Yeah, that's due to the list being made in 2009 and AV really loving long careers. Brady will probably finish doubling Cunningham's career AV over the next two seasons. You'll also note that by career AV Drew Bledsoe was better then Steve Young or Joe Montana. For another example, Aaron Rodgers is about equal to Vinny Testaverde.

Not the best, but the People's Champion #72 is clearly

Hhhmmm... Yes I suppose your opinion is useless. More yards than Bradshaw, Griese and Namath. More TDs than Aikman, Starr and Staubach. More QB rating titles than Montana and Marino combined. The first QB to effectively play the WCO. If Anderson played for an NFC:E team he would have been a first ballot HOFer. He's only overlooked because the Bengals never won a title. Bigger than Geno Atkins by a full inch. VVVV Eifert Posting fucked around with this message at 01:01 on Jun 9, 2014 |

He may have been 20 pounds lighter than Wilfork (6'2" 325) or Raji (6'1" 333) at his leanest, and later on he was bigger. Like, just as heavy as those guys, maybe heavier.

Oh please. Fouts played for the Chargers in the same Era, never even got to a Superbowl, and was a first ballot hall of famer. Playing for the Bengals had nothing to do with it. He just wasn't good enough to be a first ballot guy or any further ballot guy

Eifert Posting posted:Hhhmmm... Yes I suppose your opinion is useless. More yards than older QBs from an older era means nothing. More TDs than Aikman means nothing because Aikman never had more than 25 in a season. He had an all-world RB. Starr and Staubach (Starr in particular) played in a different era. QB rating titles don't mean poo poo. The first QB to effectively play the WCO? Okay, but Montana and Fouts did it better. If Anderson was as good as Fouts or Montana he'd have gotten HoF consideration. He wasn't. Also, Boomer was better.

Anderson got plenty of consideration, he just never made it. I do agree that if he got a ring he'd probably be in, wasn't he really close a few times? I'm in the camp that thinks he should probably be in, but I'm generally a big hall guy.

A record that wasn't broken until Largent 40 years later. 1211 yards and 17 TDs, numbers that are comparable to any top 10 WR of TODAY, in loving 1942. That was in an eleven game season. In other words, he averaged 110 yards and 1.5 TDs a game, in 1942, an era where defenders could practically tackle the WR at the line and grab them at any point in the route. You are delusional. 110 yards and 1.5 TDs in the modern 16 game schedule would now amount to 1760 yards and 24 TDs. Who has done THAT, even with the new rules that protect WRs even more than they did in only 2001? Answer: No one. A few have come close, but seriously. Even Jerry Rice and Randy Moss have never hit 24 TDs and 1760 yards would be in the top 5 of single season yards by any WR. e: It would be 3rd behind 2012 Megatron, 1995 Jerry and 1995 Isaac Bruce.

I just wish Chad had a few more years at peak production so I could push for him, but he fell off way too young. It's weird, cause he was never a huge speed guy. You'd think running killer routes and getting his feet down no matter what would have led to a longer career. Makes me really appreciate Hugh Jackson seeing how badly Chad struggled to learn offenses later in his career. Eifert Posting fucked around with this message at 02:38 on Jun 9, 2014 |
