Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

A good read. I also think it is a good idea whenever someone is writing an article it should be proof read and spell checked.

While it seems petty, if one is to be taken with credibility, the written word should be correct gramatically.


regular posts, in my opinion, don't matter as much since we are usually typing fast and posting. However, when a post is riddled with errors it can become distracting.

Nice job on the article. keep it up!

Good article, Krazzy. My thoughts on Ted Thompson exactly. A great GM. I look foward to more articles, maybe a Jordy Nelson article 😃

First attempt. Pretty good job. I agree with your views on Thompson to this point. The big determining factor now for me is can he finish the job. Can he make the FA moves when needed and get the team to the SB.

While there are some mistakes writing, (rebuild vs rebuilt) all in all pretty good. I would suggest you elaborate a little more now and then. Ex. after your listing of moves for 2006,2007,2008 you could have added another sentence or two. The summary of the results was a little short.

Look forward to future writings.

Good article, but this I have a huge issue with:

Running game always is more important than a passing game due to the control of the clock and the game.



I'd take a good passing team over a good running team any day of the week. Quarterbacks are more important than RBs. If you look at this page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Super_Bowl_champions 

And go down the list, you will see a lot of winners that won the SB without a dominant RB. You'll see a lot more teams with a dominant passing game but mediocre running game than vice versa. It's rare for a team to win it all with a lousy QB. The exception that immediately comes to mind of course is the Ravens in SB 35.

Let's look at the best RBs of recent days. Barry Sanders is in my opinion the best RB I've ever watched since I started following football in '76. As dominant as he was, he never saw the big game. Walter Payton is probably 2nd. Love the guy, but only saw the big game once and that's when they had the best D that I've ever seen. I've never seen such a dominant D. LT - great RB, HoF'er fo shizzle, but how many SBs? Emmitt Smith - excellent RB but he was on a dominating team.

Now top QBs - Montana, Young, Marino, Favre, Brady, and Manning. Marino never got that ring. He's the only one. Montana has 4. Young 1. Young would have had more had he played more years. Favre surprisingly only 1. Brady 3 and was VERY close to 4. Manning surprisingly only one considering he's been on such dominating teams.

Heck, the WCO has shown that you barely need a running game to have a dominant offense.

So I have to ask you a question - if you had the choice of Tom Brady or AP, which one do you choose (let's pretend Tom Brady is 100% healthy)? I'd take Brady. I love AP, but realistically, great QBs change games more than great RBs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.
wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.
wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.
