If I were picking who I would rather have on my team, I would take Gordon

at least as far as skill/talent go. He is the better back.

Interesting: Martin 5.6 and Ropati 5.5 average more YPC than Skattebo 5.4.

He's good, but I don't understand why people gush over him

They run the ball 61% of the time and he gets the bulk of those carries, so at

Giddens, Neal, and RJ Harvey are averaging better than he is

Gordon has been bad this year. This year Skattebo is better

Gordon hasn’t been very good

I think you’re giving Gordon too much credit.

Skatteboo is making the difference in winning games.

He’s better than good. Dude has phenomenal balance - just bounces off of first

He's runs hard and powers through tackles.

Yards from scrimmage = rushing and receiving.

They are both YAC backs. I think we have more trouble with those than speedies

The difference is that Skattebo gets those numbers even when the opposing team

Question is do they use him in the red zone? We seem to go away from Martin.

key is also availability. he's been healthy, ours have not. also divided carries

I would trade every RB we have for Sakattebo... he reminds me a lot of Tyler Allgeier. Solid RB, punishing runner

Our defenders will need to be very physical to keep from getting tossed around

Skattebo is a Swedish surname. I thought we had cornered the market on

I've been hearing for years that they're not talented...on CB.

Skatteboo's been carrying the load--our guys are in and out.
