Re: Worst RBs/WRs with a 1000 yard season?
Though he had two 1000 yard receiving seasons, Michael Crabtree was a major disappointment for his career, especially in SF ... He could have caught the winning TD pass in the SB against the Ravens but couldn't fight through his defender, trying to complain for the call. Stats werent bad, yet he needed another receiver opposite him to be effective. In fairness, getting hurt in 2013, set his career back ...

So? How many were short yardage plunges or easy walk ins?CSKreager wrote: ↑Fri Apr 12, 2024 3:54 pmKarim led the NFL in rushing TD’s in 1997Elkman8102 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 03, 2024 12:03 am 2 more that came to mind:

He was not a good running back. Poor YPC. Not very elusive or explosive

Of the 33 rushing touchdowns Abdul-Jabbar scored, 21 were from 3 yards or less, plus another 7 touchdowns from 4 or 5 yards.sheajets wrote: ↑Tue Apr 16, 2024 1:21 amSo?

Actually CS ... Jamaal Charles and Mercury Morris had high yards per carry, over 5.0 but low TD numbers. Morris should have had a much better career but got his hand caught in the cookie jar.

One that came to mind was Tony Dorsett. He definitely had fewer than most would expect. Had a lot of years of around 4-5-6 rushing scores. Never a big compiler of as they spread the wealth around Newhouse, Springs, Laidlaw. His best season (1981) he scored just four. Joe Cribbs after his rookie season is another
Definitely Greg Pruitt. Outstanding YPC but never a lot of touchdowns
