Not sure about this analysis, as it could be skewed by a game where the RB gets only a few carries but busts a long one.

In other words, do the same calculation but include Bryce Love and he might have the most impressive stats.

I would hesitantly say that "EYPG" might be a better metric?

In fact that happened, Cook had a game with two carries for 84 yards. Removing that game took down his yardage by a lot, from 4.1 to 3.7, but that's basically the craziest outlier game you can have and it didn't affect things that much, and that was the only game by any back with fewer than 12 carries, so I don't think that's a big issue. Anyway here's that number:

Code:

Name        EYPG
Cook        80.9
Elliot      50.2
Fournette   61.5
Henry       51.0
McCaffrey   33.5

That looks pretty much the same, though it does make Fournette look better.
