Sorry
@GeronimoJackson I'm a stat guy so I kept digging. Here's some more side by side comparison's between EG/CJ2K
EG
96' - 335 1368 8 // #4 in Att, #5 in yds // LL had 353 carries
97' - 357 1399 6 // #3 in Att, #5 in yds // LL had 375 carries
98' - 348 1294 5 // #4 in att, #7 in yds // LL had 410 carries
99' - 320 1304 9 // #6 in att, #6 in yds // LL had 369 carries
00' - 403 1509 14 // #1 in att, #3 in yds // LL 403 carries
01' - 315 939 5 // #6 in att, #17 in yds // LL had 356 carries
02' - 343 1165 12 // #3 in att, #14 in yds // LL had 383 carries
03' - 312 1031 5 // #12 in att, #16 in yds // LL had 392 carries
CJ2K
08' - 251 1208 9 // #12 in att, #8 in yds // LL had 376 carries
09' - 358 2006 14 // #1 in att, #1 in yds // LL 358 carries
10' - 316 1364 11 // #6 in att, #4 in yds // LL had 334 carries
11' - 262 1047 4 // #8 in att, #14 in yds // LL had 343 carries
12' - 276 1243 6 // #10 in att, #9 in yds // LL had 351 carries
13' - 279 1077 6 // #6 in att, #11 in yds // LL had 314 carries
Cj2K career high is 358, more than 40 carries higher than his #2 season which is 4 carries above EG's lowest total as a Titan.
That 358 would rank #3 against the league 7/8x throughout EG's career, 2x would lead the league.
EG career low is 312 as a Titan. That would be #5 in 5/6 seasons of CJ2K's career. His carries by year beat the LL of CJ2K's seasons respectively as such, 1, 2, 5, 4, 2, and 7x)
I point this out because the amount of use between EG to CJ2K is not close and clearly the league also dropped the number of carries on their lead back throughout CJ2K's career (smartly I might add considering the wear and tear of a guy like EG) He had just shy of 1000 more carries in only 33 more games.
Couple other notes towards EG's HoF worthiness:
in 8 years as a Titan, never missed a start.
His 130 consecutive games is #2 for all RB behind only Walter Payton (170)
He is only 1/2 RB to reach 10K without missing a start (Jim Brown)
10K no HoF currently: * = not eligible yet
Frank Gore*
Adrian Peterson*
Edgerrin James
Fred Taylor
Steven Jackson*
Corey Dillon
Leshaun McCoy
Warrick Dunn
Ricky Watters
Jamal Lewis
Thomas Jones
Tiki Barber
Marshawn Lynch*
Ricky Williams
I would agree some of those names deserve it more than EG but many all played in the same era as EG explaining what a difficult time it is for RB of his time to get in.
