[Bulldog]

Buffalo @ 17, they can't be serious.

That seems somewhat low :mad:

[TheGhostofJimKelly]

At this point it looks about right. I don't quite agree with the Bengals being that high and how are the Cowboys not the worst.

Espically when you look at some of the teams ranked ahead of Buffalo.

[Bulldog]

I want to know why the Patriots are so high. I know they won the SB last year, but Dillion has alot to prove as he has had a few down years. I think Dillion has the talent, but he needs to show something before the Pats are worthy of that ranking.

I also question the Eagles ranking. I wouldn't trade Henry for their whole stable of running backs.

[TheGhostofJimKelly]

You are correct, the Eagles and Broncos shouldn't be higher.

[Jan Reimers]

The only way to prove the "experts" wrong is to unleash Travis and Willis as a devastating one-two punch. Until we totally dominate, questions will abound.

[mypoorfriendme]

atleast he realized he made a bad decision and explains

[Charlieguide]

No . . . he tries to explain. Henry isn't big enough to last?! How big was Barry Sanders? Emmit Smith? Thurman?!

Henry is an extraordinarily tough runner. Remember the bruised ribs last year, and they way he scored that winning TD and went STRAIGHT into the locker room without even a celebration? He was in SERIOUS PAIN for half the season, missed two games, and still broke 1300.

Yeah, I agree with the top five or so rankings, but after that it's a mess.

[Mr. Miyagi]

Travis Henry
Willis McGahee
Ken Simonton
Isaac Mitchell
Shaud Williams
What happened to Joe Burns? Is he converted to fullback now? :huh:

[lordofgun]

Funny how he makes excuses for team RBs that he puts too high.

He says RW's 3.5 average was because of poor QB play. When's the last time the fins had consistently good QB play? Yet Henry managed to do just fine last year with terrible support from Drew Bledsoe.

This guy's just plain stupid.

Emmit was the only one with the same style somewhat to TH.. Smith may have had the best lineman of all time.. Henry cant take the same type punishment again this year, he might get an injury that will cause him to miss significant playtime.

WM will be an explosive reliever for TH.. if Henry can stay healthy throughout the season and not overused, The Bills will be in a position to recover a first round pick in trade for one of the two Backs.

Actually, the first half of Ricky's first year with us, Fiedler played like a true starting quarterback, good decisions and everything. Then he broke his thumb against the Broncos and turned back into a pumpkin....a big eared pumpkin.

Who's Issac Mitchell? :scratch:

I dont agree with you saying about Denver, I think anyone that runs behind the Broncos O line will be a great back.

[JefftheBillsfan]

..so you do agree with him?

[Bert102176]

I think we should be top 7 no further then 8

Which of these 10 do you think we're better than?

Packers
Chiefs
Panthers
Rams
Vikes
Jags
Seahawks
Pats
Bengals
Ravens


The real crime in the article is that the Chargers are 12th. I don't know what games this guy watches, but Tomlinson is one of the top 2 RBs in the league (Lewis the other) and is a horse.

[JefftheBillsfan]

id put us ahead of the rams, vikes, seahawks, pats, bengals

He should have pointed out the oline and not qb play, the phins oline opened no holes for ricky, I'd blame them not the qb.

Henery did fine because the bills oline was better then the phins, and they still had the potential threat of bledsoe at qb because he was good before last years slump.
