You are right....we cannot judge the prowess of a linebacker on his rush per average.
But you can measure the prowess of a running back by that.
E. g. Jim Brown has the highest ypc average in the history of the game (for an RB...I think Mike Vick may have a higher one). It is what he is judged on. (but I doubt you know that because don't know shit about football)
And certainly I know who Samuels is....the Steeler backup RB who had to come in because Conner was hurt.
Or are you claiming it was Ridley...he who gained all of 80 yards rushing last year...fewer than BR.
Jim Brown got passed by Jamal Charles fyi.

Had to look that up? Charles was a good back.
But would anyone trade Jim Brown for him? No.

No, i didn't have to look it up. I remember when it happened. They are also from completely different eras. Jim Brown would not be as good now as he was then as players are bigger, faster and stronger now than they were during the brown era and that much is unarguable.

Munchak is gone, it's a blow but the lineman on the team aren't suddenly going to forget how to play and his replacement is good in his own right.
well, go look this up, vegitron. Your rapistbooger was SACKED 24 TIMES for 166 yards loss last year. and that is with A. Brown to throw to, and A. Brown ditched your team.
Stick a cork in it, and...

This just proves how ignorant you are.
Jim Brown was bigger, faster, stronger than just about any RB that is playing today:
Adrian Peterson 5'11 217
Zeke Elliot 6.0 225
Hunt 5' 11 205
Chubb 5'10 227
Conner 6'2 229
LeSean McCoy 5'11 207
Marshawn Lynch 5'11 215
Jim Brown 6'2 232
Jim Brown would be the best RB in this league...here, now today.
FYI....I have made a study of this: The ONLY positions playing today that are actually any bigger than the players that played in the 60s are Offensive linemen...and defensive tackle (mainly 3-4 nose tackles). And yes....QBs have gotten taller on average. (but is that about to change back to shorter average QBs...what with Murray/Mayfield etc. being shorter?
WRs are no bigger, DEs are no bigger, LBs are no bigger, DBs are no bigger. RBs are no bigger.
Can you imagine how Jim Brown would have run behind these bigger OL? Unstoppable.

Guess what? Neither are you. You didn't win it last year, your draft and FA pickups pale in comparison to what the Browns have done, and I won't be surprised if you're looking up at the Ravens besides the Browns come January.
You got a running back named Benny Hill? I thought he was a comedian. Um, the Browns will have a guy named Kareem Hunt in the lineup the first time we play Pittsburgh. Ever hear of him? Landry is a volume guy that makes the Pro Bowl every year.
Yup, that's all the Steeler fans got to hope for this season- that all the talent the Browns have amassed doesn't mesh.
Sure, some Browns fans are acting irrational and all but have the Super Bowl tickets printed already. Regarding the national media- hate to tell you, they're just reporting what they see. The talking heads that are saying pump the brakes, and you're overrating the Browns are WAY in the minority- so don't try and tell me 90%+ of them are biased. Could the Browns flop? Sure- everyone had the Jags penciled in for at least a repeat trip to the AFC Championship game last year, and they laid a major turd instead.
I can't wait for the season to start. Vernon is no better than either of the steeler defensive ends. Obj is really good but the steelers are a wr factory and have invested high draft picks in wr's for a while now. Juju was the last hit and Washington turned it on to end the season despite playing behind two 100 catch over 1000 yard receivers.
Ben > Baker
Our offensive line > yours by a country mile.
Our cancer in antonio brown is gone. Addition by subtraction. You need to get ready to be disappointed.
Edit: and benny snell has been compared to nick chubb for a while. Hunt isn't any better than Connor. Go watch some benny snell tape.

When I edited Gipper's roster list- the Steelers have four- five players I'd say that are significantly better than the Browns at their respective positions, (most on the o-line) and maybe a couple others I'll give a slight edge to. I'll even give you some that are equal. Ben had a great year last year, but was about throwing the ball until his arm fell off with 600+ attempts. Remains to be seen if he can maintain that level of production at 37 years old. Some of that production was due to the near bulletproof pass protection he was getting from the o-line. In case you missed the memo, Baker put up a bunch of record stats for a rookie, and in a lot of categories, they compare favorably to Ben's. Regarding Ju-Ju, (and I'm not saying he isn't great) let's see what happens this year when he's routinely drawing the other teams #1 CB, with Brown not around anymore. And from #2 WR on down, you're not even in the same ballpark as the Browns talent wise.
The rest is you talking out of your homer ass. Yeah, I had to look it up, but nice Steeler hyperbole about Snell. Chubb was way higher rated in the draft, and his combine results are significantly better in every measurable. Snell? 5.34 NFL BACKUP OR SPECIAL TEAMS POTENTIAL. LOL, and you're acting like he's the next Zeke Elliot. Oh, and you always find talented WRs in the lower rounds. I'll grant you it was a brilliant move to jump the Bengals to take Bush, but the rest of the Steelers defensive backfield is shaky at best. We're good, because we've always been good. Am I predicting a Steelers collapse? Nope, but you just might struggle to make the playoffs.
That's why in a nutshell you piss guys on the board off.

