Which RB would you build your team around? LT or LJ?

Question

LJ has more sheer power and size, better at shaking off tackles and running through crowds, can usually get more yards per carry.

LT has more speed and elusiveness, better at making people miss.

I'd take LJ, he has a lot less miles on his legs and barring injury has 3-4 more years of massive production after this year.

He has those TDs because they get down the field through the pass, and he scores, LJ could do the same, and obviosly gets more yards than LT, so he creates his own scoring opportunities, 12 TDs.

No, I don't think lj has ever been hurt, unless you call a sprained neck an injury?

I think you are mistaken, LJs line this year is one of the middle to worst in the leauge. They have been playing with backups all year. LTs line is better, and LJ smokes him in production. TDs don't count for much when you pass all the way down the field.

Answer 1

LJ, he is consistent, fast, patient, powerful...and one hell of a workhorse....not as flashy as Tomlinson (sorry, the initials LT goes to Lawrence Taylor)...but gets the job done.

Answer 2

L.T. without a doubt. You'd have to be crazy to pick LJ over L.T. L.J. even with his great O-line blocking for him doesn't have the production that L.T. has. No one is close to as versatile as L.T. And based on running styles, L.J's production will fall off long before L.T.'s does. The ONLY reason L.J. has more yards this year is the fact that he's had 72 more attemts than L.T.

LJ: 282 attempts 1202 yards 13 TDs 4.3 ypc
LT. 210 attempts 1036 yards 19 TDs 4.9 ypc <----and he's never had a good O-line to run behind. You should really think about checking your stats before you start rambling on about LJ. And how can you say he runs with more power than L.T.? Have you tried to tackle him? The fact is L.J. is 6-1 230, L.T. is 5-10 221, if either of them has more power it's L.T. because he has a lower center of gravity. The only people who would pick L.J. are KC fans, which is fine, stand by your team, just don't try to back it up with false statements.

Answer 3

I say LT is the RB in the league but the Chargers are going to wear out LT in a couple of years and LJ is his second season as a starter

Answer 4

lt, lj has an injury in his past so is more likely to be injured in the future

lt can throw some touchdowns too

also consider that lj has ran behind some future hof lineman, lt has not, never underestimate the importance of the line

Answer 5

LT come on he gets 3 or 4 touchdowns a game

Answer 6

Out of those, Steven Jackson. no longer as flashy as LT, yet he's youthful, and extremely almost as stable. If i ought to %. genuinely all and sundry, nonetheless, i could take Reggie Bush to construct a team around. He can stretch out a protection adequate to advance the play of the WRs and QB, too, and sounds like he could have the biggest impression over the long-term.

Answer 7

Ladanion...think about it, he is the main guy who makes the momentum for a comeback. LJ ain't half bad, but Trent Green and Tony Gonzales take the main spotlight for the Chiefs.

Answer 8

LJ did u see him agasint denver 156 yards and a touchdown domatied the whole game

Answer 9

LT, he is the best RB in the NFL. CHeck the stats how many TD's for LT.... IM NOT JUST SAYING THAT CUZ IM A SD FAN

Answer 10

LT may have his speed going for him but he is young and not as experienced as LJ. LJ has the experience.

Experience...I'll take LJ
