Eight days till the next Bengals game so let's take a break for a second to discuss his chances.
Since i'm watching a show about OJ Simpson, let's use him as a comparison.
Years:
Simpson-- 11
Dillon -- 10
Carries:
Simpson-- 2,404
Dillon -- 2,618
Yards (rushing):
Simpson-- 11,236
Dillon -- 11,241
Yards (receiving):
Simpson-- 2,142 (203 receptions)
Dillon -- 1,913 (244 reception)
YPC:
Simpson-- 4.7
Dillon -- 4.3
TDs (rushing):
Simpson-- 61
Dillon -- 82
TDs (receiving):
Simpson-- 14
Dillon -- 7
Intangibles:
Simpson-- Heisman trophy, overall #1 draft pick, 1973 MVP, 2,000 yd rushing season
Dillon -- Six straight 1,000 yd rushing seasons to start career and seven out of first eight, SB ring, held rookie single-game rushing record (1997) and NFL single-game rushing record (2000) simultaneously for a time.
Both played for perennial losers (until Dillon went to NE, of course). Simpson was inducted in 1985.
