Player B can have 20 yards rushing, 10 yards receiving and 3 TDs during a game. 

Who, in your opinion, had the better game? 

What if player A had a 95 yard rush that went all the way down to the five yard line, got tired and had to be spelled, while his backup came in and rushed for 5 yards and picked up the TD? Who had the better series and who was more productive to get the actual touchdown? I would say player A. 

In fantasy football, touchdowns are important. In real life, I would rather have the guy that's racking up yards and has a high YPC or YPR. The touchdowns will come, its who made up the majority of the yards to get that touchdown is what im interested in. 

This is 100% correct. Remember the times Gio would move the ball down the field, only to have Hill come in and push it into the end zone?

I had a real problem with this. It happened way too often.

Well, I didn't have a problem with getting the touchdown, but I felt bad that Gio was getting his TD's whored out to Hill....

Me either, we are on the same page with this. No offense to Hill because I was grateful for the score. But poor Gio did most of the work while Hill made the hilights for 1-2yd TD run. Ugh!

I like Malone,he is very fast and tall and seems to know how to get open,now only of goofy marvin plays him ALOT. And I really like Rawls,he is a beast and believe me he is much better than the rook they drafted,Rawls is very strong and can pull guys for extra yards and I hope they play him back of Mixon.He is the real deal.If he gets on the field,you will see what I mean.WHO-DEY !!!!!!! :andy:

So a guy who had 2 full practices in a week (including the one closest to the game, even if it IS a walkthrough), are going to sit?

Please.

boy, Wake has always been a thorn in our side even when we had good Tackles.   Him being out helps more than anything else.

What are you guys talking about?

You are aware that Jeremy had MORE YARDS rushing than Gio-van, every year he was with us, right? (save for last year)

That is usually the case when you get more touches.

Gio is a really good back. Its a shame that things didn't work out with Hill but with Mixon we have the best of both guys if he can stay healthy.

This.

Yeah, but they were saying Gio was getting all the yards and Hill was just vulturing TD's. It didn't really happen that way. 

Either way, Gio has never been a great goal line back. 19 rushing TDs in 75 games.

I don't think the coaches have avoided using him there because they don't like him.

True just looking at TDs
