    Also, notice I didn't say Fournette should have won over Henry. I said McCaffrey.

    Head unit. That's it.

    Yeah, I do think that's more impressive. He scored 300 points for his team. Whereas the other guy rushed for 2000 yards, didnt produce any points....and missed games...........

    The first quote is why I compared Henry to Fournette.

    Golf events are incredibly fun, and even more so if you are a golfer. I have been to a few events, most notably The Masters in 2009 and it was absolutely incredible! My dream event is Waste Management Phoenix Open. If you get some time, youtube some videos of that tournament, specifically hole #16:thumbsup:

    they may not have given him the ball at the goal line because the other team stacked the box? you never know the scenario.

    Henry had 6 more TDs than Fournette, with 3 more games. That's 2TDs per game, which Fournette was averaging, and Fournette didn't miss games Henry just had more

    sorry agree to disagree, but as far as a player goes. yards > TDs. for the team? sure maybe not, but scenarios are always different. If I only give my RB the ball on our own 20 yard line and he busts a 75 yarder every time, but then I give my FB the ball at the 5 and he pops a TD each time...the RB is more impressive to me.

    no you compared Fournette and Henry in your first statement to the stats, with the statement that he had more yards/TDs than Fournette. I never said Fournette should've won, but you jumped right on comparing those two.

    Golf is fun to watch too. A couple years ago my best friend an I got in to the vip tent on the 18th. I was sitting next the cast of Hawaii 5.0 and had no idea who they were lol. I asked who they were and every thing. My friend was laughing cause I had no idea I was drinking with them. The chairman for Sony was in there too. He was nice also.

    I actually really enjoy watching golf on tv too, because so many play at once there is always something good on camera.

    Because the metric highlighted from your search was silly. YPG simply dont trump 2 or 3 other stats....and that stat specifically puts Fournette ahead of Henry.

    Plus, its a great nap game....until about 5 pm if it gets exciting.


    Also, golf is fun to watch when a player is shooting absolute darts. That's why Tiger was so fun to watch. Leaving 4 irons within a foot from 180+ yards out. Unreal.

    sorry it was the one the website automatically does, don't get your panties bunched up.

    I SPECIFICALLY said in a following comment that McCaffrey should've won, but you ignored it.

    yes but you can't provide any quality answer why Henry should've won over McCaffrey. you're just set on Fournette, because you know I'm right.

    The joker broke Barry Sanders all purpose yards record. The kid did EVERYTHING for Stanford.

    That’s not a metric that should be considered as what wins the award, and why the heisman is a joke.

    Defensive players can’t will a team to win, but there have been plenty of defensive studs over the years that can’t break into voting because of this trash data they use now.

    see below. also, the entire point of the conversation was that Alabama players only get recognized because their team wins and goes to the post season. you just agreed and proved that lol

    You want a legitimate reason?

    200 more yards, 20 more touchdowns, and more yards per game....

    Also, he broke Herschal Walker's record.

    So....

    I proved that a player should be awarded because he carried his team to the post season? Oh. Look at me. Pointing out the obvious.

    you're looking at rushing stats only. the reason I shared those was to prove that Henry didn't win the RB position, except in games played which equaled yards and TDs.

    go look at the rest of McCaffreys stats. quit being a homer.

    Bruh, the only thing better about Fournette was yards per game. Those extra, what, 5 yards per game didnt account for anything. No extra td's, nothing. They literally produced NOTHING but a stat. Henry won that position.

    McCaffrey may have had more catches, but he didnt have more rushing touchdowns (-20) or yards per carry.
