a guy like eddie can just pound away and never break the long one, but his 250 other carries or so will be just as good as the other guys, or better

guy A carries the ball 200 times and gets 1000 yards. 5.0 yards per carry

the home run hitter also carries the ball 200 times, but had the two runs of 70 and 80. 1150 yards. 5.7 yards per carry

huge difference because of 2 carries
2 game changing carries....yea, we shouldn't count those.
