So who's the #2 RB this year?

Don't understand all the love for Martin. Does everyone not realize that 1/3 of his points came in two games last year? Take those two amazing weeks out of the mix and he was decidedly average.

I think its just as much about opportunity. There's really no one else in TB to take the touches.

He averaged 12 points a game in the other 14 matchups.

So take away those two monster weeks, and he still averaged more points than all but 5 backs.

Not exactly average.

If you take away Charles exceptionally long runs, his numbers aren't as good either.

We could play this game all day. Bottom line is that Martin and Charles were good enough to have those types of games and long runs, so that capability along with every other variable puts them in the top 5. Martin was a horse last year, and will be again this year.
