Shaun Alexander: stat hog?

how did he get screwed?the hawks are more worried about wins than stats.maybe mr alexander should worry about we instead of me

I agree that they should be more worried about wins and losses, but before the game last season they told him that they would find out how many yards he needed and try to get it for him. Then they took him out when he could have easily gotten the record, that probably would have irked me a little bit too, although, I can't think of many backs in the league who would react like that. Whatever the case, he is who he is, a great back...on paper at least.

i think if you have a chance to get in the record books why not. lets just say he never gets a ring he can sure say he lead the league in rushing and in touchdowns that year. Damn let the guy have his day/year in the spotlight. If it was portis you would be put him in put him in. I mean if you wanna talk about stat hog look at rice. he stayed 20 years in the nfl and you can say he stayed to put his stats out of reach.

It's not a huge, huge deal, but Alexander would have looked like a better man for giving his main blocker Mack Strong a chance to score a TD.
