Would love to see future prop- Will Tiki Barber Have 1000 yard season?

ttwarrior1 · 06-19-11, 08:27 PM

is this a joke, he won't even start and might not even make a team.

Id risk my life on it. You would like to lose money i guess. He won't get 700

It's not a joke. How many yards did he run for in his last season? He had plenty left. He doesn't have the wear and tear of a 36 year old back. Less mileage. The odds would be long and I would go as big as I could on it. Give Barber a season with a team where he GETS THE PLAYING TIME and he'll go for 1000 yard EASY

He is too old, he will get hurt very quick

Injury is the problem when you get older in NFL

His last season was over 5 years ago and he's old for a RB...he ain't getting over 1000...even if he could stay healthy for all 16 games.

I'll give you +10000

hawkwind · 06-19-11, 09:08 PM

he won't play long enough to get 500

InTheDrink · 06-19-11, 09:09 PM

i'd place the odds of the op being baked are more likely than tiki even playing in a game

will2survive · 06-19-11, 09:14 PM

+10000 seems appealing. If there ever was odds, it might possibly involve all purpose yards

BigDan · 06-19-11, 09:15 PM

C'mon man. Even if the guy comes back strong like you think, lets say with Tampa, he still would be splitting the load and if he exceeds everyone expectations (besides yours) you still only looking at 700-800 yrds. Im pretty sure everyone here would love to give you odds on this.

I said if he got a sufficient amount of playing time--that's the key--it's possible

He's a douche. He won't make a team

OnTheRise23 · 06-19-11, 09:31 PM

no chance

dynamite140 · 06-19-11, 11:06 PM

just a few 80 yard runs and he could get it

Mr. Jones · 06-19-11, 11:12 PM

He may be carried on a roster for awhile. And that's optimistic.

newjerseydevils · 06-19-11, 11:14 PM

dont even know is he will be a starter for any team yet. might be a backup with a few carries

stikymess · 06-19-11, 11:37 PM

Not sure he would be the main back, maybe the 3rd down back and at what money he expects I doubt anyone signs him.

If he got 20 carries a game maybe he could, but I don't know if he is even in the top 500 RB's in the world right now, he will not get the carries.

you guys are losing it. Barber didn't lose his god given talent from age 31 to 36. Not only that, no wear and tear from that time period. A man on a mission is someone to be reckoned with. He screwed up but this is an intelligent man that can not only run but can catch the ball too. Look at his numbers. They were peaking when he left

rm18 · 06-20-11, 12:39 AM

As far as I know Marcus Allen is the only man to ever play tailback at that age?

will2survive · 06-20-11, 12:51 AM

I've seen Marcus play in college and the pros. Why can't Tiki do it? He had a break. He'll be rusty at first but he's fresh. He's a lot more powerful than Marcus Allen. Allen was agile. Barber has more of a power game. He's been working out everyday. I'm definitely convinced that if he can get the playing time, he'll eclipse 1000 or he'll rush and receive for an amount well over 1000 combined

will2survive · 06-20-11, 12:54 AM

I also don't like when people say Barber's twin is a hall of famer and Tiki isn't. Tiki should be a hall of famer hands down. The guy f'ed up, disrespecting Eli and the Giants win when he leaves. That's all the more reason to come back and prove a point. Why won't anyone give this guy a second chance? Ray Lewis and Donte Stallworth are welcome but Tiki Barber isn't? That's totally f'ed up

ttwarrior1 · 06-20-11, 01:06 AM

lol the dude could hardly get 1k 10 years ago with a dominate line and playing against bums. tiki is not even close to a 1st ballot hall of famer. You sir are now the biggest moron on sbr. Im not 9th in line
