Hardly. Look at the TD totals.

Also It's convenient that you chose the last 2 years. In which the former Arian only played a couple games.

Even if you look at this year's totals alone, Charles had only 149 less yards than Foster on 97 less carries. The TD totals are irrelevant because whenever the Chiefs got close to the end zone they would bring Thomas Jones in to finish off the drive. Foster had 10 TD's last year of three yards or less so there's where the difference in touchdown's comes.

Charles is too high. He didn't even lead his team in carries last year.

I think it should be
1. AP
2. Chris Johnson
3. Stephen Jackson
4. MJD
5. Jamaal Charles

Not ready to but Foster in my top 5 yet because he only had 1 great year.

When did carries become a more relevant stat than yards? He came within two-hundredths of breaking Jim Brown's record for per carry average last year. If anything the fact that he didn't lead his team in carries and still put up the year he did should make his stats even more impressive.

I would take off Jackson and put Foster in top 5 list, but Foster should be 4th over Drew Jones since he got hurts last season.

Being a Bronco fan I agree with Charles being a top 5
He's just way too sick!
