K-9 Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Say what you will about his lack of speed at this point in his recovery, but he is tops in the AFC in the number of runs (8) over 20 yards. Hmm. I suspect he also leads the conference in runs for losses as well, but hey, why p**s in the parade. This kid will be something special. GO BILLS!!!

OnTheRocks Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 why is his ypc so low? 3.8 ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest_eyedog_* Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 why is his ypc so low? 3.8 ?? 158501[/snapback] Look in front of him. He should be given a medal for what he's done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SACTOBILLSFAN Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Also his ypc is low because he has lost yardage on more runs than any player in the AFC, wait until experience kicks in...he'll dominate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckeyeBill Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 why is his ypc so low? 3.8 ?? 158501[/snapback] Leading the league (probably) in carries for loss yields a low YPC. Consider, Willis McGahee numbers (probably) 9 straight carries by Willis 2 yards -1 yard 9 yards 1st down 6 yards 5 yards 1st down 8 yards -2 yards 4 yards 1 yard Touchdown Very successful drive right? Good job Willis!! Thanks for the points. But his YPC is only 3.5 for that drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBuffaloDisease Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 Yes I was going to say his YPC are low and his runs for losses are so high because of his blocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRH Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 I think Barry Sanders was an annual leader in carries for losses as well. The important thing is that Willis is such a load that he eventually wears down opposing defenses. Those big runs that he ripped off at the end of both Miami games were crucial.

stuckincincy Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 WMG seems to be very much like his pre-draft analyses were. Strong blocker, dances and picks holes if needed otherwise smart enough to follow the line, good hands, fairly hard to bring down, capable of a 15 yard gain or a 4-yard loss, hangs on to the ball.
