    Cam doesn't get nearly the respect he deserves. With everyone chomping at the bit to say Luck has no one around him, I'm curious to see if they give Cam the same respect this year. (Spoiler: they haven't and they won't.)

    stafford @ 5?!?! even if fantasy football (two words that don't belong in this thread) was one of the factors to judge QBs, that guy is nowhere near that tier of QBs :lol:

    No run game? Reggie And joique combined for like 1600 last year

    and im talkin about the 5k yard year. Got him in like the 10th rd. My team was so stacked. Cool dude too. Golfed with him on 2 occasions.


    I hate andrew luck. Never truat anyone with mutton chops

    Also sounds like it will be an annoying gameplay feature

    I look forward to another solid season from Ben. I think the improved oline and run game should greatly benefit if he stays healthy

    Yeah you are right, I guess a better word would have been a "better" run game instead of no run game. Felt like Bush and Bell weren't that great last year because I had both of them on my fantasy roster and they weren't that consistent.

    Coaching and play selection killed Stafford last year.

    He's defnatly top 10 QB. Eli not so much.

    I've never been a fan of Eli. When throws a pic and does that big baby pouting face like he didn't just launch a duck >:

    I also hate the fact that he lucked up and got two rings while my boy Rivers won't sniff one :smh:

    It'd be cool to see rivers get one and then the 04 class all has one

    What's even more messed up in my opinion is that he has more rings than Peyton.

    All the guys that have one and Dan doesn't. Nobody could throw the ball like him. How did he and Shula never get one together?!

    I was watching the ESPY , I was telling my wife that I bet Marino is so pissed about all the new quarterbacks breaking his records when he was the greatest pure quarterback talent ever

    Luckily most seem to understand what 5k back then meant vs now. His 84 season is still the GOAT QB season IMO

    85, 86, 87, 88, 89 First Round picks.

    The most horrible 5 year stretch in NFL history. Completely wasted Marino's prime. Atrocious.

    Jimmy in 3 drafts pulled Gardener, Zach Thomas, Jason Taylor, Derrick Rodgers, Sam Madison, and Patrick Surtain. On top of Abdul Jabar, and signing T Buckley, Brock Marion, and Trace Armstrong.

    By then Dan was at the end and it was too late. :smh:

    Shula shoulda been brought up on charges for those drafts.

    As a fan of the NFL in general, I kind of want to see how good Luck can be if he can just stop turning the ball over so many times. I wish he would take off every now and then too because he's got great athleticism that no one really acknowledges because he's white.

    As a Texans fan though, he can go ahead and chill :lol:

    John Offerdahl was a great pick for the Dolphins, the other draft picks from that time were not great

    Those 1,100 yard years with 10+ TD's with prime Dan would have spelled doom for opposing D's. Not 96-97 Dan.
