As it turns out, Murray has taken the first four games of the 2014 season to remind people that he is on the short list of the best running backs in the NFL when he is right.
Murray is the leading rusher in the NFL by a comfortable margin and already has five touchdowns on the season. He possesses a unique combination of agility and power, showing the ability to make guys miss or run them over to get extra yards.
It is mostly the ability to juke that was on display on Murray’s second touchdown of the night as the Dallas Cowboys stretched out their lead against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday night.
Running behind an offensive line that has been outstanding so far, Murray has been as dominant as any player in football. If he keeps this up and stays healthy, that could make the Cowboys one of the most dangerous offenses in the NFL this season.
