Zach Line one of 6 guys in the nation with 6+ yards per carry and at least 200 carries

because i think that's a lot more based on play calling and the rest of the team that ypc...
not saying you totally discount TDs, but would you rather have a guy who punches in a bunch of TDs from 1 yard out, or a guy who consistently gets yardage no matter where he is? Plenty of guys can get in from the 1...

6 games over 150 yards rushing (1-190, 2-225+) if you havent seen him play then you really have no idea what you are talking about. he definitely is not a "punch the ball in" type of running back.
only 6 of his TDs were from inside the 10 yardline... how about these numbers for "punches in a bunch of TDs from 1 yard out:
6
444
2
75
931
65
4411265
1022
37
151

all those long [deleted] runs and all those TDs and he still had only 38 yards more than Line and a lower avg per carry?
interesting.
And no, I havent seen him play. Just bored.

i'm just saying that comparing one guy's total yardage and yards per carry to another guy's makes a hell of a lot more sense than seeing who scored the most touchdowns.
not saying he specifically scored all his TDs on 1 yard runs.
the team has to get you in scoring position. therefore you aren't comparing apples to apples.
