Tatum Bell vs. Larry Johnson - Page 2

Taco John · 10-16-2005, 06:08 PM

Who's better?

B_Ambuehl · 10-16-2005, 06:45 PM

Tatum Bell = Warrick Dunn

Not identical but same type of back, same zone/crackback blocking scheme, same type of results.

Neither one of those backs would be as successful in other systems whereas someone like LJ probably wouldn't be as good in that particular system, but is better in all the other more traditional systems.

So much for this bullshit.

Taco Bell: 127 carries, 749 yards, 5.9 ypc 5 TDs.

Larry Johnson: 247 carries, 1,251 yards, 5.1 ypc, 14 TDs

I see people still fall for a good baiting, especially when TJ delivers it.

Exactly why Clinton Portis's YPC has dropped significantly since he left Denver. He doesnt have the same breakaway ability he did those 1st two seasons in Denver.

I noticed Bell got a couple of nice runs against us then got stuffed several times. How big is Bell?

It's not that he started getting stuffed, Shanny went back to Anderson since he is the Vet. Bell came out smoking you guys, then Shanny has a brain fart.

LJ is a work horse, bell is a great change of pace back. there really is no comparison.

listopencil · 12-13-2005, 11:14 PM

As of right now? LJ looks to me like a workhorse that runs with power plus a decent amount of speed. I'd take him over Bell.

Is that what he did when Clinton Portis was the young buck and Mike Anderson was the Vet?

I don't remember him pulling Portis (once he appeared to have the reigns) in favor of "the Vet" Anderson just because... but I'm sure I'm mistaken.

Sorry but for all the abuse he takes around here, he deserves the opposite when it is due. Only fair.

I know how he feels, believe me.
