The Five Most Underrated Players in the NFL | The World According to MoonDog - 0 views

  •  
    The NFL is full of underrated players that most casual fans may not even know unless they play for the home team. These players are the backbone of the team and play critical parts in winning a championship. Sometimes they are underrated because of the market they play in and receive no national attention or because their fans build up unattainable expectations that the players can never achieve. Here are those five underrated players NFL teams should be lucky to have. Donovan McNabb - Philadelphia Eagles Despite the fact McNabb plays in the city of Brotherly love, there seems to be no love lost when it comes to McNabb's performance. Since he was drafted in 1999, McNabb has completed 58% of his passes for 29,320 yards with 194 touchdowns and 90 interceptions. McNabb boasts the third best touchdown to interception ratio in the history of the NFL behind Tom Brady and Steve Young. During his ten years in the NFL, McNabb has led the Eagles to five NFC championship games. Even though McNabb was only able to lead his team to one Super Bowl appearance, his playoff performance out performs others, like future Hall of Fame quarterback, Peyton Manning. With Manning under center, the Colts have an overall record of 8 -7, whereas the Eagles with McNabb at the helm, have a 7 - 4 record with less offensive firepower. Yes, McNabb may have not won the big game yet, but he has shown leadership and the ability to bring success to the team he plays for. There is no telling what type of career McNabb would have had if he had more offensive weapons at his disposal. Though he will never go down as one of the top ten quarterbacks of all time, McNabb deserves some consideration when you expand the list to twenty five. Owen Daniels - Houston Texans The moment the you being to discuss the topic of top tight ends in the NFL, names like Tony Gonzalez, Jason Witten, or Dallas Clark come to mind. One name that should be on the tip of everyone's tongue is the Texans, Owen Daniels. In 2008,

Football | NFL: T. O. Junior? - 3 views

  •  
    I hear Roy Williams still believes he is the lead dog of the receiving pack in Dallas and cannot understand why his numbers are not that of a top flight receiver in the league. He claims that everyone else on the team is getting better thrown passes than he is and that is why he has caught only 14 of the 37 balls thrown his way.
  •  
    What do you know about Roy Williams today? And where can I watch the games?
  •  
    Roy Williams missed the majority of last season after breaking a bone in his arm. I don't know whether he will play again, but I hope so. As for the ways to watch the games, I can suggest using Sportsurge https://www.firesticktricks.com/sportsurge.html. This is one of the best streaming sites. And you can access it on all devices.

Why Many College Football Players Fail to Win the Heisman Trophy - 0 views

  •  
    One of the biggest debates all through the college football season is who is going to win the Heisman trophy and who deserves to win. Many times those are two completely different debates. The Heisman gets lots of negative publicity as simply a popularity contest and therefore is a meaningless trophy. I will offer up a bit of defense for the Heisman, though not a complete defense because it does have its problems.

NFL: The Eagles Need McNabb More Than He Needs Them - 0 views

  •  
    This has been a truly interesting season for Donovan McNabb and the Philadelphia Eagles thus far. There was a lot of attention given to the fact that they went out and signed Michael Vick in the offseason and how that would affect McNabb. Then he went out and got injured in the third quarter of the team's season opener against the Panthers, a game that was not one of his finest performances either.
