Underrated/Overrated

Which NFL players are the most overrated or underrated?

Overrated: Matt Ryan is my first choice. People claim he is on the verge of being elite, but wouldn't most quarterbacks be almost elite with two #1 WR's and a #2 playing slot?

Underrated: Matt Forte is on the top of my list because of his constant production. Yet he doesn't get any media attention that he deserves.

Overrated: Andrew Luck. According to everybody, he is the Golden Boy that can do no wrong, but he has yet to anything that Cam hasn't done. Cam actually had better numbers in his first 2 years than Luck had, yet they say Cam is a tier 3 QB while Luck is a top 5.

 

Underrated: Earl Thomas. All the spotlight goes to Sherman, but it is really Thomas who strikes fear and controls that secondary. It seems that everybody always leaves out Thomas when talking about the Hawks.

I was thinking of putting Thomas, but he seems to get his due respect. All of the people watching know he's the best in the Seahawks secondary except for parts of the media. They just want to ride the Sherman Rant hype all the way to the bank.

Russell Wilson. Does nothing special and rides his stacked team.

I just can't agree with this after his game against us. Against Matty Ice we would have had 10 sacks that game, but Wilson managed to get free and find open guys.

he makes the same kind of plays Cam does. he's actually incredible to watch.

 

 

as for overrated/underated:

 

overrated: luck (this is only because of media hype, dude can ball out but they have anointed him wayyyyyyyy too early)

 

underrated: TD (dude gets almost zero attention) but for non panther big ben.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
