#11 on NFL career yards-per-carry list

[fredtoast]

Over the 103 years of NFL history 548 players have rushed for over 2000 yds in their career.

If you list them in order of "yards per carry" #11 is former Bengal QB Ken Anderson at 5.6.

if you're talking impressive yards per carry in a Bengals career then i am obliged to bring up James Brooks.

Discounting the strike season in 1987 in 5 seasons from 1985 to 1990 he was over 1000 yards 3 times & over 900 yards the other 2.

His yards per carry for each season - 4.8 , 5.3, 5.1, 5.6, 5.1

Yes that OLine was great but that's Barry Sanders'esque YPC
