Quote:I disagree.   I saw them both, in the stadium, live, for almost every game they played.   Fred Taylor was incredible.   MJD was very very good, maybe great, but Fred Taylor was a solid notch above MJD.  

 

Bucs at Jags, 1998, Bucs in the lead, 2 minutes to go, Jags with the ball on their own 30 yard line, what's the correct play call?  

 

RUN THE BALL OFF TACKLE of course.

You're entitled to your opinion. I too have seen almost every game they've both played, and MJD is at least on par with Fred on the ground.

 

An argument could be made either way.

Quote:Thank you. That play was incredible, especially given the situation. I don't think another RB in the entire league is able to execute that play at that time, other than Fred. On the flip side, I don't think there was ever a moment you could say those same words about MoJo. He was very good, but simply wasn't on the level of a Fred Taylor. 

When you say that, I immediately think of this:

Like I said, you're entitled to your opinions, but as far as the position of running back goes, with all it entails, I'll take MJD who had a knack for landing in the endzone.
