It's Championship/Playoff time here in New England, and it's time to take a couple of days to spotlight some of the top individual performers that have achieved and or bypassed the 1000-yard rushing mark this season. In this report, I give a closer look at these prospects, where I'll highlight their season play and what they bring to the table as football players.
