Better Comeback: 05' Smitty Vs. '10 Vick


Montsta

Recommended Posts

Bleacher report had an interesting article (can someone link, I'm on phone browser and it is teh suck) on the 25 best comebacks of the decade. They gave Vick 2010 the top spot, whereas triple crown Smitty got #7. I thought it was ridiculous, but my homer glasses are welded on permanently so maybe I'm wrong. Thoughts?

Oh, and Delhomme got #24 for 2003.

vick came back from, ahem, personal trouble and put together his best year as a QB after a year of sitting on the bench. he did this on an absolutely stacked offense.

smith came back from a broken leg and put together one of the best years for a wide receiver ever, won the triple crown, and did this on a team where the second leading receiver was a running back.

Definitely '05 Smith, his team went further in the playoffs.:cool: On another note, Steve Smith didn't really win the triple crown. He lead in receiving yards, but tied in receiving touchdowns and receptions that year. Yet I guess they say that is good enough, but I'm not satisfied with that title considering he isn't the sole leader in all three categories. Smith's nickname used to be Captain YAC, it's time he brought that one back.

    • Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds. 
    • Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.
