DOOM and Hali were both drafted in 06 and DOOM has more career sacks than Hali, DESPITE missing an entire season and playing the whole 2008 season with a broken bone in his hand.

The little fella thought Denver was a Super Bowl contender last year. No wonder he only watched 4 games ROFL

He's had injury problems his whole career, that's probably why he was ranked so low. And it is "what have you done for me lately league" like it or not. Elvis was injured most of last year, so he's a question mark coming into this year. The why he's so much lower than Tamba, who had a monster 2010.

That said, when healthy, Elvis is a top notch DE, at least he certainly was in 2009. If his 2011 season comes close to 2009, he'll be back in the top 10. Though he still won't be higher than Tamba :p.

Maybe I’m alone in this opinion, but I think Philip Rivers is wildly overrated.

Exhibit A: His career playoff record is 3-4.

Exhibit B: He has never played in a Super Bowl.

Exhibit C: His career playoff stats are as follows:

Game 1 (Loss, 24-21 vs. New England): 14-32, 230 YD, 0 TD, 1 INT.

Game 2 (Win, 17-6 vs. Tennessee): 19-30, 292 YD, 1TD, 1 INT.

Game 3 (Win, 28-24 vs. Indianapolis): 14-19, 264 YD, 3 TD, 1 INT.

Game 4 (Loss, 21-12 vs. New England): 19-37, 211 YD, 0 TD, 2 INT.

Game 5 (Win, 23-17 vs. Indianapolis): 20-36, 217 YD, 0 TD, 1 INT.

Game 6 (Loss, 35-24 vs. Pittsburgh): 21-35, 308 YD, 3 TD, 1 INT.

Game 7 (Loss, 17-14 vs. NYJ): 27-40, 298 YD, 1 TD, 2 INT.

For those scoring at home, that’s at best three solid performances in seven postseason games.

The prosecution rests.

He has lost to Brady twice, Rothlisberger once in the playoffs. He has beaten Manning twice. He loses to the guys who are actually better than him, big suprise there when it comes to the playoffs.

How many games did he fail to lead the Pack to a win when it was his interceptions that put his team in position to lose?

Most of his playoff games through his career are interception fests, and he's had a couple in which he's actually played pretty well, but has made boneheaded interceptions that lost games for the Pack.

I certainly wouldn't put Favre ahead of Montana or Brady on my list of Best QB's, but I still think I'd put him ahead of Manning and Marino and pretty much everyone that fits in the category of "Great Regular Season QB, not so so great Post Season QB. Except maybe Tarkenton, that guy looked like a hoss.

So Sanchez is already better than him? :hmmm:

Other than that the point is quite valid though. Taking down Manning in back to back years was impressive.

He has missed 14 games over the last two years.

For a linemen, one of the biggest factors is reliability...so he obviously lost stock due to that factor.

If he hadn't missed any games, he would be borderline and I don't think he'd make it. It'd be close.

If we can't land one of the premier right tackles, I'd be ok with giving him a 2 year deal and let him compete with Barry Richardson (who I'm not a big fan of. I think one of his missed blocks will ultimately put Stanzi on the field too soon)

Tarkenton was a lot like Donavan McNabb in that he made a lot of plays during the regular season, but he was far less effective in the post season, even while it appears he put up decent numbers.

He was more mobile than McNabb, but he struggled making plays against good defenses, when it counted.

Edit:I'd put Manning ahead of Favre, but they would be right there with each other.

Where do you put Otto Graham?

Too young to remember Graham, so I can't forward any opinion on him.

Exhibit C: His career playoff stats are as follows:

Game 1 (Loss, 24-21 vs. New England): 14-32, 230 YD, 0 TD, 1 INT.
Suffered lisfranc injury in week 17 and didn't practice during bye week; played meh-ly.

Game 2 (Win, 17-6 vs. Tennessee): 19-30, 292 YD, 1TD, 1 INT.
Sprained MCL late in season. First half played poorly; second half well.

Game 3 (Win, 28-24 vs. Indianapolis): 14-19, 264 YD, 3 TD, 1 INT.
Played great. Tears ACL last play of 3rd quarter.

Game 4 (Loss, 21-12 vs. New England): 19-37, 211 YD, 0 TD, 2 INT.
Played very well, but the stats are garbage. Couldve possibly turned one of the FGs into a TD if he saw that VJ was open and a bad forced INT immediately after Vrabel's BS uncalled personal foul trip that turned into an INT (thanks for the effort Chris Chambers).

Game 5 (Win, 23-17 vs. Indianapolis): 20-36, 217 YD, 0 TD, 1 INT.
Below average game.

Game 6 (Loss, 35-24 vs. Pittsburgh): 21-35, 308 YD, 3 TD, 1 INT.
Played well. SD ran one offensive play in the 3rd quarter. Tipped ball at the line is intercepted.

Game 7 (Loss, 17-14 vs. NYJ): 27-40, 298 YD, 1 TD, 2 INT.
Played average until back-breaking INT late.

For those scoring at home, that’s at best three solid performances in seven postseason games.

The prosecution rests.

Added my impressions of his performances above.

He's played pretty well in the postseason; he just needs to stay healthy (Gates healthy would be nice too) and not having a bunch choking, idiot teammates (Kaeding, McCree, VJ, Cromartie et al.) would be nice too.

I'm sure he was left off because he's pretty much guaranteed to not be a Bronco come training camp.

If that were the case, Asomuagha would have been left off.

TJ ALWAYS gets his ass kissed by the media. I just don't get it. He was absolutely HORRIBLE the last 8 games of the season. Worst performer on our team IMO.

:deevee:

It's a list of who is better NOW.

Not who WAS better in 2009.

Hali did have 15 ****ing sacks last season, and countless pressures.
If Houston is what I think he is, Hali is going to be an absolute terror.
Maybe Dumberville will have healed up by next season........Maybe.
