Colorado now the best RB state?!

[Jaximus]

The state of Colorado has produced the #1 RB in the NFL with Christian McCaffrey but also produced solid RBs with Phillip Lindsay and Austin Ekeler. Kalen Ballage is also in the NFL. Max Borghi is leading the Pac12 in rushing.

 

[Darth Snow]

No.

How many states have a better top 3 than McCaffrey, Lindsay and Ekeler?

 

[Buffalo Brad]

You are kidding Clark, right?

How many states have a better top 3 than McCaffrey, Lindsay and Ekeler?

Florida: Dalvin Cook, Derrick Henry, Sony Michel

Florida: Dalvin Cook, Derrick Henry, Sony Michel

Don't even want to think about comparing the next three from each state much less the next ten.

Colorado doing well though on a per capita basis.

Based on ESPN Fantasy Football Scoring...

McCaffrey is #1, Ekeler is #4 and Lindsay is #14.

Cook is #2, Henry is #9, Michel is #24.

So it's close, but believe it or not Colorado is better.

Fantasy football scoring?

AKA a point system that tells us which RBs are putting up the most stats for the year.

Is this the part where we argue about which state has the best RB trio of picking up the blitzing LB? I can't find that stat in my fantasy league.

PPR scoring over values medicore RBs.

Holy ****... Just thought it was cool that 3 of the best RBs in the NFL came from Colorado.

Didn't think I would get ridiculed for sharing a positive point about Colorado athletes.

This is a sad place to hang out and talk football. Y'all take care

 

[Not Sure]

The thing that annoys me is that of those three, only one went to CU.

I still feel the same about PPR scoring.

I still feel the same about PPR scoring.

Or maybe RBs who aren’t involved in the passing game are really the mediocre ones?

It can go both ways, those guys who are involved in the passing game as receivers usually can't carry a full load running and aren't called on to block a lot. The top backs are the CMCs doing it all.
