Gore will be better than LJ.

And what's the point of saying you'd rather take LT over Gore? It's quite obvious. LaDainian is the best there is, why would you pass on him if you had a choice?

And dude who said Gore is slow as fuck.. Wrong. He's pretty fast but he seems to lack the stamina to continue his speed in the open field. He slows down toward the end of those 50+ yard runs.

You hit the nail on the head wit that one. I was bout to say the same shit. Gore is pretty fast, and he can bust out a 10-20 yarder outta no where, but when he does the 40+ he be slowin down towards the end. He'll get better wit time, its nothin. Just a matter of a lil conditionin plus another year of exp. under his belt. I'm just excited as fuck bout the off season with a couple of the FAs that are out there. Too take this in another direction who yall think we should take in the draft 1st rounder?

LJ over Gore all day...

I definitely disagree. Not just because I'm a Niner/Frank Gore fan.


I like LJ too...


But LJ is going to be another Eddie George type of story. He is way overworked and The Chiefs offense rely too heavily on his rushing. He's already at 352 rushing attempts on the season,a league high , thats a heavy ass load...

At this pace, you'll be lucky to get another 2 good seasons out of him...he's already 27, and as we all know...30 seems to be that unlucky number for RB's...and for someone taking a load like LJ does, and with the running style that he has...its gonna be tough on his body.


Frank Gore on the other hand, is only in his second year in The NFL, and is already leading the league in rushing yards average, meaning, he's making more out of every run, as opposed to just carrying the ball more. And he's more of an elusive back than LJ, meaning, he's going to take a lot less punishment than LJ, who has more of a Jamal Lewis style attack.

Plus, Frank is a better all purpose back, he's got better hands than LJ, and arguably better field vision, which is a big reason why he's got more rushes of 20 or more yards than anyone in the league @ 14.



Just my .02, I still feel like LT is the best hands down right now, but Gore is still young ( His birthday is 5 days before mine, to the exact year 5/14/1983, Taurus' unite ! LOL ) and he is only going to get better.

Do you just make shit up?

Gore has two reconstructed knees...he may never be a speed burner. But he's fast enough...that's all that matters.
