 1,600 yards between them. Although that may be asking too much, they combined for 846 last year.
