C.J. Spiller Continuing Historic Pace |
From Buffalo Rumbling:
Spiller's big Week 1 has propelled him into the stratosphere in yards per rushing attempt. He finished the game against the New York Jets with over 12 yards per carry and has maintained a blistering 7.55 yards per attempt throughout the season on 60 carries. Only two running backs in NFL history have had more than 60 attempts and maintained a per-rush average better than 7.6 - and the last one was during the first Eisenhower administration.
