Maybe.
No, we do talk a lot.
Me and dad talk ball a lot, but I think if... And you and I talk balls, apparently.
Yeah, evidently.
No, I think Jameer Gibbs is now, because of their offensive line and some of the scheme turnover that they had to deal with this year, I think at times he hasn't been...
the player he could be in the perfect system.
But I think if you're looking at running backs in the NFL, if I'm preparing for an offensive player, a non-quarterback, he's as scary as anybody this year.
And, of course, the caveat is there's a year like the year where Jamar Chase half the time is not catching the football from Joe Burrow.
Justin Jefferson is catching the ball from number nine, now who's improving a lot.
But that's been hard to get on the same page.
So you think of some of the traditional best players
offensive football player Saquon Barkley is following up his awesome year with the year that predictably is not the same I mean like when you look at Saquon last year the offensive line he was running behind and then just the the law of averages since 2000 there's a threshold of a certain amount of carries and I don't have it offhand this is I did this before the season but if
there were a couple guys that crossed that threshold.
It was like Eddie George, DeMarco Murray.
Those guys were not able to get back anywhere near to where they were the year prior.
It's just kind of like a rule with running backs.
so I'm not saying like, you know, I think like best player in football is so hard to every year.
It's just so much context.
You got to take into account around every player.
So like, you know, it's this year it was Puka for a while.
