Around the NFL - Week 15

[BigEd76]

yikes

31-13 Houston.  Denver is all but finished...

[Feva]

Mario Williams: 3.5 sacks last night (13 on the year, btw... maybe Houston made the right choice)
ND Kalu: 1.5 sacks last night


GET KALU?!?!

[Sgt PSN]

Dramatic improvement in Williams from last year.  He was all but invisible in his rookie campaign.  In fact, the only reason he was getting any mention at all was during criticism of the Texans FO for drafting him.  Meanwhile, it's been the exact opposite for Reggie Bush this year.

I doubt Williams will ever be "worthy" of being the #1 pick unless he has a Reggie White type career but if he plays like he has been this year for the next 10 years then it definately makes Houston look a lot less dumb for drafting him.  Probably gotta see how the careers go for last years top 5 draft picks as well for comparison.

I said this last year and I'll say it again now, Reggie Bush is not an every down NFL running back. He's an incredible athlete and he belongs in the league in the kind of role he had last year. In fact he can be a star in the sort of role he was in last year. But he isn't the second coming and the Mario Williams vs. Reggie Bush comparisons which were silly to begin with, are downright stupid now. Williams is a good player. Bush is a good player. Neither one are busts right now. Isn't that what each team wants out of their first round picks?

that became abundantly obvious after about week 4

[rjs246]

Well I'm good at noticing things that are obvious.

[ice grillin you]

actually bush is an every down back...he should be in the game as much as humanly possible...hes just not a 25 carry a game back...but new orleans knew this when they drafted him....

they took him as a rb/wr/pr....and thats what hes been

[reese125]

Reggie Bush is not an every down NFL running back.

[rjs246]

He was in the game as much as humanly possible this season and sucked left nut doing it.

[ice grillin you]

in an off year he had 600 yards rushing 73 catches and six touchdowns in 12 games

if thats sucking nutt then watch out when he has a huge year

[rjs246]

I will watch out.

[QB Eagles]

The Patriots signed Stephen Spach this week. Look for him to have about 10 catches for 100 yards and 3 touchdowns.

[BigEd76]

Good job Niners. New England is now out of the #2 spot 

[BigEd76]

32 seasons later, the Buccaneers have finally returned a kickoff for a touchdown

Favre needs less than 100 yds to pass Marino for the all-time passing record
