PotomacSkinsFan Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 how does eli manning get the most qb votes? he'll probably have the lowest qb rating of any pro bowl quarterback in 15 years! Good for Cooley, he's the man. moss will make it, portis will make it, taylor will make it. jansen should make it, washington should make it. brunell could but most likely won't make it :gaintsuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beaudry Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 Not really any "great" quarterback play in the NFC this season. Actual QB's who have played this whole year (mostly) Brunell -- Good, not great Bledsoe -- Good, not great Manning -- Good, not great media darling Favre -- Interception machine Hasslebeck -- Pretty good Warner -- Good, not great Vick -- Vickly Delhomme -- Very hot and cold Of those 8 QB's, I would choose Hasslebeck. Benched: Brooks Orton Splitting Time: Greise/Sims Harrington/Garcia 49ers assorted Injuries: Bulger - Out Culpepper - Out McNabb - Out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moondog Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 i dont believe it this is rediculous i dont care if he's on pace for the most td passes for any second year qb he also has thrown a ton of ints....last time i checked his passer rating was below 80 he's a decent maybe above average qb at best...maybe somewhere down the road he'd be worthy of a pro-bowl but not this year no way MARK BRUNELL deserves it more his stats are A LOT better i cant believe this and eli was the top vote getter for NFC qb's above matt hasselback :doh: (enough said) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 DeAngelo Hall, I don't think he should be on there either. He did not "shut down" Owens that night and has been crisped a few times this year. Certainly there are better options? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moondog Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 wow his qb rating is five points lower than i thought everybody's on his **** about his td's but he's gotta be close to the top 5 for int's in the NFL this year thats not very impressive he may throw twenty before the year's over a 75 qb rating...yer kidding me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PotomacSkinsFan Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 So, I call on you loyal extremeskins. My brothers feel that Chris Cooley doesnt deserve a pro-bowl nod because he "isn't a fullback." Can you a) Define the H-back position and think of some evidence as to why he is more of a fullback than a tight end. :gaintsuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingarthur65 Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Actually, he is listed as a tight end for fantasy football on sportsline.com. I think he is a pro ball tight end anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinsfan93 Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 Even though Cooley isn't a protypical fullback, he does many things the position calls for. He blocks and catches passes as well. When Alsott made the probowl a few times, he made it as a fullback when his numbers were from running the ball from the tailback position. So if he can make it as a fullback when he didn't play that position all the time, why can't Cooley? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzmuda Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 He's more of a fullback than Mike Alstott since he actually blocks out of the backfield and in-line quite a bit, and Alstott made the Pro Bowl a ton as a FB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moondog Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 ill put it this way...his receiving stats are very close to even if not better than shockey's who by the way got the most votes for TE's in the nfc....he deserves to go no matter what position it is from and he's a good blocker as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjTj Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 So, I call on you loyal extremeskins.My brothers feel that Chris Cooley doesnt deserve a pro-bowl nod because he "isn't a fullback." Can you a) Define the H-back position and think of some evidence as to why he is more of a fullback than a tight end. :gaintsuck Cooley plays neither fullback nor tight end - He plays H-back. As a pass-catcher he is used more like a tight end, but as far as the playbook is concerned, he lines up much more like a fullback. Robert Royal is clearly a tight end, and he almost always lines up on the line of scrimmage on the end of the line. Mike Sellers is also listed as an H-Back, but I think most people watching the Redskins would call him a fullback. He almost always lines up in the backfield, and he is almost always lead blocking or running a flare route for a touchdown. However, sometimes he lines up offset from the line on the strong side for off-tackle plays, which is where you will see Cooley on most plays. Mike Sellers also catches a reasonable number of passes, and nobody would call him a tight end. Cooley plays essentially the same position as Sellers, except that Cooley lines up close to the line more often and Sellers lines up behind the QB more often ... They are both in the backfield though and both a big part of the passing game. Cooley almost never lines up where Robert Royal would line up on the line of scrimmage. Royal and Cooley aren't really interchangeable, but you will often see Sellers and Cooley lining up in similar positions, especially on running plays. If Mike Sellers is a fullback, Cooley is a fullback too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
