And according to the links I have found, Ronnie counts over 9 million to the cap.

Ronnies amazing year last year was 119 carries in 7 games.  He isn't a workhorse back worthy of the money that he is getting paid.

Over his last 3 seasons Ricky Williams has only averaged 112 carries a season.   

In the 26 games he played he's only averaged 12 carries a game.  Apparently he's not a workhorse either.

True, that is why he is only making 800,000.

Ronnie Brown is going to make over $40,000 a carry this year.

He's making $800k because people aren't sure if he can stay off the icky sticky.

He'll be making a lot more than that next year.

Also Ricky has only lost 1 fumble this year, so he is still a better RB than ronnie.

  Ummmm....  you do realize that Ronnie has only lost 1 fumble this year as well?  Please, go back to your pineapple under the sea until you can get your facts straight.

Ricky has fumbled 3 times despite getting significantly fewer carries than Ronnie, who has only fumbled once.

Which team RECOVERS a fumble is basically random, so it shouldn't be held against a player that his fumble was "lost" )nor should it somehow count "for" the player, that a fumble was not "lost"). The fumbling itself is what should be held against a player.

(Which is also why I consider Ginn's fumbling, even though mostly out of bounds, a problem. Hold on to the damned ball!)

Ahem..Officially Ricky has fumbled 4 times ony Lost 1 fumble...Ronnie Fumbled once and lost 1.....

I haven't read the majority of posts on here but I believe Ronnie is 240 out from 1,000 rushing so that has to boost his stock somewhat if he gets it.

1000 yards rushing is nothing special in today's game.

[Sunstroke]

Tepop is going to eclipse the 1,000 yard mark this season as well...

1000 yards rushing is nothing special in today's game.

True.  But it's the standard I still use.  How does the number of 1,000 yard rushers today compare with the 90s since so many teams now use two decent backs?

In 1990 there were 8 1000 yard rushers, with barry sanders leading with 1304.  With 3 games to go, there are 9 1000 yard rushers this year, and 2 more within 22 yards of 1000, with Adrian Peterson leading with 1416.

[NADS]

I'd say that's probably pretty consistent throughout the 90s.  Thanks Tepop.
