    People are ranking AP too high. Dude's a fumbling machine, and that's a major problem. During the championship game people were sayin to take him out and put in Taylor...you don't do that with a top RB.

    Can't believe ? ranking/forgetting about MJD. He's probably the 3rd best rusher after Johnson and Jackson. Turner is so slept on too, but with all his injuries, worried about his staying power.
    1) CJ2K (C'Mon Son)
    2) Stephen Jackson
    3) M-J-D
    4) Michael Turner (yds per carry ration was sick)
    5) ? , Frank Gore, AP, Ronnie Brown, Ricky Williams, DeAngelo Williams, couple of folks mayne

    Thank you, AP is not even in my top 5 after that ? he pulled against the Saints. He is now labled as a fumbler. Anytime he plays now everyone will be going for the ball because the word is out. My top 5 right now:

    1.Chris Johnson
    2.Jones-Drew
    3.Steven Jackson
    4.Ray Rice
    5. Thomas Jones

    Chris Johnson is the top dog until AD learns how to hold on to the football.

    1)Chris Johnson
    2)Adrian Peterson(His style of running the ball reminds me of Eddie Goerge a little. I think he will be done around 30)
    3)Stephen Jackson

    Yea I think he missed it by about 100 yards, but for him to miss four games and not get the ball in like 2 others he did ok.

    LOL at you still sleeping on Thomas Jones. He's getting old but he needs to be recognized as a great back. And he doesn't cough up the ball when someone puts a hat on him like AP does. In my eyes until AP solves his fumbling problem he is a liabiliy to his team.

    I'm not knocking Jones. He's done good considering his age, but I just dont see him as a top back

    AP is overrated. Not only does he fumble, but he runs way too high. That makes it so easy for defenders to tackle him right at the line of scrimmage. He not making people miss right at the line of scrimmage like his first 2 years. I tink defenses have picked up on his tendecies. For him to break a run he needs a huge hole and his take to the house speed is sort of overrated. He doesnt have that natural speed like Chris Johnson or MJD

    I think that AP is better at some things than any other back in the league, such as breaking tackles. However, I do think he is overrated now. He's a fumble machine as people are saying, but on top of that, he's not even all that consistent. Chris Johnson was pretty much a beast all season. AP didn't really show up the last four or five games of the season.
