Slo, MrBob, Eznark, and Kastrioti.
NFC North Brotherhood
i'll say the jets win 13-7, Bills are awful too, Sanchez goes for 17-28 with 180 yards and 1 sack fumble.

MrBob sounds like a Pokemon name.
Maybe I should scrap the Barkley = Ryan and go with Barkley = Flacoo. I'm sorry Falcons fans
Impossible! I honestly don't think he'll be horrible, I think he can be pretty good given some weapons around him.

If Barkley = Ryan then I'm sure whatever team drafted him would be more than happy with that result.
I will admit I don't watch much college football, but who was the last USC QB that wasn't a failure?
His picks aren't going to be half as funny if you can't cut to Tebow looking glum on the sidelines.
Maybe the Jets can trade for Alex Smith.
Don't cross the threads, Luke.

Nothing is more shameful than the Patriots losing to Sanchez in the playoffs after beating them up in the regular season. I was even pulling for the Pats to win that game!
Carson Palmer!

Jets have been cursed ever since.
Ok, I guess we need to define what is meant by failure. Carson was drafted pretty highly yet has never really been much more than an average QB to me.

Interesting, perhaps we'll see some more Boykin action?Cobb not in pads today.
It's true, I guess I should be thankful for that.
From pro football focus:
Race for ROTY
1. Russell Wilson, QB, SEA (+33.1)
I remember talking about Wilson with Neil Hornsby during preseason. He came away convinced he was pretty special, to which my cynical response was lets see how he would do during the regular season. Well, the cynic in me dies a little every time I see Wilson, instead Im stunned by his play. He was superb against San Francisco and his form, especially in the second half of the year, makes a mockery of the fact 74 players were taken ahead of him in any draft class. There arent 74 players in the league Id take over him.
2. Robert Griffin III, QB, WAS (+31.8)
This week RG3 attempted only 24 passes, yet his adjusted accuracy percentage of 95% should tell you how on target he was. A good performance with him not really testing the Eagles secondary, and with Wilson playing so well he drops from the top spot for the first time. Play well and win against Dallas though and it will take some performance to keep him from the top spot.
3. Andrew Luck, QB, IND (+3.5)
The Chiefs defense is no pushover, so it should probably relieve a lot of Colts fans that its the best Luck has played for quite some time. His accuracy still concerns me, but Im looking forward to seeing him in the playoffs.

I wonder if they're just being cautious with the playoffs coming up/potential extra week of rest.Cobb not in pads today.
Cobb, Jones, Nelson, and Jennings all healthy for a playoff run - I'm ok with this.

Barkley has better accuracy and throws a nicer deep ball than Sanchez. Don't know if that will translate to the pros (if his pocket presence against pressure is as bad as Mark, it won't) but I think he's a better prospect.
You are forgetting about Superbowl champ™ Rob Johnson - the thinking man's Trent Dilfer!
how does he react to peripheral movement and not react to a large ass he's staring directly at?
And a world where all he throws is fucking bubble screens all day and still manages to get intercepted. He should have 75%+ completion percentage.

He forgot to move his vision cone.
That Super Bowl was fraudulent. At least that's what rors told me.
The beauty of games like Oregon Trail and Carmen Sandiego was that you learned shit without realizing it.

As much as it pains me, that one was legit, the ones before and after it on the other hand...
I'm obviously biased but I think Barkley will be better. Comparing him to Sanchez is as lazy as comparing black quarterbacks to each other just because they're black.
Barkley has been a starter for 4 years and has shown much more leadership and maturity in college. I think one of his biggest problems is that Lane Kiffin is a shitty head coach and and even shittier offensive coordinator/play caller. With some better coaching in the pros I think Barkley can improve on some of his deficiencies.
Carson Palmer? He had better numbers while with the Bengals than Eli Manning had during the same time span.

You shouldn't be eligible if your team has 4 wins.
How about 5?
His stats are meaningless though. Gruden agrees.

OPOY finishing 4th in the division. No thanks.

Rigged league confirm...
They didn't want to affect the playoffs, so they let him slide.
AD has helped his team much more than Calvin has. Garbage time stats don't matter. Also, Lions GAF has taught me that the only reason Calvin is good is because of the great play by Stafford. AD has nobody playing QB. I think they just leave the roster spot empty IIRC.

Lions D has given up most point in the NFC, so what does that has to do with CJ winning OPOY?
You disappoint me Rors. You sound like someone who sees one national game and think that's what the QB is all about. I won't blame you, I will just blame it on your frustration with Greg Knapp which I can relate to all too well.
Thats a BS argument, give the man MVP! How can you be considered for MVP last year when your team was winning, but this year do better and not even mentioned? Logically speaking his team got worse and he got better which makes him even more valuable. It is what it is but fuck it, just make individual awards for sets of positions.
Yes, because CJ is assisted by a great running game?
AD fullback made the starting pro-bowl. He has 5 guys in front of him making holes from him.
How in the world CJ has garbage stats? Stupidest thing i have read.
You guys are nothing without Knapp. You should hire him back.
He has the best QB in the league throwing to him. We've seen good QBs make average WRs look great before. This is just another example. AD has 8 or 9 guys in the box every play. He has to work for his yards.
Allegedly. It never went to court or anything.
I remember it because there were helicopters all around campus the night that all supposedly went down.
He didn't really play much in college. He was a starter for only 1 full season.
All superbowls are fraudulent just ask Eagles fans.
