But this is a perfect example of a stat that is not as impressive as it sounds.  Although Gio deserves all the credit for doing something only 4 other players have done he really isn't in the same class as the other 4.

Here are the yards per game for Gio and the others

Le'Veon Bell.........119.0
Matt Forte............112.6
Jamaal Charles.....109.9
DeMarco Murray....105.7
Gio Bernard........... 76.4

Production is production. I would assume Gio's averages are lower because he has not been hurt as much as others on the list. You get me 100 yards in one game and don't play the next, then you have averaged 100 yards per game. You get me 70 yards in 1 game and 80 yards in the next; you have averaged 75 yards per game. Which RB has helped you more?
