10 carries, 5 yards.

I’m pretty sure I could net more on 10 carries. But I would settle for 5 yards.

This reminds me of Hokie’s (RIP) wonderful sense of humor and self-deprecation.

Someone asked him about his NFL career as a running back.

He said (something to this effect): “I was a short yardage specialist. When we needed to get one yard, I could get one yard. When we needed to get two yards, I could get one yard. That’s why my NFL career wasn’t long.”

The real reason was injuries. Hokie was mofo on a football field before his knee(s?) got damaged.

If it’s 10 straight runs, defense will pin their ears back.

If it’s 10 runs in the flow of a normal game, and you’re asking me to pass block and do other shite…that’s a non starter also.

Gimme the 500k after taxes

Can I do 10 QB sneaks behind an All Pro Center?


After the first few sneaks they're going to line up in a goalline D with two noseguards cramming the box.

You're best chance is to have a "Bama ref" spot the ball based on... *checks chain marker*...."forward progress".

If I can pick the early 2000s Chiefs offensive line, I am 10000000% choosing option B

I would probably fumble the first handoff. And probably tear my ACL.

A.


I’m not gaining 5 yards on anybody.

I’m old and slow.
I’d die if they hit me bc I’m on blood thinner.

So I just have to receive a handoff and dive for .5yds every time? I’ll take that bet


Do you even math bro?

Something tells me you missed the period before the 5.

But this is the key here I think:
quote:

If I get tackled behind the line does it subtract from what I’ve gained

If lost yardage counts against you, then give me the million. If you just literally have to gain 5 yards in 10 plays, then I'll take my chances. Especially if the defense doesn't know you're running run plays. Like someone said, you can run dives or QB sneak type plays and get half a yard or more.

And the premise is "in an NFL game." So it's not like it's just ten plays where both sides knows you're running the ball.

It would be hard and I would get destroyed, but I also think it would be kinda fun.

Can I take option B and name Derrick Henry as my proxy to carry the ball?

B

I think I could tush push for 5 yards in 10 carries.

Then again I might be a paraplegic after so maybe A is the better choice.
