Jackson is a solid RB but he's not in LJ's league. Earl Campbell wasn't much of a receiver, either, but he was a dominant back - and LJ's in that mold. Obviously not at that level but held in relative regard.
41 receptions with a 10ypc average isn't bad for a guy who's absolutely dominant running the football. Jackson caught twice as many but had just one more touchdown and averaged a yard per catch less. That kind of difference in production isn't NEARLY enough to make up for the fact that LJ is a much better runner.
Jackson's blocking isn't great, either. I don't know why some people are on his nuts here like he's Walter Payton but the dude isn't much better than LJ at all.
