Answer :

Let's analyze each of the statements based on the provided statistics:

1. Dante Ferris is the best wide receiver in the league.
- This statement cannot be validated solely based on the given stats. It requires more contextual information about other players in the league and additional performance metrics. Thus, it demonstrates bias, as it makes a subjective judgment without complete data.

2. Anthony Hall has more receptions than CJ Ramirez.
- Checking the stats:
- Anthony Hall: 97 receptions
- CJ Ramirez: 89 receptions
- Therefore, Anthony Hall indeed has more receptions than CJ Ramirez. This statement is factually correct and does not demonstrate bias.

3. Anthony Hall has the fewest number of touchdowns.
- Checking the stats:
- Anthony Hall: 10 touchdowns
- Dante Ferris: 13 touchdowns
- CJ Ramirez: 12 touchdowns
- Anthony Hall has the fewest touchdowns among the three players. This statement is factually correct and does not demonstrate bias.

4. CJ Ramirez is the worst of these three players.
- This is a subjective statement that would require a comprehensive analysis of various performance metrics and player roles. Based on the given statistics, it's not possible to conclude this definitively. Thus, this statement demonstrates bias as it makes a subjective claim without sufficient evidence.

5. Dante Ferris has the most receptions and touchdowns.
- Checking the stats:
- Receptions: Dante Ferris (104), Anthony Hall (97), CJ Ramirez (89)
- Touchdowns: Dante Ferris (13), Anthony Hall (10), CJ Ramirez (12)
- Dante Ferris indeed has the most receptions and the most touchdowns. This statement is factually correct and does not demonstrate bias.

6. CJ Ramirez ran for more yards than either Ferris or Hall.
- Checking the stats:
- Yards: CJ Ramirez (1519), Dante Ferris (1404), Anthony Hall (1305)
- CJ Ramirez ran for more yards than both Ferris and Hall. This statement is factually correct and does not demonstrate bias.

Based on this analysis, the two statements that best demonstrate bias are:
1. Dante Ferris is the best wide receiver in the league.
4. CJ Ramirez is the worst of these three players.
