He's just as good catching the ball out of the backfield

at minimum you need a suspension for this and i would probably even support a banning


westbrook is a superior player both in running and catching the ball and its not even close...again if you dont think he should get jordan money then thats your opinion but he is a much better player and is going to get jordans money and more from someone...and thats a fact

Bullshtein, the thing about Jordan is that he's a punishing back who also has great recieving ability. You don't know anything about him if you think otherwise. His hands were good enough to pass for TD's in college.

There is no comparison between these two. They are COMPLETELY different backs. This debate is a joke.

Is it a joke that Bwest compares himself to Jordan when he says he wants Jordan like money?? It's been the subject of the last three pages of this thread.

They are somewhat different though, Jordan is more versatile in the fact that he can run inside, and has the speed to run outside as well, and catch the ball out of the backfield with the best of them.

I just don't agree with that at all. Bwest in no way is that much better than Jordan, imo. Time will most likely prove me correct.

dont make yourself look silly and say that lamont jordon is a better player than westbrook

I never said that Jordan is better than Bwest. He's better at running up the middle, theres no doubt about that. He's just as good catching the ball out of the backfield. He might not have the same elusiveness of Bwest, but he has the speed. He has yet to get injured that I know of, thats the big diff right there.

Again, don't try and put words in my mouth, I said Bwest is not worth Jordan money, and Jordan has yet to prove he's worth what they are paying him.

I don't know what you're talking about there. He may only have 499 yards rushing but he has 7 rushing TD's and then he also has 314 receiving yards and two TD's. I'd say that's earning your money, especially when you are on a pass oriented offense. Who else has 9 TD's?

You have a point there, but I'd wait until he has a full season under his belt to pass that kind of judgment. But your right, 813 all purpose yards and 9 td's ain't nothing to sneeze at.

For what it's worth, Bwest has 304 rushing yards and 423 receiving yards for 727 all purpose yards, with 5 td's. Those stats are very comparable to Jordans except Lamonts 9 td's jump him ahead by a considerable amount if your looking at thier overall worth.

Comparing these two backs is silly.  It's like comparing Marvin Harrison and T.O.

Westbrook deserves close to Lamont Jordan money.  A little bit under, the same, a little bit over... that's the issue.

He'll probably get his extension within the next 24 hrs.  That may fire the team up. :yay
More Mahe please.

They should just to spite Owens. I'd laugh a hearty belly-laugh.

I don't see how it's silly to compare two players who play the same position, have similar numbers, but different running styles.

With our lack of a running game this year, I'd almost rather have Jordan on this team.

right because our lack of running game is because of bwest now? i bet u a million bucks, which i can then donate to the TO needs more money foundation, that even if we have lamant jordan we wouldnt be even running. its more the playcalling and reid's thinking than anything else.
