Damien Williams and Darrell Williams combined for 155 total yards and 3 TD's.

They were RB's 3 and 4.

Detrez Newsome and Justin Jackson combined for 138 total yards and 2 TD's

They were RB'3 3 and 4 as well

Discuss.

Add Barkley to either side and that team wins it before the last play.:nod:

I take it you think Barkley has 200 or 250 total yards for the Chiefs or Chargers last night?

at the very least, he wouldn't have lost 3 yards on a first down run with 4 minutes left and the offense only needing to eat up a little clock ....

Barkley affects the game in a manner to increase the likelihood of winning over the other RBs in that game.

Seriously, leave it to you to be all mouthy about RBs not mattering, but really having no grasp for the situation. You tried to make your point by putting equivalently irrelevant RBs against each other. :L
Think about that.

Does anyone recall (I must have remembered other, better things instead) were episodes 1 and 2 this big of a fail?

:dhd:

Think about that.
If irrelevant RB's total 155 and 138 yards and multiple TD's each, did they matter, or were they all disposable, like NPCs.

Keep it up. What's really so hilarious about this particular episode is that you don't understand that irrelevant RBs don't matter because they're not the RBs that do matter.
Barkley wins it earlier.
Nobody's don't.
Think logically.

There was no garbage time in this game. And RB's can't cause themselves to matter or don't matter, that's not how things work; things don't cause themselves.

Now you're confusing yourself.

I'll simplify this for you.

Barkley > D. Williams
Barkley > J. Jackson

You'll never convince Moose of anything if it requires logic. Despite the fact that Barkley is averaging 5.6 yard per carry this year(on a garbage NYG team mind you) and the closest a Chiefs player can get is 4.8 means they are the exact same player and the only stats that matter are the final box score and not what each player does play to play.

8>5.6

7>5.6

Pass more, run less.


DVOA

Barkley: 7.6%


Ware: 50.4%
Damien Williams: 23.9%

You know RBsMatter people are shook when they have to defend themselves from RB3 and RB4s showing them up.

I think it helps quite a bit that Mahomes is a threat to complete almost any type of pass and also to run well when he needs to. The way defenses play him probably opens up some run lanes.
