Another? He was averaging 2.6 YPC coming into the day. Chiefs have the worst run defense in the league and have completely quit. Wouldn't make too much of White's numbers today.

Chris Johnson should be getting 80% of the carries for the Titans.

He was averaging 2.6 YPC going into today's game.

Today was hist first good game of the season. He was a first round draft pick and he's already been replaced by Johnson as the starting RB. He's the second best RB on his team.

Whormoan thinks if you went to USC and don't make the Pro Bowl on a yearly basis, you're a bust.

It's pretty easy to go over 1000 yards now-a-days. He also averaged 3.6 YPC last season which isn't good either.

Really easy to go over 1000? ARe you serious? He only run against 8 even 9 man fronts last year because thats all the titans could do right (with VY throwing dumbass ints every other series). They were keying in on the guy the whole year and he still managed to put up a 1000.


Lendale white is not the fastest guy, but he gives Jeff Fisher a very valuable 3rd and short style back. Fisher cherishes an RB who can get him those 3 hard yards just leaning forward. And hate lendale white all you can, but he almost, almost never loses yardage. I can only remember one time this year where he lost yardage, and he was hit in the backfield by an unblocked DE.


(I hate to spill mans personal business, but just so you know, Lendale white downs a bottle of Patron and multiple cigars every friday, before game day... And then he goes out and scores two tds:ohno:. I bullshit you not. Its the worst kept secret in nashville)

Side story: We were watching football at a friends house and he was on tv doing an interview. He said some one threw beer on him after he scored a TD and that the beer tasted good. We laughed for 10 minutes and my friends wife almost threw us out of the house because she and her friends couldnt get the joke)

Reggie Bust returns 2 punts for TDs on a Mon nite and all of his lovers come out of the woodwork. Lendale White runs wild against the worst team in the NFL (arguably) and here come the overreactors. Cmon' Red Eye, you're better than that. First of all, White is less of a bust than most USC players because he came out with far less hype and expectations. That being said, he's out of shape, has a bad attitude, and really hasn't acheived shit in his 3+ yrs. He was a 2nd rd pick who was handed the job and has already lost it to a rook. His yd/carry avg is one of the worst in the league. Wake me up when he strings 3 straight good games together or does it against a good D

Lendale white is actually leading the league in TD with 8 ahead of Portis.
He is being used in a thunder and lightning role as a running back not a punt returner. There are many teams in the league that would love to have a durable dependable running back that is yet to fumble all season long.
He may be slow, but titans didnt draft him for speed. (unless you think fisher is a complete moron to draft the slowest back from the combines and then follow it up a few years later with two back to back small but fast RB.

Fisher got the backs he wanted, now his vision and plan are playing out infront of your eyes.

Look for Lendale white to score two td monday night vs the colts.

Then you will have to find some other excuse as to why he sucks.

I had a friend(pothead) who went to USC, he said Lendale was a huge stoner and everyone knew it, even the coaches. He said that the coaches actually pulled a joke on Lendale asking him to piss in a cup and scared the shit out of him and then laughed at him. I also heard Cassell was a pothead too, but quit when he became the starter. But I'm sure Lendale still smokes...just look at him, looks like a stoner.lol

I have to believe he has done more then alot of picks slotted ahead of him. He is used alot for 3rd and short yardage. Thats why he doesn't have big YPG average. Very valuable player for a 2nd rd pick, idiotic to think thats a bust

surprised you would come into this thread with that garbage, especially with some of the Penn St flops thru the years coming into the league disguised as RB's

I have gone through that draft upto number 45 where lendale was picked. And i am really shocked as to how badly the experts had this draft.

These are the top guys i consider booms over lendale white in that draft by position at which they play.


12. Baltimore (from Cleveland) - Haloti Ngata, DT Oregon
19. San Diego - Antonio Cromartie, CB Florida State
30. Indianapolis - Joseph Addai, RB LSU


Then white comes next. at number 45.

And Addai was the beneficiary of a great QB and WR corp that helped his game tremendously. Put him on another team and i doubt he is that productive. Maroney, same deal, even then White is still beating out maroney in production, total number of yards, total games played, total number of tds.
Lendale meanwhile spent his entire first year as a starter playing with one of the leagues worst QB's and the leagues worst passing game and still produced 1000 yards playing with a torn ligament in his knee. (how about that for a bust?)

I dont want to get carried away with this LW praise, truth of the matter is, had he been say 20 lbs lighter, he would have had 1500 yards (i kid you not). So many times last year, he would break into the secondary for what looked like 40 even 60 yard scores but would get tracked down by lbs and safeties who wouldnt have even dreamt of catching Cris Johsnon in the same position. This happened to him in games at least once or twice for all the games he played.

But then again, make him 20 lbs lighter, then he is no longer durable and probably wouldnt last the season as long as he did with the pounding he gave and took.

Jeff fisher saw the exact same thing i am talking about regarding Whites good and bad, and so he drafted a scat back (who turned out to even be more than they hoped for)

Lendale white still has his job and his coaches still love him (even with his bad habits)

He may not be AP or LT but he gets the job done..(i hope he can just slow down with all the partying jeeZ. he is one lucky fool he is stuck in dead ole Nashville)

Put Lendale White on a team that doesn't have one of the best OL's in the league and see how quickly he gets through lesser holes. White is a below average NFL RB. I could name at least 25 I would want before him without even thinking that hard. I will give him this - his fat ass is good around the goalline.

For a 2nd Rd pick he still is way above what most teams get for that pick. Nothing else to argue about

One could say put him on a team with a real passing game and he would excel.

There is a fundamental failure to understand exactly what kind of player lendale white is and why he was drafted by the titans. I have tried really hard to explain to you why/how lendale white is good enough for the titans.

It is completely absurd to make a bogus charge that he is below average while leading the league in tds scored. Yes, Lendale white has more tds than adrian peterson, ladian tomlinson, clinton portis etc etc.

Granted he is running behind an above average o-line, the fact remains that he doesnt have the proper passing game to help his running game. Ap actually has a better o-line and comparable passing game and on top of that is the feature back of the Vikings and gets the majority of the carries.
Lendale white is only getting half the carries and he has managed to score his league leading 8 tds.


If that makes him a below average RB, well then the titans should draft more of these usc fat busts.

Other than the 1 yesterday, how many of those TDs came from outside the 5 yd line? Outside the 3 yd line? Scoring a bunch of short TDs in goal-line situations (when you weren't the one to get your team down there a la Adrian Peterson or Portis) does not make you a great or even good RB. Lendale White is a below-avg NFL RB.

Actually he had two tds outside the 5 yard line this week. And he has more tds further out.

but i wont let you reduce this debate to that. Because any half way smart sports fan would remind you that last year when he got the bulk of the carries he did rack up 1000 yards. On an injured knee no less.

NOw this year when he has some one to help share the load, he is a bust?

thats total b/s!

And yet again, i have to remind you. This is why fisher drafted him. he wanted that big guy to punish defenses in the redzone and thats exactly what he got.
