I hope you are right about Lewis beacause I love my Browns. It would be crazy to see him blow up again. This is the NFL and anyone can blow up you never know.

Stephen Jackson especially if they draft Jake(not Howie's kid) Long. Lynch in Buffalo might have a big year too.

Honestly, the Minnesota Vikings have their entire offensive line coming back and Adrian Peterson has one more year to get adjusted to the Pro Game. You have to like A.P. here. The other challengers to the throne: Ronnie Brown (the Dolphins were running at will until all their injuries), Ryan Grant (he ran great last year and they will depend on the running game more now), Darren McFadden (he will be drafted by the Raiders and they were 3rd in rushing last year with ... Justin Fargas)!
Brian Westbrook wont get enough carries! Over half of his yards come from dump off passes. Plus, Donovan McNabb will have to try and prove himself relevant!
Joseph Addai has to compete against Peyton Manning and his pass happy offense. He just cant get enough carries
Marion Barber is going to have to split carries with ....SOMEONE!
It's got to be A.P., to bad they won't go anywhere because they have NO Passing game!

Well put, blackwave!!
I also agree with a few of you talking about Jamal Lewis. If he can stay healthy (and out of Jail then he'll do good. Cleveland has done some good things to keep a good team going and the addition of Stallworth, although not a #1, will help Anderson a bunch, therefore helping Lewis.
Green Bay fans, I think Ryan Grant would be a great option if they have a QB who can get it done and as we all know, Rogers is basically unproven. I personally think Rogers will do good as he has a good team and he knows the offense having been in the system for 3 years. If he doe's good, Grant does good and vicevera .
Gotta go, but I'll go further later.

Adrian Peterson won't get it because teams will put 8 and 9 in the box on the Vikes. Plus he shares some carries with Chester Taylor, which is a very good combo of backs. Frank Gore is good but not as good as people thought a few years ago. McFadden won't have as much of an impact as most think because he will probably drafted to a team with a good back already and will have to share carries. Reggie Bush shouldn't even be on here. He's more of a slot back in my opinion. Marion Barber is a great runner but the Cowboys won't give him the amount of carries as other starting backs because they'll look to keep him healthy. LT will face the same problems as AP and without Turner he will begin to wear down towards the end of the year. That leaves me with Addai who I think will be a fantasy stud next year. He'll get all the carries he needs and just as Edgerrin James did for them a few years back, Addai will run all over defenses. Joseph Addai: NFL rushing title!

NateDoggg,
I respect your opinion but you can't tell me Addai will get the rushing title when we all know Peyton Manning will also throw for 4200+ yards and 30+ TD's. I agree that Joseph Addai is a stud and is in the top 5 or so of running backs, but he's not getting the most yards this season.
Look for AP to contend in a big way with a better passing attack in Minn.

Mid Iowa Saint..
We all know Peyton will put up great numbers like he does every year, but Addai has another year under his belt and he is better than Edge was when he was rushing for 1500 yards plus. I'm from Minnesota, and I would love to see AP win it but so much needs to happen for the defense to honor our passing game. Plus, the Vikes took another bit hit with McKinnie's recent run in with the law.

The Chiefs will revamp the line through the draft and the winner will be Larry Johnson. Herm Edwards is a dinosaur when it comes to offensive philosophy. He might only average 3 yards a carry but the total yards and TDs will be LJs.

Ganja,
Refer to the above remarks by Natedogg... so much has to happen with the pass game. The Chiefs are struggling with the passing game (by the way, who's passing?).
I will say that Larry Johnson will do better this year since he's not worrying about contract talks & all that BS, but you need the whole team, not just the better back.

I agree Mid Iowa Saint.. Larry Johnson is a stud but they have 1 decent wide out and 1 good but aging tight end. Plus their qb is Brody Croyle... enough said

For the rushing title I'm gonna have to go with Lt or AP. I think that both of them are on teams that know how to utilize their ability, and thus giving them the opportunity to put up the stats.
But, I think Brian Westbrook will lead the running backs for total yards. If the Eagles don't get a WR, then you know he's gonna be catching the ball 5-10 times a game, while rushing another 20. He's amazing, if only he had some talent around him to help him out. It's not hard for teams to put 8 in the box when the WR's are #2's or 3's on another team.
