Andre Williams should be getting stronger consideration than he is.  He has no passing game to keep defenses honest (he's averaging more rushing yards than his team is passing yards), and everyone knows he's getting the ball, yet he still keeps racking up the yards.  From a team success standpoint, BC has very much overachieved this year and he has to be given credit for that.  Also, unlike a quarterback, when he gets the ball he doesn't have any options, he can't dump it off to a guy behind the line of scrimmage or scramble and throw it away if things don't look good.  He has one option, run.  And he's doing it way better than anyone else this year.  When you compare the QB's, a few of them have similar numbers which is why there is still debate.  When you compare Williams to the next RB he's averaging nearly 35 yards more per game.  When you consider that the new wave of offenses have inflated the numbers QB's are putting up, I'm way more impressed with what he's done this year than anyone else.
