PFF rates the most elusive backs in the NFL the past 3 seasons and we have 2 of the top 10 with Johnathan Stewart being #1 and Deangelo Williams at #9. Mike Tolbert also made the list at #15. The NFC South has a strong showing overall with Michael Turner at #3, Pierre Thomas at #7, and Jason Snelling at #8.

Note that elusive in their view means forcing missed tackles and getting extra yards.

Is their really a guy watching every game and every snap a player makes to see how many tackles he misses? if so i want to meet that guy and shake his hand for having the most boring job in the world.

ya I dont know if Id call it elusive but it is most certainly syntactically correct right? I would say he is the hardest to tackle, and if you combine that with no fumbles and good blocking, Im pretty sure you could make a case for best RB in the league.

PFF also ranks him as one of the worst blocking RB's in the league....so there's that

      Tua has maybe 2 passes further than 5 yards.

      Bryce Young what a crazy statement

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      I'd give the rookie WR's more credit than that. Bryce did actually earn most his yards against the Chiefs, but that Saints game was all rookie WR's yac. It was probably like 80ish of the 170 total passing yards were yac by JT and Coker. The throws have been accurate though and he's obviously playing with more confidence. I still want to see something over 40 yards in the air at some point that looks good/accurate

      We’ll agree to disagree.  Maybe change my wording to better roster would have been more accurate. Gamecocks have some nice defensive players….but they are also thinner than Clemson all around.  it’s at Clemson.  Dabo.  Better overall roster.  And they are favored slightly….which essentially supports my prior post that either could win but if you had to pick without a dog in the race Clemson is the smarter pick.   straight up vs Carolina? I trust Clemson’s O more than Carolina’s.    Top 10 vs top 60 with the QB edge.  And Clemson’s D has some real studs on it too.   Which is what Vegas says.   I’ll make my pick game day.  Will depend on who can and can’t suit up for Clemson.  Carolina has been much healthier this year.  But ST could be the difference.  That Louisville game exposed some massive flaws in their kick game.  You don’t really want ST weakness showing itself vs Beamer
