I show:
Total yards of 3427, not 14,455
Total TD's of 17 not 37
Total points would then be 102 not 222
Link below to my data can you show me yours?

What is Hester’s total All Purpose Yards? It’s 14,455 not 3,427

Hester scored 37 career TD not 17

Rush TD - 1
Receiving TD - 16
Punt Return TD - 14
Kickoff Return TD - 5
Other TD - 1

37 touchdowns = 222 points my guy not 102

Here is a breakdown on Hester’s yards:
Rushing - 116
Receiving - 3,311
Punt Return - 3,695
Kickoff Return - 7,333

*Total Yards - 14,455

Lol .... Hester had 295 kickoff returns.   Back in the day, a player didn't even get hit on a kickoff return until he hit the 20-25 yard line.  Based on 295 returns x an automatic 20 yards, pretty much anyone that could run a straight line could get 5,900 yards (of his 7,333 yards) before event taking a hit.

Heck, if you want to factor in all purpose yards, then Freddie T (14,079) only has 914 more yards than MJD (13,165) so why isn't MJD being talked about in the same manner as Freddie T?  Because 90% of the return yards from a kickoff are a joke.
