Re: Best Running Backs in Madden 11
 

As a Lions fan, I cant love him, but he is a good player, I think he will really benefit from this new Chicago Offense. Just look at week 1 and you'll see why.

1) CJ2k, got to love him in M11
2) Rashard Mendenhall
3) Jamaal Charles
4) Steven Jackson
5) Justin Forsett, he isn't an elite RB, but he can be a difference maker.

My list is a bit.. different. :cool:

Re: Best Running Backs in Madden 11
 

def like your list alot. You go for more of the underrated players

Re: Best Running Backs in Madden 11
 

Toughest backs to play against:

1. AP (power and speed)
2. CJ (easy to take down, but on toss plays, he will burn you easily)
3. Ronnie Brown (his speed and power make him a poor man's AP w/o the fumbling problem)
4. Steve Jackson (can break 4 tackles with ease and still fall forward)
5. Michael Turner (look at SJ)

Tie.

Frank Gore/AP/Chris Johnson

Re: Best Running Backs in Madden 11
 

As I play mostly franchises using weaker teams I havent used a lot of the elite backs although I may try one with tennesee here at some point so I would say:

1. Stephen Jackson, a complete beast who fights through contact and can carry the load very well

2. Johnathan Stewart, Saw him on the trading block playing as detroit, good power and makes a great combo with javid best

3. Best, great speed and makes huge plays, will probably become overly powerful after 1st couple weeks performance but a total home run threat

4. Jamal Charles, Dont know why but he always seemed to average over 5 yards a carry and make a couple big plays every game even without a great oline

5. Dexter McCluster, Not a running back but I moved him there to fufill the same role I had best play in detroit, one year in the 1st 8 games he had 12 plays over 20 yards and 10 TDs in 14 carries and 8 receptions and also had a couple return TDs. Pretty much just used him on 3rd and long plays and as a returner but running little draws and screens he changed 3rd and long with no real wide out threats from a throw away play into a scoring chance.

Im surprised how nobody mentioned Spiller , he destroys me so bad when i play bills, at least when he checks in and yesterday i have been burned you wont believe by who
J.Ringer i believe his name is , 2nd running back for tenesee, he checked in for 3&2 , went for 10 yards and after that , kept coming every 2 plays and had like 80 yards on 9 carries (Johnson had 130 on 20) and funniest part is that its second time like that, he comes in 2make 1st down and if he does it succesfully, get ready to get owned.
