I was skimming through pro football reference yesterday, and was looking at Kamara and CMC’s career stats. They have essentially had the exact same production in their careers.

Player Carries Rush Yards Receptions Receiving Yards Touches Scrimmage Yards TDs
Alvin Kamara 1,204 5,396 465 3,930 1,669 9,326 72
Christian McCaffrey 1,150 5,324 468 3,984 1,618 9,308 71
Difference 54 72 3 54 51 18 1

Both were drafted in 2017. Kamara has played in a few more games, but they have still had almost the same amount of carries and receptions. McCaffrey gets slightly more work on a per game basis, but maybe that’s contributed to him missing more time due to injury as well.

Overall though, it’s kinda crazy that after 6.5 seasons, two elite RBs from the same draft class are only separated by 18 scrimmage yards and 1 touchdown.

    I’d like to see the percentage of runs vs stacked boxes etc because not all teams are the same. CMC has never had a first ballot hall of famer at QB.