Jarvis Landry isn't that good. He's never been that good. He's a volume, possession wr. He brought a attitude change to Cleveland but to act like he's some special nfl talent is horribly misguided. He's just solid. I don't know where you read that profile on snell but all you need to do is watch the guys tape. He compares very favorably to leveon bell at Michigan state. He plays faster than he's timed. He was virtually guaranteed four yards everytime he touched the ball at Kentucky.
Ben threw for over 5000 yards at 37. His arm is fine barring injury. You should be excited about the Browns but not delusional. They have done zero with this current team. The Steelers with free agency and the draft are also going to be much better on defense. They led the league in sacks last year without mark barron, Bush and Steve Nelson. Nelson is the highest paid free agent in steeler history. They added a ton of speed on the defensive side of the ball in bush, Sutton smith and Grant. Justin Layne is no slouch either. They also added moncrief.
You should also go watch some diontae Johnson tape.

I don't think that but the fact is the league is much faster and more athletic now than it was in the Jim brown era. It cannot be debated.

I don't want any part of this back and forth between dueling fans, but I will clarify one thing for you Vagitron.
Juju is very good. But his production was helped by Antonio Brown. Its easier for a 2 to get single coverage. That doesn't mean Juju cant be the best receiver in the league, but it's not as simple as saying, he put up X numbers last year, he will be even better with AB gone.
I know you love your team, as does other fans from other teams, but need to look at it rationally if you actually want to be honest. You notice where I ranked each group? I didn't say the Browns were better everywhere, I even gave Pitt the edge at QB at the moment.

Well what is good for the gander...
I have NO issue with you loving your team. But how in the world can you say (without trying to troll/just talk crap) that Landry isnt very good, but tout about Washington and Moncrief?
I'll even break it down position wise. This is the upcoming season, as I think a couple could change in near future.
QB- P
RB- C
WR- C, P, C
TE- Toss Up
LT- P
LG- C
C- P
RG- P
RT- Toss Up
DE- C, P, C
DT- Toss Up
OLB- P, C
ILB- P, C
CB- C, P, C, P
S- P, C
K- Toss Up (I remember all the complaints about yours last year)
P- C
You could probably argue 1 or 2 (I'm sure you would argue a lot more), but I am a realist and know A LOT about the game.
P- 11
C- 12

No one cares about you Vag. It's all in your head.

It's no use using facts etc on vegetron - I suppose next he'll diss Baker as "not being good enough to be in the NFL" or something - just a guess at the typical vegematic stupidity.
I'm no experte' on football, but any of us on this board can best vage with a bit of research, logic and facts to his stupidass
belligerent declarations like he's dissing Jarvis Landry with. Makes himself look like a moron at times, no surprise here.

This just proves how ignorant you are.
Jim Brown was bigger, faster, stronger than just about any RB that is playing today:
Adrian Peterson 5'11 217
Zeke Elliot 6.0 225
Hunt 5' 11 205
Chubb 5'10 227
Conner 6'2 229
LeSean McCoy 5'11 207
Marshawn Lynch 5'11 215
Jim Brown 6'2 232
Jim Brown would be the best RB in this league...here, now today.
FYI....I have made a study of this: The ONLY positions playing today that are actually any bigger than the players that played in the 60s are Offensive linemen...and defensive tackle (mainly 3-4 nose tackles). And yes....QBs have gotten taller on average. (but is that about to change back to shorter average QBs...what with Murray/Mayfield etc. being shorter?
WRs are no bigger, DEs are no bigger, LBs are no bigger, DBs are no bigger. RBs are no bigger.
Can you imagine how Jim Brown would have run behind these bigger OL? Unstoppable.
How many 4.3 guys played in his era? How many linebackers ran 4.3-4.4 in his era? The league is different now.

