Mike Tolbert scored well. He had significantly less yards (both rushing & receiving), and a worse rushing average. It's not even really comparable. For being their only option, it's amazing Hillis put up the season that he did. You'd figure with the pathetic receiving corp and shitty options at RB that the opposing defense would be able to single in on Hillis and shut him down.

Personally, I would have put somebody more exciting on the cover if it were to be a RB -- Arian Foster (led in YFS, rushing yards, rushing TDs, total TDs) or Jamaal Charles (pretty amazing 6.4 YPC), or even McFadden (5.2 YPC and 10 total TDs despite getting injured for a portion of the season).

Or of course you could have put a QB on there -- Rodgers, Vick, Brady.

All in all, it doesn't really matter. I just think Hillis is getting a raw deal in this thread so far.
His numbers just werent that spectacular, not to mention in the last 5 weeks of the season he scored NOT ONE TD and only went over 100 yards once.
