those are pretty fair if you ask me

unlike the “experts” who keep putting the Skins ahead of the Dolphins, Bills, and other such teams. In my opinion the Bucs and Rams are the two worst teams in football and they beat them by 3 and 2 respectively.

I really wish we would sign a tackle already, we need one.

In the new SI...

according to 239 NFL players, Brett Favre is the most overrated player in the NFL, followed closely by Tony Romo. Then it is Terrell Owens and Eli Manning. I would have moved Eli and Romo up a bit through. Favre is overly-“hyped” (it essentially means the same thing, except he is simply talked about more for being indecisive off the field, rather than proclaimed a superstar like Eli), but is more talented and experienced than all the others listed.

Eli might be a little overrated, but I would take him on my team right now.

No weekend spent pantsless is a wasted weekend.

i dont Eli is overrated at all

I’ve seen a lot of giants games and i would have definitely said that about him last year. However this year Eli has really taken a big step in the “Peyton” direction. He is directing his offense an delivering picture perfect throws. Another example of what you can get with a little patience in your QB.

I agree. I don’t think we should be too worried about TE right now. I think by the end of the season, if he can stay healthy, we will have seen great development.

Only if his o-line resembles a NFL caliber o-line at some point.

Agree.

Even a Division I caliber line would be nice at this point but that goes along with the Bell getting healthy.

they like the Mannings. A lot.

as do I – i’d take any one of those 2 right now.

I am so clever that sometimes I don’t understand a single word of what I am saying
Trent Edwards - Backup QB until furthur notice. Care to prove me wrong Trent?

hell, i’d take Olivia or Cooper right about now. I wonder if they have any pets who can catch a ball?

by thejimbo on Oct 7, 2009 5:03 PM EDT up reply actions

I'd take about 20-22 other QB's right now

And that might be me being kind

I guess we'd better win this Sunday . . .

. . . or we slip to the Browns current spot.

by Applsoss on Oct 7, 2009 5:58 PM EDT reply actions

I, personally, did not rank the Browns that low. I put Oakland at No. 32 – seriously, JaMarcus Russell is completing less than 40% of his passes and has a QB rating of 42.4, but Al Davis won’t let Tom Cable bench him. No franchise is going nowhere faster than the Raiders.
