Most Overated Player in the NFL

[adamknite]

Easily Bob Sanders.

 

[Plankton]

Brian Urlacher has had this title for three years.

 

[Avery]

Darelle Revis - He is not the best CB of all time as everyone claims, therefor overrated.

Peyton Manning - Not in the discussion for best QB of all time and many claim he is, therefor overrated.

Tom Brady - Not a top 20 QB of all time let alone top 10 or 5, therefor overrated.

Eli Manning - one of the Best oline in the NFL, always had capable WR's and a dominant running game and dominant defense, and people consider him a top 10 QB in the NFL, (sounds like mark sanchez nowadays doesnt it?) therefor overrated.

Adrian Peterson - Fumbles and loses your more games then he wins you.

I'll give you 1.5 out of 5 points here.

I don't recall anyone here are on the forum saying he's the best CB of all-time based off of what he's done so far; best CB in the NFL right now, yes, but unless he continues to excel for another ten years at similar levels, he's not top ten all-time.

Manning is one of the greats; I wouldn't put him as the GOAT, but to say he's overrated is a bit harsh.

What 19 QB's would you take over Brady? I could see maybe ten or so objectively, but the guy is a winner plain and simple.

Eli is overrated - this one you're correct on.

The half-point is for AP. I think he's a great RB in the league right now but I think he's also someone who is prone to injury as well as has major issues holding on to the ball. He's overrated in the sense that he's not a prodigy as some made him out to be, but he's a top five back in the league and someone that 31 other teams would love to have on their roster.

 

[Doomsday]

I would have to go with Chad Johnson.

 

[HoosierCowboy]

anyone who says Bob Sanders is ignorant--he's been hurt but is a dominant palyer when healthy--my vote is Eli manning

 

[ROMOSAPIEN9]

+3...

It's always just +1 yeags

 

[jason54858]

My list goes

Brett Farve
Marion Barber
Chad Johnson
Roy Williams (WR) - the fact there are some fans who belive there is a chance this guy will be good for our team makes him overated.

 

[TheCount]

Maybe CJ - other than that, you're nuts.

Steven Jackson is a beast as well, if he were younger I might be harder i wouldn't mind either one.

Ever watch ESBN? Ever talk to a jets fan, because every argument goes like this "x and x on the cowboys is excelling will become a great player" "Darelle Revis is the best CB in the NFLs history" "I didnt even bring up a CB and no he is not" "yes he is".

There idiots.

Second; Im saying Peyton is a great QB, but he is overrated when people say he is the GOAT.

on Brady: Maybe so, but he is certainly not a top ten and people consistently say he is a top 6-8 QB, and newer fans who not as genius as R2A say he is a top 3-5 of all time after Manning and Favre which is most certaintly not the case.

Half-point my buttocks; AP is a top 7 back in the league, not the best back in the league as people say.

 

[jason54858]

And for the guys saying Vince Young, Steven Jackson, Bob Sanders (when healthy), Darelle Revis, Peyton Manning, and Tom Brady are overated are crazy. You people would wet your pants to have any of these players playing for the Cowboys.

I don't think anyone would wet their pants for Vince Young.

I've never seen anyone say Revis is the best of all time. If he continued his high level play, maybe. Best right now? Probably. He can do it all.

 

[Tricericon]

Have to say former Oklahoma Sooner and current Vikings RB, Adrian Peterson. He was great in college and in his rookie year but has peaked already and also has fumbilitis. We bottled him up good in the playoffs.

This.

go on a NYJ forum, or speak to anyone wearing NYJ gear. I live in NY, I hear it every single day. Although Mike Jenkins being the 4th best CB in the NFL when thrown against according to opposing QB Ratings usually shuts them up after I say but the Cowboys overall CB package was better than yours and they say you have no good CBs and I say Mike Jenkins and T-new is better than Revis and Sheppard as a whole package. Sadly now with Cromartie as a Jet they no longer shut the hell up. So I have to go to QBs and it ends with them saying "but romo is a ***/homo" and then I feel happy since I won and its all over.

did you watch what Revis did last season? he had one of the best single seasons for a cb ever.

Ya........I live in NY as well and not only do I NOT hear that everyday, I have NEVER ONCE heard a Jets fan say he is the best of all time. Do you really wanna go down this road again......... and get abused all over again?

 

[Seven]

Adrian Peterson. Fumble-master with impeccible timing. I wouldn't trust him with the game on the line and that is a complete waste of the position. JMO, of course.

Heck, Revis wasn't even the best <last season> -- Charles Woodson was. Yes, Woodson isn't the pure cover man Revis is, but heck, Woodson gets lot of INTs, Forced Fumbles, Fumble Recoveries, sacks, and even is a very good tackler.

Woodson was better last season.
