overrated? that's easy. Tom Brady! ....... kidding

there are a few special people that are really overrated in the NFL, such as :

-brett favre : yes he is overrated. yeah yeah he won 1 super bowl, but that was against a bill parcells coached patriots team, and he wasn't considered the MVP of the super bowl! desmond howard stole the trophy away from him)
-Michael Vick : enough said. we can all say wow about his running ability, but we still have to remember he's a quarterback, and we know qb's for their arms, not their legs.
-Jerome Bettis : yeah he's retired. we all know he's overrated. he goes 3 yards and falls down.
-Lamont Jordan : people really wrote high expectations for this guy when he left the jets. they thought he was the next big thing. well some guy named justin fargas stole the job from him.

gotta disagree with ya Butters on Jerome Bettis. He was built as a short yardage back and he was more than amazing at it. His career lasted about 5 years longer than most short-yardages backs, and he always came up huge when his team needed him.

Also I just like the guy

Funny because the 3 guys I mentioned to Vern last night were Favre, Vick, and Bettis. So we agree!



Bettis definitely sucks. Sorry. 2 yards and a pile of dirt. Short yardage. Oooooh. Wow so exciting. He gets the tough one yard. What a stud. And Bettis was drafted by the Rams and I don't like him.

fair enough.

next question:

Which will happen first:

Vick takes the Falcons to a superbowl (not necessarily winning it but just taking)

or

Vick gets traded or signs someplace else.

I also still can't believe he flicked off all those ppl on his home field. Bye bye endorsements.

Over-rated... in the last ten years... I think Warren Sapp should be included... he had like ONE good/great year... and he rode that for the rest of his career...

Plaxico Burress SHOULD be included... but he's never had any hype or played WELL enough to ever be considered to be over-rated... he just PLAIN SUCKS... so I'd give it to him if SOMEONE actually thought he was good...

It just brings a smile to my face seeing I'm not the only one who KNOWS the Bus was a waste of space... we just need to get CBS to realize he's fuckin over-rated and boot his ass off the TELEVISION!!!

and I've always been of the mindset that Vick is not over-rated, only because the guy rushes for 900+ yds a season... and win or no winning, thats sick...

talk about going back to their old bad luck ways earlier than i expected. first, drew brees dislocates his elbow during the Pro Bowl game, now Reggie Bush hurts his ankle during the celebrity charity basketball game on friday. welcome to the world of saints-land guys! last year was some kind of fluke. saints are seriously just one walking bad luck machine.

What the fuck are the Bears doing!

Trade Thomas Jones for a low draft pick? Piss Lance Briggs off so much by being cheap so that now he refuses to play for the organisation again? Just wow!

Way to make another run at the SB!

da bears...

I expect it from the Chargers, but the bears acting like meatheads... kind of surprises me...

Briggs is smart though, why stay in Chicago where he'll always in Urlacher's shadow...

well the more I read about it, the Bears have their hands tied. Jones asked for a trade, but wow, the JEts sure got the better end of that!

And Briggs refused a 6 year, 33 million deal last year. Somebody told me he can't go anywhere else and will forfeit a large part of his salary if he sits out so he'll probably play.

I know NFL players are notorious for greed and immaturity, but something about the Bears front office pisses a lot of people off.....
