YOU'RE THE ONLY PERSON ON THIS PLANET THAT WOULD RATHER HAVE WHITE OVER MCFADDEN. You can't be serious with that post? Darren McFadden would run for 1500+ yards in Tennessee easily.
The sad thing really is the fact that you have failed to make a valid argument for Mcfadden. You cant even answer any of the questions i asked you about his career thus far. It further goes to show your lack of understanding of football which i will expound on further.
But first let me correct you on the bogus statement that i would be the only person to pick White over Mcfadden. Actually Jeff fisher would do the same. He recently cut a running back by the name of Chris brown, who was much much faster than white and even run with a style similar to Mcfadden.
Let me explain to you what a value of a running back in the NFL has come down to nowadays. Coaches look for a durable back who will play the whole season. Not 4 games, not 8 games not 10 games, but 16 games. 16 games!
Mcfadden simply doesnt have the build or the body to even survive the titans running style for even half a season. He would be injured and out for multiple games a year.
And if you are playing on a Jeff Fisher coached team, he only requires one thing from his bruiser running back. That he gets him a first down on third and short. Thats what fisher looks for a in a back. Thats what many coaches desire in a running back. Outside of me and fisher, i am guessing all the other people you polled on the planet would also pick Reggie Bush over lendale white..(actually you should make that 3 people because the USC coach would pick White over Mcfadden, ala playing him over bush on the most important down in the history of USC football)
How many of those people would be second guessing themselves now that Bush is out for 4 games?
Second thing they look for in a back is ball security. White had his fair share of fumbles last year, but he has put a clump on that and has not had any turn overs this year. CAn you say the same for Mcfadden?
To finish, i wanna say that Lendale white is in Tennessee. for a reason. NOt by accident like you seem to think is the reason for Mcfadden's presence in Oakland. Ok i have said it, that a faster running back could have possibly run for over 1500 yards last year playing behind the titans o-line. But that ignores the issue, how many running backs could have taken the punishment white took last year? Running into 8 even 9 man fronts with coaches daring the woeful vince young to beat them passing?
Do people think that Jeff fisher accidentally running backs as though they were going out of style or something? Lendale white, Quinto Gunther, chris henry, Chris Johnson all in the last three years? You think that was by accident for a team that every one was screaming should draft wide recievers?
The simple answer is, fisher drafted White for a specific role. A big bruising Mike Alstott type back to be complimented by a smaller faster scat back in either quinton gunther, chris henry or chris johnson (incase you are wondering all three are still on the team).
There is plenty of evidence of a strategy and this year we are seeing a plan come to fruition.
It is absurd to make dumb statements about how Mcfadden could succeed in Nashville despite the fact that he doesnt even meet the requirements of the coaches and the team!
White is 100% doing everything his coach has asked of him. Running the ball and scoring tds. He is hardly a bust. I could settle for some one calling him the average bruising back, but a bust? hell no!d1g1t
Ps.. You guys really picked a fine time to diss the fat boy! 8 tds leading the league (will probably be 10 by next week monday 11pm), no turn overs and a lovely 80 yard td just this weekend. I thank you for making my job really easy.
