    The bored trashed him to prop up your boy Huff. Davis played great too down the stretch

    Amazing how when everyone does their job everyone looks good. This team kept improving and played their best ball in November which is a sign of a good head coach

    Weird season. No one wanted to believe until it is over. Now I want more

    You'll get more next year, right?

    The stats are funny. Sure 4.7 ypc, but how many times this year did we have 4th and 1, and could not do it?

    Get an avatar you fucking savage.

    If you look at Papa and this collection of running backs, it was probably the least productive group since 2002.

    I dunno about that. If you look at the stats, we averaged 4.7 ypc as a team for the year. Papa averaged 6.2 with 10 TDs and Davis averaged 4.9 with 13TDs. The worst RB who saw non garbage time minutes was Nixon at 4.2. If Grubb didn’t hate the run so much, Papa is probably over 1000 and Davis isn’t far behind. Granted, the string of running backs we had in the time frame you mentioned is pretty crazy. Rankin, Polk, Sankey, Gaskin, Coleman, Ahmed. I’m probably forgetting someone too. This group is way better than the shit we ran out there last two years. 08 was obviously terrible, as were a couple other teams post Neuhiesel. I’ve been critical of the run game this year, but this group is probably 13th-14th if you stack it up against the RB groups the last 20 years, and we had some fucking legends on almost a yearly basis starting with Polk in 09.

    I never thought I'd love a UW RB as much as I loved Polk. I had a well documented man crush on him that you can read about in Derek's technically gifted writing book Rooting From Afar. And then Sankey shows up and while he didn't impede on my borderline homoerotic love for Polk, he came close. And then along comes MMFG and I'm fucking spoiled by 3 great RBs in a row at UW.
    I forgot about that project
