Though it's really nice for a backup (especially the 9 TDs). Nobody here doubts MJD's talent. Settle down. 768 yards and a 4.6 average is not amazing stats, Jeanne.

I guess they don't like his old age. Bunch of gosh darned ageist.

Certainly he has the talent and work ethic. He's also been amazingly durable - I think last years foot injury was a kind of freak event. Unlike some other players in the league noted for being 'distant or moody' LJ's personality between the lines has never lacked complete dedication and commitment. And you're right Adam - he DOES deserve more respect from some of these "fair-weather, we only love you when you win" Chiefs fans. LJ is the real deal, and I'm really glad King Carl ponied up the dough for him. If he's 100%, I will not be at all surprized to see him have 1500 yds in Chan's offense this season. Only LD and Adrian are in LJ's class in the league right now, and both of them are shifty, scatback types who will fade quickly when their speed declines. LJ runs downhlll like Jim Brown, and when he leaves the game, he'll be packing some league record book with him. Truthfully, LJ could end up as one of the top five RB’s of all time.

MJD had a great rookie season (won me a fantasy championship, thank you) but sophomore year was a bit of a let down considering what he did the year before. Yet I still love seeing him blow up Merriman! Yah I think people still like the sexy pick of Reggie.

I think he deserves it, and I only hope that he can prove it this season. Looking through the list, I'm surprised to see Maurice Jones-Drew so low and Reggie Bush so high though. 22 and 23 respectively. It’s really nice to see LJ getting that kind of recognition.
