C.J. Anderson vs Devontae Booker Career Stats Comparison

This is as close as it gets. C.J. Anderson and Devontae Booker split the statistical categories evenly — 3 apiece — making this one of the most genuinely contested RB comparisons in NFL history. When the numbers are this balanced, the debate comes down to which statistics matter most to you.

C.J. Anderson's Rush Touchdowns of 22 compared to Devontae Booker's 11 represents a 100% advantage — dramatically better than their counterpart in this critical category. Devontae Booker falls 72.5% below the career average of 40 in this category while C.J. Anderson exceeds it. It is the single most decisive number in this comparison and the clearest statistical argument for C.J. Anderson's edge.

The most competitive category in this matchup is Yards Per Carry, where C.J. Anderson posts 4.5 against Devontae Booker's 4.0 — a gap of just 12.5%. Devontae Booker can point to this as evidence that the overall comparison is closer than the final 3-3 tally suggests. In any debate, Yards Per Carry is the statistical ammunition for the Devontae Booker 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.

With categories split evenly, this comparison ultimately comes down to which statistics matter most to you. C.J. Anderson claims the tiebreaker through Rush Touchdowns advantage — a 100% edge — but reasonable people can, and do, argue both sides of this NFL debate.
