Who would you rather have as your RB 1 and why?

Murray, it's not even close for me.


He has a nose for the end zone. He is on a better offensive team.

As a McCoy owner, definitely Murray. McCoy pissed in my Cheerios last season.

I'm taking Murray but to be fair the Bills wouldn't have cut Jackson if they felt McCoy wasn't healthy. Plus the Eagles have three backs to feed (Murray, Matthews, Sproles)

Rex Ryan hasn't had a top 15 RB in fantasy in the past four seasons. FWIW

Shady scored 20 total TDs in 2011. 7 more than Murray did last year behind a great OL on 393 carries and 450 total touches. Shady had 273 carries and 321 total touches that season.

Shady is also 5 months younger than Murray. Tell me you knew that?

Shady's highest carry total was the last 2 years under Chip - 314 carries each. Murray has zero chance of making it to 314 carries this season.

I have Shady in one league pre-injury.

Murray was on my do not draft list unless too cheap.

I understand they run a lot of plays. Scheme = Murray carries.

I answered why I think there is zero chance that Murray has 314 carries, not that Philly won't run a lot of plays.

Murray just barely.

in terms of actually being hit running the ball, McCoy


but actually factoring in Murray's catches, he's been hit more. Still, not much more.

just dont think Murray should be on alert for an injury, but not McCoy. Not only is McCoy already dinged, but he's had a ton of usage the last 2 years too.

I know Dallas worked Murray to the bone last year and he was on a contract year. He's had some serious injuries in the past with Dallas as well. All of that worries me about him. Plus, Chip loves him some Sproles. McCoy is THE guy in Buffalo. If I had to pick, it would be McCoy.

Some may disagree, but at the very least, it's closer than some on here think, IMO.
