Eric Dickerson expects to hold onto the NFL's single-season rushing record for at least another year. In an interview with the Los Angeles Times Dickerson said he doesn't expect Saquon Barkley to break his record—and he doesn't want him to do it either.
Barkley is sitting at 1,838 rushing yards through 15 games. Dickerson had 2,007 yards after 15 games in 1984, which was good enough to break O.J. Simpson's previous record of 2,003 yards. Dickerson finished with 2,105 rushing yards, which is now the official record despite the fact that it took two more games than Simpson played in the 1973 season.
