Nope...I clearly have said it's about your absurd statements listed

"The position is not as dangerous as others because you rarely get hit by a guy running full speed and you almost always see it coming"

"Big hits on backs are few are far between"

"RB position is not as dangerous as playing WR for example"

The above are foolish statements....plain and simple
Yet backs dobt fet injured at the same rate as other skill positions. Mist just be luck I guess

Sure and that's the only reason they really get injured ever. Accumulation . You see very few big hits on backs it's also the reason most teams use 2 backs

Dude

No

Yes. Its strange you guys are so opposed to this fact when there's plenty of data to support it. But anyway if you aren't willing to admit facts theres no point in discussing it. Backs touch the ball far more yet must way less time on average. That's not up for debate. Its provable fact

It’s a provable fact? OK, then prove it. You won’t be able to.

I already posted it earlier in the thread
Nope. You made some statements, claimed them as facts. Something you do a lot. Common knowledge is that RBs have short careers vs say WRs. Show us some reliable sources that show this isn’t so. You can’t do it because your wrong.

What does career length have to do with injury? Backs careered are short because they're w dime a sozrb and instead of paying a guy on his second contract you can replace him with a guy of equal talent for less money on the second or third day of the draft

It's common sense . We are in a threat debating why the "best" running back in football cant get an extension and even the guys who do get second contracts usually get them early with most of the guaranteed money up front

Nope. Even backs that split time get about 150 more touches than elite receivers yet receivers miss more time due to injury than backs do ( on average ). What you're claiming is guys who get 2.5-5 time as many touches yet still get injured less play a more dangerous position its preposterous .

Backs careers are short because backs are all pretty interchangeable . Even the best ones are only marginally better than the middle of the road guys. It's always been that way there are very few exceptions and Leveon Bell ain't one of them ( see Deangelo Williams)

What are you talking about? He was offered a extension and turned it down.:doh:
You really twist facts to suit your personal opinion.

"Data"
"Facts"

You've given none.

All you have to do is look at games missed due to injury. Not tough to do the math.
