Thread: Wolfe told Rivers he would eat his kids

It sucks because they are so many compelling guys out there. I watched McNabb do a lot with flat out bad WR's. Todd Pinkston went to another team and became their third WR. James Thrash was trash. and I can't even remember the third guy's name. He had TO for a brief stint and then Westbrook. McNabb probably won't get in, maybe he shouldn't, but he deserves a look.

Then look at Kurt Warner. You can make a pretty solid case for him.

In support of Rivers, I think he has a couple of records that people forget about. IIRC, he set a completion percentage record two years ago? I also think he's going to retire highly ranked in a lot of the categories. IDK. i don't like him at all, but I do respect him.

i'm not feelin' you guys on this one. . . if winning doesn't count, then it's nothing more than the Hall of Stats. . .

Even THAT might be high. Only 25 QBs from the modern era are in the HOF.

If it's just winning then there's a crap-ton of players that rightfully belong in the hall that aren't and some that are in that shouldn't (Floyd Little anyone?)

Terry Bradshaw is a HoF QB and was less than average for a good part of his career. Joe Montana was a limited QB who thrived in a perfect situation for him. Big Ben needed damn near seven years before he became a top flight passing QB. Tom Brady needed quite a few years to become an elite passing QB.

Wildly different scenarios, but in each one a guy was overrated due to being a winner. It's part of the equation, but it's wildly overrated for how an individual player is in terms of their worth.

I wonder whose ear Wolfe will bite off.

In fairness, I don't think they're fat.

I can confirm they are not fat.

I like players who threaten to eat opposing players babies. It's just good, clean, family fun.

Have you seen his horrible haircut lately? Lol
