But, hey, Brooks does hold both the career and single season team records for fumbles by a non-QB with 31 and 9, respectively.  I think a lot of people forget how bad of a fumbler he was.

As I mentioned earlier, you've got a point if all you consider a RB doing is rushing the ball. Dillon didn't average as many YPG (receiving) as Joe Mixon, so does he really have a claim for best in team history

I gotta feeling you knew exactly what averages I was talking about. I was talking Yards per Carry, Yards per Catch, and Yards per Touch. Brooks touched the ball 1641 times as a Bengal and averaged 5.8 yards every time he touched it. Corey Dillon touched it 2057 times and averaged 4.6 yards every time he touched it.

I loved Corey Dillon, back in the 90s he was the ONLY thing a Bengal fan had to crow about, but if I'm naming an "All-Time" Bengal team I'm putting JB as my halfback. You and others can choose Dillon and I can appreciate that.
