-Russell Westbrook is overrated
-Best QB in the NFL right now is Aaron Rodgers
-Every BCS championship team in the last 10 years is dirty, it's a matter of who's smart enough not to get caught. For that matter, 90% of teams in BCS conferences probably are.

Idk..that 2000 Ravens defense IMO was...Originally Posted by itsaboutthattime
if given the choice of any RB in history, i would take marshall faulk
michael irvin was more valuable to those 90s cowboys' teams than emmitt smith
emmitt just makes my top 5 RBs all-time (i'd take faulk, sanders, payton and jim brown over him.. imagine faulk or sanders behind that dallas Oline)
brett favre ranks behind the following all-time for me (in no specific order): steve young, montana, elway, peyton manning, tom brady, troy aikman and marino is borderline
tim duncan ranks higher than kobe all-time (presently)
not even being a homer, 1991 eagles are/were the greatest defense ever:

Be specific...
Each year Baseball America polls every manager in the Majors and asks them who they think has the best tools. The Orioles were able to notch two mentions in the lists with Matt Wieters being named the best defensive catcher and Adam Jones noted as the second best defensive outfielder in the American League.
Adam Jones' defense has been a point of ridicule ALL season amongst O's fans. I've seen charts, stats, graphs, etc that all illustrate how horrid he is defensively. These stats are all advanced. You poll the managers and they can give 2 !*+@% about these stats. They go off of what they see as opposed to what a graph would tell them about how Jones tracks baseballs when the wind is between 8-12 knots. These managers have these stats at their disposal, but honestly...I think AT TIMES, intuition and observation can be a greater measure of talent/ability than what some ridiculous advanced stat may say.
just my .02
