I wonder how many current players are going to make this list. At first thought, I figured a few and now that I’m really thinking about it, you are really probably only looking at Brady and Viniteri. There almost definitely won’t be anyone else unless you count coaches.
I'd add Brees. I think he's top 5 all time and that should get it done as a QB.

I love Milano. It would be great if the kid could morph into a bonafide stud, but that might be asking too much. As it is, he makes some really great plays and his motor reminds me of KW. Also a big fan of Poyer. Tre is undoubtedly our best player on D, but for some reason is just don't get too worked up over corners. It's much easier for me to gush over a linebacker.

Not hindsight.. since as you can see I didn’t pick Bama to be in the playoff before the season. Stating you can put them in “permanent marker” and no one else matters ... that was certainly bold.
It's still true. I hate Bama, but they damn near pulled it out with a backup QB. They'll be the pre-season #1. -

Is it me or is that a surprisingly weak class? No one with a WOW factor when thinking about their playing days. Solid players all around for sure.
I guess Polamalu would be the leader of the pack? Would love to see Tasker get in with this class too.
Holt and Huchinson are my top two with Atwater, Polamalu, and Lynch behind -

I should have stopped after the 1st five words. Sadly, I didn’t. Really? 30 years?? So the 0-16 Lions and the 1-31 Browns are worse than this years Dolphins team?
You should stop after the 1st four words of your screen name. It’s far more telling of your football knowledge.
Lol. I just cant.

I don’t think that’s a realistic take of the Dolphins recent performance. They got thumped in their first 4 games to the Ravens, Patriots, Cowboys, and Chargers. But they seem to have regrouped with the bye week then changing QB to Ryan Fitzmagic and they’ve played the last 5 opponents pretty tough, including the Steelers and a win over the Colts.
They’re not even the worst squad this year, let alone the last 30.
I’m not saying they’re a great team or a strong team, but they’re not a “preseason game that counts” either.
Our struggles against them sure make a compelling case they aren't as bad as they've been. Fitz is always good for pulling a rabbit out of his hat, but these guys are truly bereft of talent on either side of the ball.

Has a team ever made the playoffs without beating a team with a winning record? We may just accomplish that feat this year.
Possibly when Seattle won their division with a 7-9 record?

As a resident Allen detractor, I thought he did a lot of encouraging things early in the season that were stronger evidence of growth than today . Not that he didn't play great today - he did, but this Miami Dolphins team is one of the worst squads I've seen in the last 30 years. It's hard to use them as much of a barometer of anything. It's essentially a pre-season game that counts.

Are we just going to act like they didn't have future HOFer Marcus Allen to pick up the slack?

4 teams since 2000 have won the super bowl as the wild card team. 4 in 19 years.
Only 2 have been the 6th seed - ever
-
what a truly awful idea. There's a lot of years where the 6th seed doesn't even deserve to be there. More injuries, likely lower quality of on-field product, and ruining the record books. All for what? A few a extra bucks. I guess that's America.

He'll probably get a fine less than Allen's for throwing the football into the stands.

Kaep would be an instant upgrade to our QB room. He's like the successful version of JA.

They won those 6 games. That's what it's based on. Just because you're pissed off right now doesn't take away those 6 wins. It doesn't work that way. If we were a 3-6 team, we would be 3-6. I might not change your mind, but you won't change my mine. That line about not deserving to be 6-3 is a load of crap.
You can have a thing you don't deserve, and right now the Bills have a winning record. Enjoy. I'm sure it'll mean a lot in January.

We don't deserve our record?! What a load of crap.
? Based on what? This is not a good football team. They've been playing at a very mediocre level in an extremely weak year for the AFC. They've only been able to beat the very worst teams in the entire league so far, and have struggled mightily in several of those wins. Today's game should show you that this is a really a 3-6 team with masquerading as something better because of the 3rd easiest schedule in the league.

We had at least 2 chances for Hauschka to win this game and he failed.
Hauschka makes the kick and we just tie it, leaving McD/Daboll/Allen another opportunity to find a more creative way to lose.
If we were an actual good team that deserved our record the Browns never would have even been in this game. It was a 60 minute race to the bottom, and the browns finished shooting themselves in the foot before we ran out of bullets. -

KPIs are examples of metrics.
Even wins are an example of a metric...
As someone that uses KPIs daily, this is 100% correct. It's just a more complicated word for "metrics"

Viewership, Clicks, & Alexa ratings had been in a steady decline (could be stale content, could be political) and their parent company Gawker got suit for all their worth for leaking Hulk Hogans sex tape & being overall terrible at journalism.
if the site was seeing continued success drastic changes would not have had to be made
Who said drastic changes needed to be made? Have you ever been part of an acquisition/takeover? Drastic changes are often made not because they *need* to be made, but sometimes just because someone wants to, power, ego, etc. A company I used to work for was acquired earlier this year and they just announced they're shutting the whole thing down. I know for a fact is made $20M in profit with 50 employees and would've taken about 10-15 people to keep the lights on and that money rolling in.
One of the apps I created while there was top 100 in the Google Play Store. They didn't shut it down because it wasn't popular, well reviewed or very profitable. They probably shut it down because it wasn't the next trillion dollar thing, like BillsFan89 referenced.-

The fact that this thread might get moved to PPP is direct reason Deadspin died.
No, it really wasn't. You're giving yourself way too much credit.

No Steve Tasker on NFL 100???
in The Stadium Wall Archives

Part of me agrees with that. i don't think the NFL celebrates as much of it's heritage as it could. It has access to a pretty vast film archive of games and players a lot of people have very limited familiarity with or maybe never even heard of. I Mean Otto Graham took his team to the championship every year that he played and won 7 of them. Is he the best ever? Obviously with how much the game and even the world has changed, it's hard to say, but I think it's an interesting question of if his abilities would have translated to major success today if they were ramped up by modern playcalling, nutrition, workouts, etc.
It's pretty clear guys like Jim Brown would still be a beast.