When I edited Gipper's roster list- the Steelers have four- five players I'd say that are significantly better than the Browns at their respective positions, (most on the o-line) and maybe a couple others I'll give a slight edge to. I'll even give you some that are equal. Ben had a great year last year, but was about throwing the ball until his arm fell off with 600+ attempts. Remains to be seen if he can maintain that level of production at 37 years old. Some of that production was due to the near bulletproof pass protection he was getting from the o-line. In case you missed the memo, Baker put up a bunch of record stats for a rookie, and in a lot of categories, they compare favorably to Ben's. Regarding Ju-Ju, (and I'm not saying he isn't great) let's see what happens this year when he's routinely drawing the other teams #1 CB, with Brown not around anymore. And from #2 WR on down, you're not even in the same ballpark as the Browns talent wise.
The rest is you talking out of your homer ass. Yeah, I had to look it up, but nice Steeler hyperbole about Snell. Chubb was way higher rated in the draft, and his combine results are significantly better in every measurable. Snell? 5.34 NFL BACKUP OR SPECIAL TEAMS POTENTIAL. LOL, and you're acting like he's the next Zeke Elliot. Oh, and you always find talented WRs in the lower rounds. I'll grant you it was a brilliant move to jump the Bengals to take Bush, but the rest of the Steelers defensive backfield is shaky at best. We're good, because we've always been good. Am I predicting a Steelers collapse? Nope, but you just might struggle to make the playoffs.
That's why in a nutshell you piss guys on the board off.
Jarvis Landry isn't that good. He's never been that good. He's a volume, possession wr. He brought a attitude change to Cleveland but to act like he's some special nfl talent is horribly misguided. He's just solid. I don't know where you read that profile on snell but all you need to do is watch the guys tape. He compares very favorably to leveon bell at Michigan state. He plays faster than he's timed. He was virtually guaranteed four yards everytime he touched the ball at Kentucky.
Ben threw for over 5000 yards at 37. His arm is fine barring injury. You should be excited about the Browns but not delusional. They have done zero with this current team. The Steelers with free agency and the draft are also going to be much better on defense. They led the league in sacks last year without mark barron, Bush and Steve Nelson. Nelson is the highest paid free agent in steeler history. They added a ton of speed on the defensive side of the ball in bush, Sutton smith and Grant. Justin Layne is no slouch either. They also added moncrief.
You should also go watch some diontae Johnson tape.

Do you see why people think your are a fucking Retard. Statements like this.

Yes, he is solid. He is perhaps the premier possession receiver in football...and has been for a number of years. Any number of players have made the HOF being just that, going back to Dante Lavelli, Fred Biletnikoff, Steve Largent, Raymond Berry, Lance Alworth, Art Monk, Cris Carter, Charlie Joiner, Don Maynard and others......Landry's stats have surpassed all of them over the last several years. Again, more evidence of your football ignorance.

FOUR yards...in college? For a RB? That is not even mediocre.

Actually, they went from 0-16 to 7-8-1 in a year. That is not "nothing". That is tremendous improvement. Or can you not count either? (and they have added a mass of talent in the offseason.

It remains to be seen how much better, if at all, the Steelers will be on defense.

I don't want any part of this back and forth between dueling fans, but I will clarify one thing for you Vagitron.
Juju is very good. But his production was helped by Antonio Brown. Its easier for a 2 to get single coverage. That doesn't mean Juju cant be the best receiver in the league, but it's not as simple as saying, he put up X numbers last year, he will be even better with AB gone.
I know you love your team, as does other fans from other teams, but need to look at it rationally if you actually want to be honest. You notice where I ranked each group? I didn't say the Browns were better everywhere, I even gave Pitt the edge at QB at the moment.
You will find out in a hurry it's the grumpy old fucks with the exception of hoorta who i actually like that get all huffy puffy and make all this strictly about Browns vs steelers. I'm in gipper's head and always have been. All you need to do is go on the political board to cast off everything cal says as ridiculous as its clear he's mentally deficient. I'm perfectly capable of having a level headed discussion about the teams but others aren't. Specifically grumpy Santa (gipper) the threads become shit shows and quickly get off topic. Case in point this thread is about greedy and I posted why he fell. Gipper and his elves turned it into something else.

Sure, I am in your head and your head is up your ass.
All I do is give valid stats and numbers. All you give us is Dusty Springfield....you're just a wishing and a hoping and a dreaming that the guys you get will be good. Some may be, and some won't be.
If it is a shit show, it is because you hate facts and information.
What you have had is a top notch QB. But dude is now 37....and while he certainly could be just as good as ever...another thing you are just a wishing and hoping for. He could be in Eli Manning territory.
