Well, I mean, he mostly DID get killed.
Sure, he kept getting yards, but for the last 5 seasons of his career the guy was sporting a 3.4 YPC average. He was mostly an ineffective player who Fisher just kept giving the football.
By 27 years old he was mostly cooked - Fisher just didn't seem to notice. From 2000 to 2004 there were 41 guys who carried the ball more than 500 times over that span. Eddie George ranked 41st in YPC.
Ron Dayne, Amos Zereoue and Troy Hambrick were more effective runners over that timespan than Eddie. Poor dude was ground into a fine powder.
