I imagined Lynch and Kalil further down. And tebow is shocking and not to shocking at the same time.

tebow at 95? seriously? that makes me sick as fuck...no joke ...Tebow shouldnt even be ranked, thats why i hate the top 100 players, they only go by last years acomplishments and its ridiculous and gives players a false sense of achievement...they need to make a Top 100 of 3rd/4th year players and fuck everyone else

Lynch should be higher on the list in my opinion.


But the Part with the Eagles DE talking about the 12 yard TD where he broke out of that pile lol fucking priceless.

LOOK, there is absolutely NO reason for a Seahawk player EVER to be ranked in the Top 200 much less the Top 100 ...get real dood, that Franchise is FUCKED for the next 10-15 years!!!..no joke, pete Carrol was here in NY for a stint and it has really sucked

I agree with Puppetz that this list does have it's faults, but I guess it's because players are ranking other players based on last season.

But Tebow seriously? How pissed would you be if you were ranked below Tebow?
John Kuhn? A FB on the list? How often was he on the field? lol
And Lynch did surprise me, I thought he would have been in the 50's.

inb4 andrew luck is in the top 10

Turner ahead of Lynch?

Cmon man Turner falls apart after week 8.

And I feel like Joe Thomas should be ranked a good amount higher. 82 just seems to low for me.

I'm sorry Balt, but Joe Flacco #74? Seriously?

I agree. Lynch was a fucking monster in the second half of the season. He led all NFL RBs in yards and TDs from Week 6 til the season end.

I'm also curious if Earl Thomas and Kam Chancellor are in there.

They won't be.

The only Lions I expect to be in there are Stafford and Megatron. MAYBE a Cliff Avril, but I doubt it. Pettigrew SHOULD get some love, but he's the most underrated TE in the league in my opinion.

I actually agree with it, he may not have had the best stats last season, but he put us in winning positions, had some comebacks (see pittsburg, and a few others) and almost made it to the SB last year (if it werent for cundiff and evans). In fact if evans would have held on for a TD he would have been in the SB. So I have no problems with flacco being at 74. Stats dont tell the whole story.....

You make it sound likes hes in the top 50, hes at 74 thats pretty close to 100 if you ask me.....

Ok Come on now...this list is suppose to be based on last year right?

How the fuck is Mike Vick and Phillip Rivers on this list?

SHIT DON'T MAKE SENSE!

i'm now curious if any other seahawks like Browner, Chancellor or Sherman got on the list. Lynch and Thomas were locks though. Both played lights out. Earl though doesnt get recognized much with the media but the guy is crazy good.

I doubt any other Hawks get in but i'm happy cause two hawks are in the top 6% of the nfl SKill wise according to their peers.

If Chancellor, Browner, or sherman or other Hawks like Baldwin play as good as they did last year i'm sure they'll make it on to next years list.

Good to see Earl and Marshawn made the list. Very well deserved. Will admit though i think both should be a bit higher. but that might be my homerism showing.

Just updated this. Surprised to see Patrick Peterson make the list especially in the 50s range. He is a helluva punt returner though.

Thank you sir. I'm kind of surprised Cliff Avril isn't on the list (Hasn't been named in the top 100-51) and I don't expect him in the top 50. But, what was it 11 sacks with 6 forced fumbles has to account for something right?

I'm interested to see where Stafford is. I have a feeling he will be on the next show.

I saw before the show started that the Panthers have 3 players in the top 100. So far we've had Kalil. So I assume the next 2 will be Smitty and Cam. I'm surprised Cam made top 50 then again he did single handedly embarrass defenses.

Devin Hester? in the 40's? Are you serious? He's a below average WR. Come on now.

And how the fuck is Cam Newton ahead of Stafford? This is bullshit!

Seems right to me.
Whose harder to game plan against? Stafford? lolno

Ha Ha, your serious? All these lists are usually crap....

Eli Manning #31 can't complain. Top 5 QB

40-31 seems right to me, besides Hali. Questionable.

Updated.

Got damn.

Puppetz..? Laronn..?

I think the only one I would question from the updated list would be Welker, Other than that I think they are all ranked reasonably well. Big Ben is a question to, but he is a winner.

Big Ben makes a lot of sense to me. They say this is voted by the players, and I feel as though Ben earned a LOT of respect among the players when he started playing with that fucked up ankle or whatever his problem was.
