Rankings Game

Yeah. Thats why I said he differ on his value. Murray has talent but I think Helu gets third down work so that limits his value some

as do I, thus also ranking Helu..I just have more faith of what he can get done as a (mostly) two down back, before the Raiders are forced into catch up mode, if a sloth like Alf Morris can be a top ten back with zero contribution to the passing attack, no reason an athletic freak can't too

its certainly possible. Before the defense will give him space Carr will have to challenge down the field. I think it takes one more outside weapon before Carr really opens it up

As this is my first time trying to peg this list Im sure im way off lol. This is fun though

(USA Today)Cleveland Browns QB Josh McCown hit receivers in stride and dropped in two deep crossing routes over the coverage during training camp Friday, July 31, and WR Dwayne Bowe said McCown is showing "all the potential of being a top five quarterback in the NFL."

It may be funny but it's also typical.
Even if we're looking for news on a sleeper, we may read something like this:


These are real paraphrased quotes. If you read them again, while they may be praise-worthy, they're really rather generic.

What's "more involved?" Coming in as an additional blocker on rushing plays?

I haven't seen a coach say much if anything negative about any player. And they certainly aren't tipping their hand on usage either. But some guys will read what they want to read. Even me.

This better Joe?

Rotoworld: Coach Lovie Smith said today that his team sucks shitlogs and won't win a game this year. "These retards can't throw, catch or tackle for shit. We're in talks with Adam Sandler and Burt Reynolds to see if they would like to try out for the team. We suck". Smith went on to say that he'll run around the stadium 3 times with an egg up his ass if they win a game this year.

“We have to get player X more involved in the offense.” Or how about, “Player Y is 100 percent better than last year at this time.” And then there is, “Player Z has really improved his standing with the team.”​

Here is my official QB rankings for the 2015 MBBRL Rankings Game sponsored by Trojan Condoms...........remember the best part of having kids is making them.............so use Trojan Condoms and just practice making kids without actually having them.

1. Luck,Andrew IND 10
2. Rodgers,Aaron GBP 7
3. Manning,Peyton DEN 7
4. Roethlisberger,Ben PIT 11
5. Romo,Tony DAL 6
6. Brees,Drew NOS 11
7. Newton,Cam CAR 5
8. Stafford,Matthew DET 9
9. Kaepernick,Colin SFO 10
10. Manning,Eli NYG 11
11. Wilson,Russell SEA 9
12. Ryan,Matt ATL 10
13. Rivers,Philip SDC 10
14. Flacco,Joe BAL 9
15. Tannehill,Ryan MIA 5
16. Brady,Tom NEP 4
17. Carr,Derek OAK 6
18. Cutler,Jay CHI 7
19. Bradford,Sam PHI 8
20. Palmer,Carson ARI 9
21. Dalton,Andy CIN 7
22. Bridgewater,Teddy MIN 5
23. Foles,Nick STL 6
24. Griffin III,Robert WAS 8

QB Call Outs: Top 2 guys could flip flop but I see Luck with the edge replacing Nicks with AJ gonna push him over the top; the rest of the top 6 is interchangeable. No Gore plus TSmith= good year for Kaps (yup, I might be a sucker again).....Tom Brady-4 games=#16 and that's just cuz I don't have the juevos to rank him lower......IF Carson Palmer stays healthy he'll be in the top 15 EASY; that's why I have him at 20, cuz he probably won't....................not sure if this would be OOAL but I could easily see 2-3 of my bottom 8 making a run at the top 10 but which ones?????? That's why they are in the Bottom 8

RB Callouts: AP with a whole year off? I almost made the switch but I don't think he will be beat so I have him as the biggest hit in the RB spankings, I mean rankings. Again, top spots are all pretty much interchangeable IMO it's just a question of getting them in the right order. Gore too high? Dude is gonna flourish in this system with less touches but more production. Honestly would be surprised if he squeaked into the top 10.


Honorable Mention:
Ajayi,Jay MIA 5
Vereen,Shane NYG 11
Ball,Montee DEN 7

Boy, do I feel like an ass. How in holy footballhell did I not know about Bell's knee/Achilles surgeries??? I am officially way off his wagon, small as it was.



No penalty for swearing, right? I feel bad, and won't get sucked in early next year. Love you Wil

--had to flip flop Alf and Lat ...and give Ameer and Gray more love.
