Burger King's Top 50 Players

[Wolfpack]

Its not as bad as you all think....there is a certain NFC East team that does not have ONE player listed.

 

[ABQcowboyJR]

TO is the eighth best WR in the NFL?

Riiiiiiiight.

Might not be that far from the truth. But no TNew? I question that right away.

 

[Avery]

Even Rick Reilly thinks Peter King sucks.

 

[percyhoward]

And somehow Peter King has a job as a football writer.

One of the 44 football writers who meet at some resort hotel in Florida every year to deem somebody worthy or unworthy of HOF enshrinement.

 

[AdamJT13]

A football coach can have an opinion on who the 50 best sports writers are, but it doesn't make him right or anywhere near right.

Mitch Albom should be No. 1.

Peter King around No. 250 as a sportswriter. Maybe top 200 as a food critic. (He never did say how the popcorn was.)

Skip Bayless, No. 666.

 

[Yakuza Rich]

What does being a football writer have to do with evaluating talent?


Since when do you have to know ANYTHING about football to write about football?

I'm reminded this every day.

The Cornerback rankings...

20. Champ Bailey, Broncos
25. Antoine Winfield, Vikings
45. Nnamdi Asomugha, Raiders

If Winfield and Asomugha are better than Newman, I'm Jessica Simpson. King should have his butt kicked for thinking this mess up.

Asomugha is in Newman's class.

Winfield is a good all-around player but not one of the cornerbacks when it comes to covering receivers.

Bailey isn't the best in the league unless he's picking off passes, and he had only three interceptions last season.

10. Steven Jackson, RB, Rams (30)

This is called not paying attention.

Jackson had a much worse season in 2007 than he did in 2006, and he jumps up 20 spots to No. 10 in the league?

Seriously?

12. Walter Jones, T, Seahawks (10)

Old Walt is a shell of his former self. Think Larry Allen, circa 2003.

In the past two years, Jones has allowed 16.5 sacks.

14. Julius Peppers, DE, Panthers (4)

Only 2.5 sacks in 14 games last season.

25. Antoine Winfield, CB, Vikings (31)

Other than being a physical player, he's a pretty average cornerback. One interception in 10 games last season.

30. Luis Castillo, DL, Chargers (116)

A huge leap upward for a 3-4 defensive end who had 2.5 sacks and 32 tackles last season.

I thought that kind of season got you benched?

34. Devin Hester, WR-KR, Bears (69)

What's the deal? The Bears [strike]would[/strike] should jump at the chance to trade Hester for just about any of the players 35-50 and probably another 50 after that.

49. Bob Sanders, S, Colts (196)

He moved up about 20 spots for every big play he made.

In his career.

 

[Spectre]

So Justin Tuck is better than Ed Reed? By a large margin?
GTFOH


This guys is an idiot.

Eli is the 28th best player in all the NFL?
O.K.

 

[bootsy]

Stopped reading after I saw Larry Fitzgerald ahead of T.O.

Are you kidding me Peter King?:bang2:

 

[dalboy]

how is brees #6 and Mario #8

 

[AtlCB]

How did Devin Hester make the list?

 

[Paniolo22]

:ralph:

 

[Rack]

Mitch Albom should be No. 1.

Peter King around No. 250 as a sportswriter. Maybe top 200 as a food critic. (He never did say how the popcorn was.)

Skip Bayless, No. 666.

How did Devin Hester make the list?

He's more deserving then a couple that are in the top 10 IMO.


I mean... Mario Williams at #8?

 

[NoLuv4Jerry]

somehow I think I am going to be able to tear this list apart on a daily basis....Ed Reed is BARELY on this list.....who is advising him? Ed Reed can start for me ANY DAY!!!!!!!!

 

[AdamJT13]

Ed Reed is BARELY on this list.....who is advising him? Ed Reed can start for me ANY DAY!!!!!!!!

Are you sure you know what you're getting with Reed?

Most fans who see him only on the highlights or one or two games a year would be surprised if he suddenly was traded to their team.

 

[DallasDomination]

stephen Jackson in the top 10 = All credability this pathetic excuse of a Human had went out the window witht his list.

 

[Ben_n_austin]

I'll take Romo over Rothlesberger any day.

 

[CrazyCowboy]

4 out of the top 50 is not bad.

 

[mbanx]

Peter king must have been insulted by Jerry only feeding him popcorn on Hardknocks. The fat *** should be thankful he did not get fed a dark meat chicken dinner with all the fixins. He should go to the doctor because some of the fat has transferred to his brain
