Because no one is talking about the history. We are talking about today's game, dumbass.
Oh really, so what is this....
The word "great" sure gets used pretty liberally in the NFL Forum
Travis Henry's first 3 seasons:
3523 rushing yards, 27 TDs
646 rec yds, 2 TDs
Willis McGahee's first 3 seasons (not counting 2003 when he was out for the year):
3365 rushing yds, 24 TDs
503 receiving yds
Antowain Smith:
2578 rushing yards, 22 TDs (only started in 25 of first 48 games, too).
220 receiving yards
Had 2 rushing TD's in the forward-lateral playoff game too
Marshawn is my boy and he's been invaluable to Seattle, but he wasn't great in Buffalo--a lot of that has to do with the O-line and having J.P. Losman or Trent Edwards at QB, though...
How about knowing about what you're talking about ok little man?
