Meaning, which running back who is on the cusp of being done will have the worst season and be the biggest dissappointment?
Canidates are : Jamal Lewis of Cleveland, Ahman Green of Houston, Travis Henry of Denver, Dominic Rhodes of Oakland, Thomas Jones of NYJ or pick your own bust.
I think Henry and Rhodes are back ups who won't matter much, while Jones should do OK assuming he stays healthy. Green will share carries.
So, I'm picking Jamal Lewis. 3 yards and a cloud of dust at this stage of his career.

Besides Ricky Williams who is coming back, I have to go with Jamal Lewis.

Jamal Lewis will most likely be sharing carries in Cleveland. He will do decently.
Travis Henry is going to Denver where my grandma once rushed for 1000 yds. He is a pretty solid running back and i predict 1300 to 1500 rushing yds.
Thomas Jones has been horribly underrated and will do pretty well behind a good offensive line for the Jets. I think it was a mistake for the Bears to get rid of him.
Ahman Green and Dominic Rhodes are my top two candidates to have the worst seasons. Green has struggled with injuries and is going to be running behind a bad offensive line. I don't think he will be able to stay healthy with the pounding he'll take. Rhodes is a great running back but will also be the victim of a terrible offensive line. He is very durable and will probably last the whole season but will not have good production merely because he will not have any running lanes to run through.

Jacob Brandon...lol
I would also pick Jamal Lewis as did the question asker. He is going to a team with a worse o-line then the Ravens had when he only ran like 3-4 yds a carry. Now he is a year older and there is a very little chance that he will have a solid season.
I dont think he comes close to 700 yeads, I think the Browns select Peterson in the draft and he begins to start like week 7, which throws Lewis to backup. Jamal Lewis will be a BUST

I see the Browns picking Adrian Peterson so that will give Jamal Lewis alot of relief. I look for him to have the same numbers as Corey Dillion with the Pats last season. The person i can see running out of gas and not performing is Ahman Green. He doesnt have much of a line and I feel that he wont be able to handle the load that they will expect out of him.

I have to say the Ahman Green will have the worst states of all the players listed. In Houston he will be sharing time and the biggest reason being that Houston's Offensive line is terrible.

obviously Jamal Lewis b/c he will be in Cleveland which doesn't have a better run blocking team than the ravens and he is not anymore the same running back that he use to be when he just run over defenders and average 4.5 yards a carry its more like 3 for him

Jamal Lewis, hes getting to the end of his years and has alot of moral and ego issues. He isn't really that good anymore he's overated.

Ahman Green is clearly on the downside like Brett Favre...love em both, but the time has just about come...

I say Jacob Brandon of the Giants.
Now that Tiki is leaving, he will have to step up, but I don't think he has enough expereince to do that
