Ameer Abdullah or Brian Westbrook? The NFL Stat Breakdown

The career statistics tell a clear story in this RB comparison. Brian Westbrook holds the advantage in 5 of 6 key categories, with Rush Touchdowns representing the most decisive gap — a 355.6% difference that separates these two NFL players. This is not a close debate on the numbers.

Brian Westbrook's Rush Touchdowns of 41 compared to Ameer Abdullah's 9 represents a 355.6% advantage — dramatically better than their counterpart in this critical category. Ameer Abdullah falls 77.5% below the career average of 40 in this category while Brian Westbrook exceeds it. It is the single most decisive number in this comparison and the clearest statistical argument for Brian Westbrook's edge.

The most competitive category in this matchup is Yards Per Carry, where Ameer Abdullah posts 4.1 against Brian Westbrook's 4.6 — a gap of just 12.2%. Ameer Abdullah can point to this as evidence that the overall comparison is closer than the final 5-1 tally suggests. In any debate, Yards Per Carry is the statistical ammunition for the Ameer Abdullah side.

Running back careers are defined by efficiency as much as volume. Yards per carry separates elite backs from good ones, while receiving ability from the backfield has become increasingly valuable in the modern NFL.

Brian Westbrook wins this head to head comparison decisively — 5 categories to 1. The 355.6% gap in Rush Touchdowns alone makes a compelling case, but the consistency across multiple categories confirms Brian Westbrook's statistical superiority in this NFL career comparison.
