He has 4 games left against the Bears, Rams, Texans and Packers. He needs to average 139 yds/game.


BTW, IMO if he goes for 2000 yars he is the GOAT!

I say that based on his only competition, Barry and Jim Brown never having to come back from an ACL and MCL injury. That and the fact that I think he was top 3 even before coming back from this injury.

This season proves he's a top 10 back of all time IMO.

Just remarkable....

No one makes me prouder to be a Sooner. :to:

If theyre out of the playoff picture I wouldnt risk it.

btw Ponder is fukkin garbage. The pick he threw yesterday would make Sanchez blush.

:whoa: I understand this is a little hyperbole but sheesh. I would agree with top 10 tho.

I still feel this was his greatest college performance.

Never heard so many loud ass collisions from one player in a game in my life...

No hyperbole and I stated why I think that right under that sentence. He's doing this after coming back EARLY from an ACL and MCL surgery.

My fantasy team would sure like to see that shyt as the playoffs approach. :scheme: If this nikkas comes out and rushes for 2000 or even close to it within a year of tearing his knee up. :myman::win::krs::wow::ooh::gladbron::ohhh:. I mean what he's done so far has been nothing short of remarkable but to throw 2000 on top of it. I would go so far as to say that would be the greatest individual achievement in the history of team sports. All you gotta do is look at all the other seasons in the running and then stop and realize that non of those guys were coming of a knee surgery within the SAME fukkIN YEAR. :whew: Too bad it's being wasted in Minny. :scusthov:

He's already doing things we've never seen before.

If he gets 2000 off of an ACL, that to me soldifies his place in history as a legendary once in a generation player.

The only RBs in his class are O.J. Simpson, Jim Brown and Barry Sanders.

He really is. Besides All Day and Harvin who's injured, vikings probably have the worst O in the L.

we're faulting Barry and Jim for never having serious injuries?
