I passed for over 5000 yrds, 30 tds, only 2 ints, had a perfect QB rating, was Super Bowl MVP, NFL's Man Of The Year, and won the Nobel Peace Prize, last year, all while I was raising two handicapped children as a single father....yet no one has ever heard of me. So, I'd say I was very underrated.
under rated = reggie wayne (big name, but never really mentioned with the best...when imo he has the ball skills and hands...and footwork of the best) over rated = tony romo
Overrated--Hayensworth Underrated--Frank Gore IDK maybe its the region I am in, but you never hear about Gore much...
I like 85.....yeah he is loud, he has good numbers though to back it up....with an ever decreasing QB.....
I hope that is true only for the sake of your post, it would be rather classless if it were not true. On the other hand, if that's true, she could be very good for team morale!
Overrated- Revis. I don't have time,you pull up his numbers. He's a product of their blitz crazy schemes. Marion Barber is the other. Underrated- Donald Driver. Always playing second fiddle to someone else,he's not a #1,not fast enough,too old. How many pro-Bowls has he been to? Yet,look at these numbers... How many Dolphins receivers have had consecutive 1000 yard seasons like him? http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/4863/career;_ylt=AnrqXMyYD.IIcATwBCg7GLr.uLYF Chester Taylor is another.Just goes from team to team and put's up very good numbers as a #2. Jonathan Stewart-Just look at Fantasy boards everywhere.Williams gets all the love and Stewart's numbers are close to his. I don't get it......
Wow...that's surprising...He has a great press guy that keeps him in the public eye, almost to the point of nausea, but he certainly backs up everything on the field...That team doesn't win 8 games without him...
Overrated: Shonn Greene. Top 10 fantasy player? Top 10 RB? I just don't see it. He hasn't done it yet. For him to unseat TJ after one year of backing him up I think he's overrated. Overhyped: Mark Sanchez. Watch MNF when the Jest play. Listen to Ron Jaworski. ?????. Vomit. I think he's not rated high. It's his potential that is. Thus it's the hype. Underrated: I wanted to say Polite but I won't let the homer in me release. I love the Donald Driver selection earlier. But I think I'm going with Ahmad Bradshaw. I loved him when I saw him play in 2008. Now he's finally getting his chance.
underrated - steven jackson, playing in bad st. louis but quietly the 2nd best rusher behind chris johnson last year, always running hard overrated - NY JESTS
overrated= alan faneca underrated= tony romo(most people will disagree but i watch cowboy games alot and why anyone wants jason garrett as a head coach as of now i do not understand. romo does a good job given the circumstances.
Underrated : Terrance knighton, derrick harvey, mike devito, vernon gholston, tyvon branch, jermichael finley, jahvid best, ahmad bradshaw, stewart bradley,vince young,jason jones overrated: Brett favre, sam baker, brandon jacobs, clint sintim, mark sanchez
Its impossible to underrate a player who has done nothing in the NFL. You must be going purely on potential, and projections with those 2. I respect your opinion, but I disagree. Overrated: Sanchez Underrated: Henne
I don't think you can overrate a first ballot HOFer with the stats to back it up. ...a Jets Ring of Honoree however, is another story.
I'm going off of what I saw in preseason. Vernon Gholston was a player most people thought would be out of the league but he's clearly had the light go on and is playing well for the first time in his Jets career. The hope that he would be a Ryan Leaf and out of the league in four years isnt going to happen. He's going to have a career. How good of one I dont know yet but he's good enough to stick around for another six years or more. As far as Best, most of the talk is about Ryan Matthews who is a fine player himself. I watched the Broncos/ Lions game. This guy is going to be very good in the NFL. Reminds me of Billy Sims the only projection pick i made was putting favre as overrated. if i went off last season, the guy was great but i just dont see him having the same year especially starting with a bum ankle. you are going off last year, i'm going off last year and this preseason. since the op didnt make it clear which way to go with it, we're both right
no i was talking about jahvid best but i saw the dallas/ san diego gm too. matthews is going to be good, very good but so will best
Adamprezz they certainly have shown flashes this preseason. I dont disagree with that one bit. But surely doesnt make them underrated. Gholston has a TON to prove before he even begins to dig himself out of being "overrated". 2 games of preseason just wont cut it for him. Best was a 1st rounder. 1st rounders have alot expected of them thus making them rated very high....at least by the team that drafted them. Im not saying your wrong that they can still be good-great players, but I dont see it possible to underrate either of those two specific examples. BTW I like Knighton too.
Underrated: Adrian Wilson Overrated: Tony Romo (Someone may have already given these two on the first page)
Oh my bad, I read it too fast. Thought you were talking about Matthews saying you watched the Lions-Broncos game and thought he would be very good.
