bizell Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 mike rumph wasn't average. he was !@#$ing terrible. what's the criteria for this list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best Player Available Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 mike rumph wasn't average. he was !@#$ing terrible. what's the criteria for this list? The list is terrible, one third way less than average. Some flat out sucked, maybe draft position was the criteria used? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerball Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 The list is terrible, one third way less than average. Some flat out sucked, maybe draft position was the criteria used? I went to the article because I was sure that I could come back here and tell you what the criteria was. Boy was I wrong and boy is that a crap list.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 very steeler-centric list; bet the author is a steelers' fan... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Beard Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I was a little upset to see Marvcus Patton on the list. I thought he was better than average. Maybe my memory is confused because he has one of my favorite player names of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Eddie George should have been the poster boy for that list...dude was perhaps the most overrated player to ever play in the NFL. He averaged 4 yards a carry only twice in his career(4.1 YPC both seasons), and ended his career with an average of 3.6 YPC. Basically, he piled up yards because he was durable, getting more than 300 carries in a season 8 straight years(in those 8 years he averaged 341 carries per season---are you freaking kidding me??)...so yeah, he got a lot of yards, but needed a lot of carries to get those yards...

Quester74 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I was a little upset to see Marvcus Patton on the list. I thought he was better than average. Maybe my memory is confused because he has one of my favorite player names of all time. Well, he was in the high 90's on the list.. so that means he on the cusp of being "Slightly Above Average", right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaineMoxie Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 The point was that there wasn't a criterion. Did none of you actually read what they wrote? They actually said they pulled these names out of their a$$es. It was a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate Angel Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 there is a big difference between a player than is below average and above average in the NFL., this article throws them all into one category if just plain average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed...Anyone that plays 13 seasons mostly as a starter, especially an 8th round pick, is better than average Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tcali Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I'm surprised Kelsay didn't make the list. not good enough. pretty good list...but broadway Joe was a great talent....and Todd Collins was well below average. could have had Buffalo's entire early 2000s roster on there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckeyeBill Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I like the inclusion of Joe Namath. If the Jets had lost Superbowl III, nobody today would know who he is and he would not be in the Hall. Hate the inclusion of Nick Barnett. Barnett... really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They actually said they pulled these names out of their a$$es. It was a joke. Yeah, I read that...but it wasn't really funny...trying to figure out where the humor angle is on this...it is just like saying, here is a list of 100 avereage Americans, and then, just going to a phone book, and randomly selecting 100 names...what is funny about this?

The Senator Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 But how does one become the "most average" - i.e., more average than the next average guy...the averagest of all the average??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
