And don't be ridiculous PACKmanN, how is it not even close??

Because Turner is beasting it with a rookie qb and the same o-line that was horrible a year ago, except for Baker. IMO, Turner opens up that offense for the passing game and allows Ryan to do what he does.

Jacobs, Turner, Barber

Jacobs > Turner > Barber.


Jacobs wears down defenses more than any other back in the league. The amount of energy a man has to use to take down a guy of his size is ridiculous. And the fact that the giants use him so much in the first 3 quarters and then Bradshaw and Ward start doing well is a testament that.

Yea but you can't say it isn't even close. Barber and Jacobs do things Turner can't even think about. I respect your opinion of Turner over them but you can't say it isn't close. That is disrespecting both Jacobs and Barber when Turner isn't THAT good, it is his first year.

You can't go wrong with any of them.

Barber is the most versatile, Turner is the best every down back, and Jacobs is the best power back. I think they're all on the same level.
