Tampa Bob

Sorry to disappoint...it was a little too far out there to just let it be.

I must be misreading this: Carolina - new team, but deangelo williams and jonathan stewart have been pretty damn good Houston? Seriously? Ever heard of arian foster? Jax? MJD? Hello? wasn't there another guy...stewart or something. Also a new team Redskins: morris is way better today, plus john riggins along with many others Jets: curtis martin NE: curtis martin...hell antawn smith was pretty damn close Miami: ricky williams was light years better and he didn't even give a crap about the game. Also ronnie brown Cinci: lol. Corey dillon accomplished more by his second season San diego: have you ever heard of tomlinson? One of the best ever Do I need to keep going? These are just guys from recent history. Jackson isn't even top 3 from this millenium: mcgahee, henry, lynch and spiller were/are all better.

Lots of backs can get a couple of tough yards consistently. It's nothing special. I never said he sucked. He is just so over-rated. People talk about him like he is adrian peterson. I don't really have the time to look it up right now, but I will bet that the list of backs with more than 1 1,000 yard season over the past 7 or 8 years is pretty unimpressive. The problem with the amazing season that you referred to is that the durability that you noted didn't apply that year. He had a nice stretch during that season, but his body didn't hold up. How about the next year (maybe 2 years later)? More injury issues, but most of all, he had a massive case of the fumbles which hurt the team. Last year, not even the leading rusher on this team. Do you think teams really game planned for jackson? Of course they didn't. They were focused on shutting down spiller because he was the only guy on the entire offense who was capable of killing a defense. Do you really think that defenses were afraid of fred's extra 2 or 3 yards when we had no passing attack and only one real weapon?

Nah...I think I will hang around.

Yes he did

I don't

Fred might be the most over-rated player in the history of football...lee evans was a close 2nd. He has 1 season in his entire career where he just barely cracked 1000 yards. This is the NFL where EVERYBODY cracks 1000 yards. He is a decent player, but people act like he is this incredible player and human being. He has never made a pro bowl...as for his amazing leadership that I ALWAYS hear about, he has never even come close to carrying this team to the playoffs. We have been a horrendous offense for so long and he has been very mediocre for most of his career. As for being nice...come on people. Are NFL players such rotten people that we actually need to praise a guy because he is nice? Lot's of guys are nice and good husbands...lol.

Yes...just moved away I got a hair cut today...I was starting to look a bit like a troll though

Why would I be a troll? I am still a fan. I just like tampa a little better now.

Yucky

They were just a placeholder until I moved to a better city.

I dropped the bills to #2 in favor of tampa last year. I also dropped the yankees to #2.

You can't possibly believe that teams intentionally look like crap as part of some genius strategy to unleash the beast in regular season, right? If so, why even bother playing starters at all? Scale back the playbook? Sure. But to intentionally take sacks and miss passes? Come on.
