Larry Czonka and Mercury Morris did it for the Dolphins. I believe it was the year of the perfect season.

Ickey Woods and James Brooks came real close...Woods 1000+ and Brooks was about 950 in 1988. Word and Okoye came reasonably close with 1000+ for Word and Okoye in the 800's. Csonka and Morris did it in 72 with Morris getting 1000 yards on the nose.

So this will be the first time in 20 years it's happened if all goes well? (knocking on wood here)........that would go well with the Western division title and a home playoff game :thumbs:

They are on pace for it too happen. Id be pumped to see that happen!! In this day and age where players hate RBBC and their are so many "playmakers" at the RB position it would be sweet to have 2!

I feel your pain.

Against Washington, I had Mike Anderson starting and Tatum Bell on the bench.

Against New England, I had Tatum Bell starting and Mike Anderson on the bench.

Last week, I started both Mike Anderson and Tatum Bell.

This weekend? Who knows?
