The AFC East:

Pats: Laurence Maroney
Bills: Marshawn Lynch
Fins: Ronnie Brown
Jets: Thomas Jones

Thats a solid young group, what about the others?

West is my choice.

LT
Jordan
Henry
LJ

its gonna be very hard to argue that the division with the 2 most productive rb;s the past 2 years isnt the best.

but for arguments sake how about the NFC West:

Gore
Shaun
Edge
Jackson



TOp to bottom, thats a wicked list. Edge isnt what he used to be, but he is solid.

The AFC Central, err, North isn't all that bad either:

1. McGahee
2. Jamal Lewis
3. Rudi Johnson
4. Willie Parker

Still, the AFC West is pretty solid.

AFC East beats that.

Let's take a look:

1. AFCW: Tomlinson, L Johnson, Henry, Jordan/Rhodes
2. AFCE: Maroney, Lynch, Thomas, Brown
3. AFCN: McGahee, R Johnson, Lewis, Parker
4. AFCS: Addai, Green, White, Taylor/Jones-Drew

1. NFCW: Gore, James, Jackson, Alexander
2. NFCE: Westbrook, Jones/Barber, Jacobs, Portis
3. NFCS: Williams, Dunn, Foster, McAllister/Bush
4. NFCN: Morency, C Taylor/Peterson, K Jones/Bell, Benson

Between NFCW and AFCW, NFCW is more balanced but AFCW has more star power.

I think its safe to say the NFC North has the least intimidating set of RBs.

That group is terrible!

Maroney showed nothing after the first few weeks
Lynch hasn't played a down
Ronnie Brown was average at BEST last year.
Thomas Jones scares NOBODY!

AFC East beats that.
2. AFCE: Maroney, Lynch, Thomas, Brown


OK, I can see your point, but it is really hard for me to argue with two RBs that haven't been full time starters (one being a rookie that hasn't doesn't have a carry in the league yet), one new to a team, and one that looked average at best last year. If you want to go on potential I can have that argument. You are better off with another division.

I like that group out of the AFC South.

Addai will get more touches this year and put up like 1400 yards without sharing the load with Rhodes.

Jones-Drew is a special player and a guy who one day could very easily be a top 3 back in this league. Fred Taylor is still no slouch either.

Ahman Green while getting up there is a multi-dimension threat for the Texans.

Lendale White is a huge question mark which puts this division below the two mentioned as the top in my opinion. But he has the potential to be great if he has the heart, desire and diet lol

TOp to bottom, thats a wicked list. Edge isnt what he used to be, but he is solid.
Gore - I'll give you, but it will be interesting to see if he can do it again.
Alexander - Injured too much, might be losing a step or two.
Edge - Not anymore.
Jackson - I'll give you, I've liked him since his college days.

My post wasnt my choice I was just starting things off. I didnt much feel like posting all the rbs for each division. My bad.

Personally I think the NFC West.

I'd have to go with the AFC west, LT and LJ alone would put them over the top, but add Henry and Jordan and it's tough to beat that group.

Hmmm, great topic. Nice change of pace from the typical crap.

NFC West?

Alexander
Gore
Stephen Jackson
Edgerrin James

I like the AFC East as well but Jones isnt much more than average, Brown hasnt proved anything yet, Maroney looks like a beast but hasnt started as the #1 guy a whole year yet, and Lynch is a rookie.

Tough call between the two Wests. I'll go with the NFC because all four have established themselves as the clear-cut choice for their respective teams.

Tomlinson's a given, Johnson may not even be a Chief when the season rolls around, we still aren't sure how Henry is going to perform in Denver, and I'm not real fond of two-headed attacks like Jordan/Rhodes.

NFC West has the best RB's.

That's what I'm thinking.

I got to be honest, I think you guys are overrating the AFCE. Marshawn Lynch and Laurence Maroney have done nothing in the league yet. It's all potential between the two, although Maroney has shown flashes. Thomas Jones could also take a hit playing behind New York's line. I like the potential of Mangold and Feurgeson, but Olin Kreutz and John Tait are beasts.
