The Race For 2,000

[Iggloo]

It looks like Derrick Henry and Saquon Barkley both have a chance to rush for 2,000 yards this season.

Henry is currently at 1,120 yards with a bye still to go, but is on pace to have a shot at this.

Barkley is currently at 925 with his bye behind him, more of a longshot, but not out of the realm of possibility at all, especially if he goes off against Dallas.

Can either of these guys break 2,000 this season?

I think Henry has the better chance but Philly has started becoming more of a rushing team in recent weeks as they develop a new identity with Saquon so you never know.

Agree Henry has the advantage

I hope Henry gets it. Wouldn't he be the first RB to have a 2000 yard season with two different teams?

Yea he would, Eric Dickerson came within about 300 yards of doing 2000 with 2 teams.

We'll see. Looking like he will.

With 17 games now that number won't be as rare

Barkley is unlikely to do it, he would need to really go off on a few teams to catch up. He only had like 69 yards yesterday and got pulled in the 4th when Philly got out to a huge lead.
