The first ESPN Insider MNF feature has fun with similarity scores for the young running backs playing this Monday night: Jamaal Charles, Ray Rice, and Shonn Greene. (Ryan Mathews, of course, can't have scores since he's a rookie.) Before you click on the piece, see if you can name the only two players other than Charles to average 5.75 yards per carry with at least 150 carries (since 1978).

Minor weaknesses dot these teams. Except for Arizona, which needs to bring in more help to really run Bruce Arians' offense.

Barry Sanders and Chris Johnson is my guess.

Re: ESPN: Young RB Similarity Scores
I can think of only one regular here who will get this without looking.
Re: ESPN: Young RB Similarity Scores
So that tells us nothing.
Re: ESPN: Young RB Similarity Scores
My guess (before clicking)--Sanders & Dickerson.
