Deuce is still the best RB on our team. Give him a line that can punish Dlines and he would have been extremely effective this year. DBs and LBS are still afraid to tackle Deuce.

Pierre has more yards and more TDs with less carries and averages a whole yard per carry more tha Deuce.

Deuce is not better.


You dont think Pierre Thomas would be better with a "punishing" offensive line?

Obviously, but Deuce's power style is different than Pierre Thomas'. Just because Pierre runs harder than Reggie doesn't mean he is a power runner. If Deuce had some holes to run through, he would still be hurting DB's and LB's and his YPC would improve dramatically.
