Charles vs. Priest
Been wondering who CP thinks is the better back
Jamaal Charles 1401 rushes, 7556 yards, 44 tds, 5.4 ypc Priest Holmes 1780 rushes, 8172 yards, 86 tds, 4.6 ypc My choice is JC. If you put Jamaal with the offense that Priest had he would probably have broken several records and would be a HoFer. That's not saying I don't love Priest, but Jamaal was out of this world. |

I've said it before and took massive heat for it, but if you put JC on that O, it is disgusting.

JC does some very bad things behind that line. Priest was good, but JC had to do with it shitty QBs and poor o-line play.

Jamaal. Priest was great, but he was also running behind the best OL guys the Chiefs ever had. Jamaal was running behind dogshit most of the time.

Jamaal put up great numbers behind a below average OL.

Jamaal would bounce that outside, had a sandwich and walked into the end zone. That was fun, but just because Jamaal didn’t do that doesn’t mean that play isn’t 6. Prime Jamaal never got caught on the outside. |

If for no other reason, look at LJ before he got hurt who wrecked oussies behind that line but didn’t do ****all behind Herms line then he gets hurt and Jamaal lights the ****ing world on fire.

Strictly running, Charles was better. Priest was much more of a weapon as a receiver, but he had a more competent QB. Also Charles seemed to fumble quite a bit more. It's a tough call. Although in a two year stretch, LJ may be better than both

Charles' best year was under Reid while he was catching passes. LJ was close, but JC wouldn't need to hit anyone. They wouldn't be close enough to hit. |

308 receptions, 2586 yards, 20 tds, 8.4 ypc Priest receiving stats 339 receptions, 2962 yards, 8 tds, 8.7 ypc I'd say Jamaal was the better receiver if you account for who was throwing them the ball. I'd say LJ had one single season that was elite. It was his 2005 season where he started only 9 games and had 1750 yards and 20 tds and averaged 5.2 ypc. You could say it was one of the top 10 best seasons for a running back in the history of the league. But what's crazy is that 2005 LJ season wasn't even the best season a Chiefs RB has had. Priest in 2002 only played in 14 games and in those 14 games he had 1615 rush yards, 21 tds, 5.2 ypc and on top of that he had 62 rec, 614 rcv yds, 9.9 ypc and 3 tds. So essentially in 2002 Priest gave you the production of an elite RB and a 2 receiver. Then we get to Jamaal who had 6.4 ypc and he ran the ball 230 times that year. It's just amazing the talent we have had at the RB position. I remember back in day when you'd constantly have to hear about the stupid ass Donkey's, there dumbass blocking scheme and how they have had so many years of a 1000 yd rusher, so basically 60 yds a game, BFD. The Chiefs have had elite RBs since 2001. I can't remember the last time I was worried about our RB situation. |

Charles was the best we ever had but you always held your breath he was going to fumble.
