Most overrated player in the NFL goes down

Deon's next tackle will be his first.  However, he made pass offenses one-sided.  Offenses would change everything they did to keep from passing the ball to his side of the field.  He was also a threat to return every punt he caught to the endzone.

And I don't think we'll ever know if Swan was overrated.  Think of the offense he played on.  There was only one ball and it had to be spread around for Swann, Stalworth, Blier and Harris.  The Steelers were a running team with a fantastic possession receiver (Stalworth).  I bet Swann could've carried a team's passing game if he'd had to.

Or Rick Mirer.  Hey, if you want top draft choices that wash out and  become bench warmers in the NFL, Seattle is IT>>>

Trivia: The lowest average IQs in sports - Golfers.  The highest average IQs in sports - Bowlers.

Vick the most over-rated in the NFL?  Nah.  And I don't think the Falcons think so either.  He's a great QB and he will definately be missed.... but only for 6 weeks.  Its a good thing it was only 1 bone that broke.

And... the most overated player ever: Todd Marinovich.  Nothing else even comes close.

You bet.  Another bit of trivia:  All golfers think they have the highest average IQ in the sporting world.

Don't have a source... I've heard it on the radio a few times and I've seen it referenced in articles like this a few times... but haven't seen the actual study.

BTW... that article is about a high school that tried to see if they could duplicate the results with a very simple comparison... it's not how the original data was collected.

And i was predicting he wouldnt be out with an injury untill after his first game against the bucs this year. I hope im not the only one who is tired of hearing how great this guy is even though he hasnt done a damn thing except get beat down by top 10 defence's.

That'll teach EA for putting mike vick on the cover of madden 2004, ignoreing the best team in the nfl. (the buccaneers of course)


i guess they losing games to keep nfl interesting. bucs can claim to have won four times as many games as falcons tho. be proud.
