Alfred Morris Chasing Two More Washington Redskins Records in Week 17 | Bleacher Report

*He is currently tied with Hall of Famer Charley Taylor. The running back turned wide receiver set the mark in 1964.

*Now Morris has a bigger franchise landmark in sight. He is 104 yards short of the Redskins record for rushing yards in a season.The current record is held by Clinton Portis. He rushed for 1,516 yards in 2005, helping push the Redskins into the playoffs.

Morris has a good chance to beat that mark, based on the last time he played the Cowboys. In Week 12's 38-31 win in Dallas, Morris powered his way for 113 yards on 24 carries.

He averaged 4.7 yards a carry and scored on a 1-yard run. Morris has a strong chance to repeat those numbers against the Cowboys' 17th-ranked run defense.

I should have given this its own thread. Anyway, Congrats Morris!!!!
