Really?!?!?

There were only 4 games last year where Fournette had a 50+ yarder, and he had 300 carries.

By your math, he should've had 30 (!) runs of 50+ last year.

I love Fournette too, but damn, there's no earthly possibility of him ripping off a 50 yarder every 10 carries. That's just flat out absurd.




look at it like this, last year he averaged 25 carries a game. Take same carries and lets say he averages 5.0 ypc for 22 carries and 3 carries of at least 25 yards average. Fairly reasonable, that alone puts him at 7.4.

He's an amazing back, but I wouldn't call this expectation "reasonable".
