    Who really is the greatest of all time?

    Didn't omit Baugh, Unitas or Staubach.  They simply didn't make the threshold of at least 4 championship wins. Baugh was 2-3 Unitas was 3-2 Staubach was 2-2 As much as I respect their contribution to the NFL, they simply don't match up to the 6 I have presented in the poll. Manning?  ... ...

    Who really is the greatest of all time?

    Sid Luckman Luckman took his team to the Championship game 5 of 7 years from 1940 - 1946.  He was 5-1 in playoff games, and won 4 out of 5 Championships. Otto Graham Graham took his team to the Championship 10 straight years from 1946 - 1955.  He was 9-3 in playoff games, and won 7 out of 10...

    Denver to the Super Bowl ...

    Your discussion is interesting but significantly flawed on nearly every level. Firstly, you can get a 25% probability to get to the Super Bowl in an infinite number of ways. For instance, 100% in Divisional, 100% in Conference Championship and 25% in the Super Bowl. Or 75% in Divisional, 75%...

    Denver to the Super Bowl ...

    The poll is simply asking if Peyton Manning is under center as the starting QB for the Denver Broncos, what is the probability that they will win the 3 games between them and holding up the Lombardi Trophy.

    Denver to the Super Bowl ...

    So that there is no mis-understanding about how I value Peyton Manning career in the NFL, he is certainly a HofF Quarterback. However, he has played mediocre at best during his 24 playoff games. Only 1/4 of his appearances are equivalent to his average career effort; 3/4 are significantly...

    Brady vs. Manning in the playoffs -- Round 4

    In spite of your quite arbitrary sampling ... Brady is 6-5 in his 11 games. Manning is 3-5 in his 8 games [not 7]. Brady outscored Manning by 2.8 points per game [25.7 to 22.9] while each defense gave up 21.7. Over their entire sampling it would be 2.5 points per game in favor of Brady [25.5...

    Brady vs. Manning in the playoffs -- Round 4

    Manning is 10-11 in the Playoffs. The year the Colts won the Super Bowl he played mediocre ball and the DEFENSE led them the entire way to the Super Bowl victory. He has proven time and time again that he cannot play well in the "big game". Look for him to falter again on Sunday. Fox is 7-5...

    Jim Irsay's recent comment about Peyton should make us think ...

    Using www.pro-football-reference.com as a reference for statistics, you'll find the following data for QB's who have played in the NFL Playoffs. This comprehensive list only includes QB's where GameLogs were present. So guys like Otto Graham and Sid Luckman were left out just because of the...

    Jim Irsay's recent comment about Peyton should make us think ...

    Peyton Manning has a stellar statistical regular season career with many records to honor his performance ... But, Review shows that Manning has a 2.09 TD to INT ratio in the regular season and a woeful 1.52 TD to INT ratio in the Playoffs. His completion percentage drops from 65.2% to 63.1%...

    Sell Vincent Jackson now!

    Couldn't disagree with you more. Sometimes you just have to suck it up even if you don't agree with your boss. Freeman is a petulant, immature child. He has one of the best RB's in the league, a great WR group which can stretch the field, and a strong up-and-coming defense. Nothing but good...

    After ADP.. who are you taking?

    Peterson will not duplicate his monster 2012 season. Foster will once again out perform all RB's in 2013! He has the talent, the surrounding cast and the opportunity. Foster averages 19.0 ppg - his best year was 20.6 ppg No one else is even close. Peterson averages 17.0 ppg - his best year...

    Close Calls: Larry Fitzgerald -vs- Andre Johnson

    Absolutely taking Andre over Larry. Opportunity is far better for Johnson! I love Larry, but he could easily lay another egg in 2013 [less than 800 yards in 2012]. O-Line still sucks, no reasonable RB on hand, no other receiving threats who will draw attention from him. I'm not sold on the...

    Can Finley be trusted?

    Not a chance, he cannot be trusted! He won't break 100 total fantasy points! 650 - 700 yards and 3 - 4 TD's. Don't drink the Lambeau Cool-Aid!

    #2 pick Foster or ?

    Take Foster ahead of Martin, Spiller, Charles, Richardson or McCoy! He's the only RB to have a 100+ yards per game and 1+ TD per game in the NFL over the past 3 years. Week in, week out he'll have the opportunity to score terrific points! His demise is simply over-reaction; he's only played 3...

    Another 200+ yard game for MEGATRON!

    An awful lot of nay-sayers out there. Sure would be interested in knowing who you all have as an alternative to MEGATRON for the Best WR ever. MEGATRON is averaging 118.25 yards per game over his last 16 games at a 17.36 yards per reception. Rice's best 16 game stretch produced 117.88 yards...
