D-Will vs. Maurice Jones Drew

[[email protected]]

So my brother is a jaguars fan for some unbenounced reason, and he constantly brings up the argument that Maurice Jones Drew is a better back then D-Will. Now, ill give Jones Drew props. The kid is a good back. But he is imo, nowhere near the calibur of back that D-Will is.

So I bring the debate here because he insists that there are people out there besides jacksonville homers, that will agree with him.

Let the roasting begin!

[Carolina Crazy V2]

How many touchdowns did Deangelo have compared to Jones-Drew?

How many yards did Deangelo have compared to Jones-Drew?

What was Deangelo's YPC compared to Jones-Drew's?

How many 20 and 40 yd. runs did Deangelo have compared to Jones-Drew?

How many wins did Deangelo's team have compared to Jones-Drew's team?

I think I've made my point.

Oh but he will contend that this is only because we play in the "soft" NFC....

the NFC is the toughest division in the NFL

MJD has yet to rush for over a 1000 yards in a season, but has proven to be a better receiver and return man than DW.

i wouldnt say he is nowhere near deangelo...both are very very good,,,,of course you know im gonna give our guy the edge....for his big play ability

[Doc Holiday]

I'm sorry, I love DW but saying they aren't close is a joke, and trying to compare what each other did last season is a even bigger one, the Jags last season had just about everything that could go wrong go wrong even before the season started. they're o-line was in shambles when compared to ours it's almost laughable.

Jones-Drew IMO has the total package, he may not have the explosive ability DW does but he has more power certainly.

I think they are both about just as good but for very different reasons

i know Jones Drew can Block Peppers like a 300lb OL

DWill is better than JD...

and he will prove it (again) this season.

JD fell off the face of the earth last season(compared to the previous season), DW took over the league for RB's..

[Brooklyn Bully]

Let's ask this question on a Jags board so we can get completely opposite replies. I think this season will be a good indicator now that Fred Taylor is gone and D-Lo will be expected to kick ass from Game 1.

[SteveSmithStinks01]

Next season will prove who is the better RB...both have 3 years in the league. Dwill- 2700yds 5.1ypc 23TDs 600 yards receiving 18 games started.

MJD- 2500 4.8ypc 34TDs 1400 yards receiving 4 games started.

Only a COMPLETE homer could distinguish the better back...as far as im concerned this season should prove it.

jONES drew 2 years starting

Williams = 1

Big difference

[Jangler]

MJD is better at having 3 names.

Agree with Doc also.

Anyone who has really watched MJD play has to admire his ability.
