It's tough to say how much is him and how much can be attributed to other factors.
He shares a back field with a top 8 QB. He's got a top 3 WR on one side with one of the most explosive #2 WRs in the league on the other side. Jason Witten is the TE version of Old Faithful and that offensive line is like all 1st and 2nd rounders playing up to their full potential. Not to mention the coaching staff finally recognizes the importance of the run game and have been feeding that mother****er carries all season long. He has 77 more carries than the next guy..
Still, I argued that Murray was a top 5 back last season when he was criminally underused. He's big, he's fast, he's strong. It's obvious that he's very good.
