yeah thats right, I cant turn the knob on my Mitsubishi because its stuck on Comcast

I dont know if you want 2hr specials on Eagles RB's or an ESPN documentary, but the guy gets much props from plenty of writers and announcers--you two just need to get out of bed together and stop watching Dancing with the Stars

I don't know what you guys are talking about. Every broadcast, every article ever person who knows and talks about football gives westbrook props left and right. Joseph farging Addai getting more attention that Westbrook? Give me a break.

the best one was Brandon Jacobs

I just hope he lives up to the statue they built for him out side the stadium

Not so much from what I hear...

When I listen to NFL radio or ESPN radio Westbrook is barely mentioned as a top back. A few hosts will bring him up.

The only national media member who rates him top 3-5 is Colin Cowherd. He loves Westbrook.

So yeah, I believe he is underrated publicly.

When nationally, you still get called Michael Westbrook on a semi-regular basis... you're underrated.

Put your cocks away boys. Brian don't want none of that.

Two years ago he was underrated. Now, he's just sort of...rated. You think he's still underrated because he's become a media darling whose general tagline is "underrated." But if everyone talks about you and says you're underrated, are you?

Especially with the popularity of fantasy football, I think he generally gets his due..if not, it's just a shade under his due. He doesn't get LT-type attention nationally...but he certainly gets quite a bit more than Jacobs, Addai, et al.

Westbrook is injury prone.

rjs246 · July 18, 2008, 08:54:44 AM

Are you trying to get me started, Munson?

INJURY PRONE!

I heard he's got bad knees. And he's getting old.

Zanshin · July 18, 2008, 11:13:24 AM

Funny how guys with contract issues tend to come down with that.

hbionic · July 18, 2008, 12:06:44 PM

You guys forgot to mention that he's black.

Rome · July 18, 2008, 12:14:24 PM

And Catholic. . .

General_Failure · July 18, 2008, 12:21:15 PM

Oh God, he goes to black Mass!
