Oh so I'm suppose to just send QBs and S now?

[Giantsfan1080]

That's correct.

1) Aaron Rodgers, Brady is on the downside of his career, in his prime, he would lead this list but not now.
2) Tom Brady, still very dangerous but now a notch below Rodgers.
3) Drew Brees, pretty close between the top 3 anyways.
4) Eli Manning, 2 rings from a QB who is extremely tough in close games.
5) Ben Rothlisberger, 2 rings from an offense that now lacks offensive might.
6) Peyton Manning, who is he now, until he answers that question, it is hard to put him any higher. He is clearly on the downside of his career and could easily prove to be less than what he once was.
7) Matt Stafford, has a very good shot at matching Rodgers career but people still think of Detroit as well 'Detroit'. They are however, a serious threat to win the Super Bowl next year.
8) Cam Newton, his career is all ahead of him and he could top this list in a few years but he isn't there just yet.
9) Michael Vick, IMO, I will want to see this year whether or not he is still the same quality player he once was. I think he has lost a step but he is certainly able to prove me wrong if he still can.
10) Phillip Rivers, he plays for a rotten HC but he got his wish and the team retained Norv Turner after Rivers fought hard to keep him. He is quite capable of ranking much higher on this list but I doubt he ever makes it as long as Turner is his HC.
11) Tony Romo, I only list him to make a point. He is the most overrated QB in the NFL and will never lead Dallas to even the playoffs. If leadership and performance in clutch situations, are the most important qualities of a QB, Romo scores at the bottom of the NFL starting QB's and isn't even deserving of the #11 spot.

Sent my PM in.

[Giantsfan1080]

Yea I'm going to release them Friday night and then we have the weekend to discuss everything. So far we're getting a decent amount of lists but some of the big hitters haven't sent anything yet. I think it's good to leave this open for 3 or 4 days so we have enough time for everyone to send a list in.

[WCH]

I sent my QB list, but I didn't do S. I think that position is just damn near impossible for fans to evaluate.

In all fairness, you had 6 posts at the time of my original thread post in Oct and 55 when it was brought up again in May. Not to mention about 80% of your posts are pictures, I'm sorry you took offense to my selective approach but try to prove your posts have some substance before you rip it.

[Bulldogs]

Sent in my QB list this morning, I'll have my S one in by Friday.

Is it trolling if it's true?


And I'd really like to believe I'm going to submit these lists, I really would, but...I'm lazy. I'll try.

I typed up my answers to BeerBaron's Offseason PM. I still have it saved on my desktop. Did I send it to him? No. Did I post it in the thread? No.

If being lazy was a sport, I'd be MVP.

[Giantsfan1080]

A top 10 list takes 5 minutes. Come on do it.

I've always got **** to do. But there are times in which I'm just on a roll and will keep doing **** once the work is gone, as I did with those questions from BB.

Working on Safety right now. I'm having a difficult time coming up with a top 10. It should be interesting to see what everybody comes up with.

yes, it was a joke. i thought the tyrannosaur was a pretty good indication that the post was intended to be humorous.

i don't take offense to your exclusionary approach, but you have to admit that calling it "NFLDC Positional Top 10 Lists" when you exclude more than 90% of the people on the boards is a bit silly. :D

as for the pictures i post, when there's as much discussion going on in "The Funny Picture Thread" as there is, you need as many funny picture posters as you can get!

anyway, should we post our lists in this thread as well so we can all ridicule each others crappy picks or keep it strictly PM?

[Giantsfan1080]

Please PM the lists. Any list that isn't a PM will NOT count.

[vidae]

I sent mine in! Boosh!

[BaLLiN]

Off of last year:

QB
1. Tom Brady
2. Aaron Rodgers
3. Eli Manning
4. Drew Brees
5. Peyton Manning*
6. Matt Stafford
7. Cam Newton
8. Ben Roethlisberger
9. Tony Romo
10. Michael Vick

Please hate all you want, Tom Brady > Rodgers and it showed when teams began to play them man up where Rodgers wasn't as accurate to the sideline. Brady was working with very little at receiver but two very good TE's. Eli, whether people want to admit it or not, was a top 5 QB last year, and while Brees was great, he really showed his limitations as a passer versus San Fran.

[WCH]

Edit: never mind.

[Giantsfan1080]

We're doing pretty well so far with a lot more lists coming in on QB over S.

[tjsunstein]

I think I know where this is going with Rodgers vs. Brady. Ugh, gotta get my fingers ready.
