Falcoholic Community Projects: Running Back

by Dave Choate on May 24, 2008 10:33 AM EDT in Falcons News

As was the case with our previous attempt at this, I'm looking for as many responses as I can get projecting just how our set of running backs are going to do this year. Do you think Michael Turner will be the bruising, 1,500+ yard power back we all hoped for? Will Jerious Norwood dash and sidestep his way to over 1,000 yards? Can Thomas Brown provide the team with a value in his first year? Where does Jason Snelling fit? Will I ever stop asking questions?

So go ahead and make your projections based on the following criteria:

Rushes/Yards
Yards per game/Average per carry
Touchdowns
Fumbles
Receptions/Yards/TDs
Number of Dirty Bird Shuffles

Go go go!

Prediction

Turner’s stats:
1. 311 rushing attempts for around 1400 yards
2. He’ll average around 87.5 yards a game/4.5 yards a carry
3. 13 TDs
4. 2 fumbles (only 1 lost)
5. 300 recieving yards for 6 TDs (30 receptions total)
6. Turner will bring back the Dirty Bird. He’ll do it at least once a game. So sixteen times (at the VERY least). That’s what I am hoping for anyway.

runningback

Here I thought this was a post about ME!

Turner = 1338 yards exactly. 11 rushing td’s, 1 rec td.
Norwood = 419 yards with a gaudy ypg avg north of 5.0
runningback = 62 comments with an avg RPP (reply per post) of 2.3.

In a way, each of us has an El Guapo to face.
