My favorite part is the photo (not the caption). Because I can never get enough of those Houston Oilers uniforms. It’s a travesty that they are gone forever!

It’s heavily biased by the team you are on. It seems as almost any
RB that has played with Peyton Manning has had a high success rate. With a good QB you get more 2nd and 3rd and shorts where you are more likely to succeed.

If you are on a bad team you get carries where your likelyhood of succeeding is low because the QB is so bad.

Using football outsiders website McGahee was 26th at 46% success rate last season with Tebow/Orton. He’s #1 so far at 61% with Peyton.
