Chester Taylor to hit 1,000 yards rushing Sunday

He currently has 999 yards & barring a catastrophe, will hit the 1,000 yards for the season on his first or 2nd carry.

If he continues at his current pace & stays healthy, he will have close to 1,500 yards for the season & I have seen him improving his game each week.

With his receiving yards he is on pace to finish between 1,800 and 1,900 yards for the year!
Way to go Chester!

go chester!!!
nice to finally see a runner who topped 1000 yds.
its been 4 years since we've had one of those.
it would be really nice to see him top 1500 so keep it up!!

Good for him, I thought he was a bad choice when Childress signed him, but he gave me a nice surprise. Let's hope he hits at least 1500 by seasons end.

Go Chester.

Is anybody concerned about his fumbles? I know a couple of them he couldn't help because he was being hit during the exchange with BJ, but the other ones are somewhat perplexing! Not to speak too soon, but congrats on your first 1,000 yard rushing season CT.

One of the fumbles the ball was actually ripped out of his hands & the one last Sunday I still don't believe was a fumble. He was down.

I watched the game that I had taped of the Cardinals game & what was quite odd was they didn't show the reply from the endzone looking directly at his head. They showed that replay more than once at the dome, but never on TV.

Why???

That is why you heard the big boo from the crowd when they didn't reverse the call. It was clear to me & 63,000 other fans that he was down.
