Riiiiight.

I'd like to see what they mean by "contact".

That works for about everything.

I mean that's what contact is. How else are you going to define it? It's not yards after broken tackle.

Wasn't questioning it. Just making a comment about how it covers contact in about every circumstance.

 

[ravidubey]

For example, I think this run is 7 yards after contact, while some statistician might think he was grazed near the LOS making the entire run count as yards after contact.

They are not making up some special rules for Randle all RB's are judged on the same criteria.

Booze has spoken: 1500 yards and 10 TD's.

Reverse psychology at its best.

Ergo that particular stat is and always has been bullshit.

0 yards after contact. :)

Except for that whole broken tackle at the beginning.

Not exactly a big knock against Randle that no one could fucking touch him. I feel like Murray gets run down from behind on that same play.

Randal is faster than a lot of people realize.

Yeah. I think we're kidding ourselves if we think we can somehow replicate offensive game plans based on Murray's production and running style. But defenses are going to have to honor the rushing attack, like Bryant and Williams will kill teams that leave them in single coverage, I think Randle will punish some defenses that sell out to stop the pass.
