Bush vs Peterson

AP also has the most Fumbles of any RB lol.

How about a straight up swap ... we get AP, they get RB!

It's about time that some else notices how great Reggie is.

Couple of surprising stats for y'all:

1. Bush leads the team in yards from scrimmage.
2. Peterson has fumbled the ball 15 times (9 lost) in 2.25 years.

Not saying reggie is better than purple jesus, but just sayin'

Great nickname

. You have to consider the 1,760 rushing yards Peterson had last year though. I left that out in my original post on purpose.

And Reggie is right behind him with the fumbles.

Again, I feel you. I just wanted to point out that AP does have one glaring weakness - those fumbles will kill any team and even if he had half that number, it would still be a concern - and Reggie's getting bashed for semi-good reason, but he's still producing at a high level.

Just a lot of hate these days for "the most productive player on our team." He's in year 4 of a 6 year deal, IIRC. We're not going to cut him, and I really question his trade value - we ain't getting our money back.

I realize he was the #2 overall pick and one of the greatest college RBs ever, I get that. But you have to let it go. He's not playing against the Pac 10 anymore.
