Peyton Manning was drafted #1 overall by the Colts in 1998. His first four years in the league he was a 2 time pro bowler, compiled a record of 32-32 and more importantly he was 0-2 in the playoffs, the big games, you know when the pressure is on the most. His QB rating during this time was 85.17 and he threw for 111 TDS, 81 INTS AND 16,418 YDS. For those keeping score: HE WAS A .500 QB WHO THREW 20 INTS A SEASON. Overrated or underrated. Remember he was the fucking #1 pick in the draft.
Tony Romo was undrafted walk on who played his way into a 3rd string spot on the Cowboys roster in 2003. No press conference, no limo to pick him up and no signing bonus. In his first four years Romo was a 3x pro bowler, compiled a record of 40-18 and he was 1-3 in the playoffs. His QB rating was 95.4 (3RD ALL TIME BITCHES) and he threw for 108 TDS, 55 INTS, and 15,327 YDS. For those of you keeping score: He wins 69% of the time , averages a little less than 1 INT a game and completes 64% of his passes.Based off of that who did you think is overrated and who do you think is underrated.
Now don't get me wrong I'm not saying that Romo is better. I'm just saying that at the end of the day Tony is a helluva QB, who is vastly mis judged, because of the uniform he puts on. If TRony Romo played for the Chiefs or the Jaguars they would building statues of his ass and people in those cities would be naming their sons after him and offering up their virgin daughters to him for marriage. The only thing Tony has done wrong is playing for the Dallas Cowboys and believing that he would be allowed to grow like any other UNDRAFTED PLAYER WOULD BE. MMOTHERFUCKERS HE WAS NOT DRAFTED. THAT MEANS THAT EVERY FUCKING TEAM IN THE NFL SAID "YOU KNOW WHAT TONY , YOUR NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO EVEN BE 3RD STRING AND CARRY A CLIPBOARD ON MY SIDELINES. Yet he is overrated. Peyton throws for a gazillion yards every year, does all that pre snap bull shit, gets one of the top 2 seeds every year and has only one Superbowl to show for it. That's being overrated. Imagine if Kobe never won a ring without Shaq, they would still be calling his overrated. Tom Brady for my money is the best thing going and to me he is vastly underrated with his 3 Superbowl rings and his status as a 6th round pick, because all of America keeps putting Peyton over him.The year he got his props he didn't even win. Go figure that shit All I am saying is undrafted players can never be overrated, but #1 picks with tons of records and 1 Superbowl to show for it can. Now on to the Lowdown.
- THINGS THAT I LEARNED IN WEEK 3:
- As far as the eyeball test is concerned Mike Vick looks better than ever. He is like Demi Moore. We keep telling ourselves there is no way, but our eyes are not deceiving us.
- Anquan Bouldin AKA THE DIFFERENCE MAKER is delivering as advertised and just ask Arizona if they miss his ass.
- I learned that if you don't have a superstar on your team that has your back and buys into your philosophy that when the going gets tough you will get tuned out and become a statistic real quick.
- The media is made up of clowns who don't really believe half of what they say. They are now saying that Chicago is overrated and Jay Cutler is a fraud. At 3-0 we should all be so bad.
- I learned that THE PERFORMANCE ENHANCER Rex Ryan knows talent and how to motivate it. LT is running physical and Sanchez is looking decent. Braylon is even catching the ball.
- I learned that calling a timeout before a kicker kicks is a bad thing especially when your name is Sean Payton. Call a timeout and your team just blocked the kick. WHAT THE FUCK?
- UNNECESSARY ROUGHNESS:
- I do believe that you can lead by example in some sports, but you can't get away with it while playing QB in the NFL. I was talking to my boy Brad Piff the other day and the topic of leadership came up. We were talking about the end of the Charger Seahawk game where Rivers threw a pick to end the game. His body language after the game was that of a pissed off motherfucker who was sick and tired of being sick and tired. He was yelling and pointing and if you had just tuned in you would have sworn that someone else on the team had just fucked up. Because of his demonstrative manner and his I don't give a fuck attitude he is never blamed for his teams misfortune even when he has something to do with it. His teammates never complain to the media about their lack of touches or anything related to Rivers. That's fucking leadership. Eli Manning on the overhand had similar numbers to Rivers and his team loss just like Rivers except he was blamed for it. The media was talking about how the Giants lack a true leader and that this would have never happened if Strahan was there. The Cowboys loss in week #1 to the Deadskins and on the last play of the game Romo threw what we all thought was the winning TD. Wrong, a holding penalty was called and Romo was blamed for coming up short again. This type of shit never happens to Peyton or Brady, because their fucking players no better. Jump offsides or get called for a holding penalty that cost them the game. Forget the coach your ass belongs to those guys. I once saw Brady headbutt one of his lineman after a good block. That shit got me pumped up and wanting to play for his ass. Whenever Larry Allen or Erik Williams fucked up Troy Aikman got them in line and they are Hall of Famers. If Romo yells at his line and gets in Roy Willaims face and tells him to get open and demands that his team plays together and smarter. Guess what? They do because as the QB and unquestioned leader of the team, the owner pays you and can't afford to replace you, and the coach needs you support and therfore will back you. If Eli and Tony ever learn anything it should be that as QB if your team does not respect you as their leader , they will disrespect you and let you get blaimed for all that is wrong with the team and even if it is not their fault.
