Preseason cranks up tomorrow and that means we're less than a month from games that count.

This is the best time of year.

Re: NFL Thread: Week 1 - Glorious

Top 10 current NFL quarterbacks:

1. Aaron Rodgers
2. Drew Brees
3. Tom Brady
4. Eli Manning
5. Tony Romo
6. Matt Stafford
7. Ben Roethlisberger
8. Came Newtown
9. Matt Ryan
10. Alex Smith

I think Peyton is still on there if he has anything left. Vick is done; when he gets hurt again this year, Nick Foles is going to step in and that will be it for Vick in Philly. Philip Rivers is good but he's way too careless with the ball. I feel that RG3 and Luck will be on this list sooner rather than later. Griffin will be a superstar someday. Alex Smith has a lot of haters, but when the 49ers open up the offense and win the Super Bowl this year, people will finally give him the credit he deserves. I think if Baltimore or Houston has a good year (which they will) Flacco and Schaub will finally get some recognition too.

That shit is garbage.

Re: NFL Thread: Week 1 - Glorious

Feel free to disagree, I understand. But if you think Smith sucks, you haven't been paying attention. Now that he FINALLY has a good coaching staff and some continuity (not learning a new offense every single offseason) he has done pretty well.

In his past 24 games, Smith has completed 395 of 665 passes for 4,780 yards, with 30 touchdowns and six interceptions. Here's how he compares to the NFL's top quarterbacks over their past 665 attempts:

Player Rating
1. Aaron Rodgers, Packers 114.88
2. Drew Brees, Saints 106.21
3. Tom Brady, Patriots 102.85
4. Tony Romo, Cowboys 101.45
5. Matthew Stafford, Lions 96.32
6. Eli Manning, Giants 94.23
7. Alex Smith, 49ers 92.81
8. Peyton Manning, Broncos 92.74
9. Matt Schaub, Texans 91.93
10. Matt Ryan, Falcons 90.79
11. Philip Rivers, Chargers 88.98
12. Ben Roethlisberger, Steelers 88.25
13. Michael Vick, Eagles 86.35
14. Jay Cutler, Bears 83.69
15. Joe Flacco, Ravens 83.12

Re: NFL Thread: Week 1 - Glorious

That stat seems misleading? Why 24 games? Why not 16 or 32? A season and a half? Also he is entering his second year with Harbough, so technically he hasn't had two seasons with the same offense yet. So continuity has no effect yet.

He was briefly injured/benched in the middle of 2010 under Singletary (aka the worst head coach in NFL history).

As far as your point about continuity, that's exactly what I'm saying. He has played well the past couple years and improved quite a bit despite all the BS he's had to deal with. He is finally in a good situation to succeed. Expect big things from Smith and the 49ers this year.

Re: NFL Thread: Week 1 - Glorious

This first month, or first two games, will be MJD's preseason pretty much. He'll get on track at some point and I actually like the Jags running game a lot this season. Jennings will keep MJD fresh while being productive himself. If Gabbert can get Blackmon the ball, Jax won't be that bad at all.

Re: NFL Thread: Week 1 - Glorious

I think Flynn is 2nd and Kolb is 1st.

Idk, it may be the other way around but those two are the highest paid for sure.
Kevin Kolb is. $ 19.5 Million for Flynn, $10 Million guaranteed, $65 Million for Kolb with a $10 Million signing bonus and a $7 Million roster bonus for this year.
They are the highest two I believe. Kolb has earned a lot of money already. Kolb's is a longer deal, but it was front loaded as opposed to Flynn's being mostly even throughout his deal.

Re: NFL Thread: Week 1 - Glorious

Guys and Girl there is a game that counts today. AND IT'S A COWBOYS GAME.:mark:

Let's see. How does Dallas win? Well Eli can't get lucky for starters. Offensive line and RBs have to play smart and not fall for all those stunts and crazy shit that the Giants do to create pressure. If Romo can get time and Murray can get daylight, Dallas will SHRED that overrated Giants D. Really big if there. Giants front four is as good as anyone's. The rest of the defense...not so much. Really looking forward to seeing what Carr and Claiborne can do. Dallas still has questionable safeties, but I'm hoping the upgrades at CB allow that pressure from the front to get there more often.

Re: NFL Thread: Week 1 - Glorious

I actually love that this is the season opener. What better possible tone setting game is there to be played to start the year? Probably the most wide open division in football, where realistically any of the 4 teams have a shot at the playoffs (Redskins not really but if RG3 is a walk on difference maker then who the hell knows) and realistically only one of them will make it with strong Wildcard punches in the North and South. Add in the fact that the Giants and Cowboys came down to a game between the two last year.
