Not really. Short of the Denver game where he ran for 225 on 29 carries and the Bengals game where he cleared 131 on 29, he was remarkable pedestrian the rest of the year. In the first Tenn game, he was sitting at negative yardage until he ripped that giant run off towards the end of the game and ended with a 15/66 state line. Other games:

Houston: 15/47/3.1
Tenn: 15/66/4.4
Saints: 20/72/3.6
Houston: 11/40/3.6
Colts: 8/23/2.9
Bucs: 14/38/2.7
Bolts: 15/50/3.3
Raiders: 15/50/2.8

That's a half season of games where he's pulling a 3.41 YPC. On first down, we're automatically in 2nd and 6 or 7, vice 2nd and short. He added some value at receiving, but PFF gave him a pass blocking grade of 35.7 and he had 140 snaps in pass pro...in THREE YEARS. Last year he had 264 carries, and out of those only 13 went for 15+ yards.

Fournette MIGHT have been top 5 for best offensive players, but that is just out of how bad this offense is.

So you're saying not counting his best plays, he really didn't really play that well? That's not fair unless you do it for anyone you're comparing him with. Remember, we're not saying he was the best offensive player in the league, we're talking just about the team.

I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.
