no that's not what you said...you said "barry sanders did it his entire career" in response to a rb having to take on the entire front 7 all by himself...you do realize that running against 7 or 8 in the box, which is what you said now, isn't the same thing as taking on the entire front 7 by yourself, which is what was said earlier?
And the lions ran the run and shoot, defenses couldn't stack the los...they had to respect the passing offense.[/quot

How about 13 carries for -1 yard against GB?
Let me be clearerererrereree. I never mention anything about Barry Sanders yardage. When you played Detroit you stop Barry Sanders. No one cared who the other skilled positions were or what system they ran on offense. Besides that David Sloan was the TE in Detroit from 95 til 98 when I think Sanders retired. If my memory servers me correct the Run and shoot does not use a TE. Tommy Vardell started at FB for the Lions Sanders last year in the league. If my memory servers me correct the Run and Shoot does not use a FB. 1 against 11 stop Barry beat the Lions. 13 carries for -1 yard only helps make my point stop Sanders beat the Lions.
