It's cool, Arky, but I think you kind of missed my point. Just looking at the stats one might think both guys performed equally, but my EYES told me that what Slaton did was much more impressive. He did it against Dallas better defenders, the way he performed leads me to believe he can repeat it from week to week. He seems to run very well in traffic, and he seems quite good at not going down on first contact. He is slippery, but fast. I have every confidence that if given equal opportunities, Slaton would outperform Chris Taylor.
