Who knows if we're specifically talking about goal line on 4th down but we do know that last year he was their best RB inside the 5. It's why he had 5 rushing TDs.
* if you can;t accurately describe a player's relevant skill set and how and in what ways it offers advantages or disadvantages you're not being objective
And if you can't quantify what you're talking about, it's subjective, not objective. If you want to provide a way to measure "Speed, explosion or GREAT contact balance", maybe there's a discussion to be had. For example, what is Henderson's contact balance compared to Ezekiel Elliot's?

* if you don't look at gamelogs and instead just look at raw unexamined averages you're not being objective
Actually, that is exactly what that is. As long as one is comparing like stats, it's perfectly objective. Perhaps not thorough, invasive or contextual enough, but it is objective.

* if you don't account for your own tendency to either be a homer or an automatic skeptic or a switcher/realist you;re not being objective
No, being biased isn't being objective. So...?
