Blount, in my opinion. Though I agree with their answer as well.

Brady.

He's lost his long ball. He's old.

TOPHawk · Jan 30, 2015

Blount.

Browner.

Browner and Blount

Overrated: Wilfork
Underrated: McCourty

The Ravens were handling Wilfork with a single blocker and running right up the middle. He just doesn't look like the same dominant player that he once was. Definitely not the same immovable load that "pot roast" was last year. Media love is about past reputation.

McCourty isn't an Earl Thomas, but he is better than some other safeties that get more ink. Russell better look him off before letting go.

Collins. He's a solid player but has been put on way too high of a pedestal by Pats fans. The one guy in their front seven with even modest athleticism, and they think he's the second coming.

I hope you're right. Pot Roast tore up our running game almost single handedly. When we face a dominant DLman that consistently beats his blocks, it usually makes it a long day for Lynch. If we can block WIlfork with just one guy (doubtful if he lines head up on Unger) then we're in damned good shape to be honest.

Definitely Rob Gronkowski. People are calling him the 2nd coming, a man who will single-handedly obliterate our defense.

In reality, Gronkowski will go the way of so many dominant pass catchers who have been shut down by this Seahawks defense.

The Jets' secondary shut him down pretty good twice this season. Against the better secondaries, he doesn't play with a lot of intelligence. The Jets laid out the blueprint for us.

That's a good one, best TE in the business hands down.. As far as the Jets laying out the blueprint, I think old man Gates did that for the Pats .

People said the same thing about Vernon Davis (shut down), Jimmy Graham (shut down), and Julius and Demaryius Thomas (shut down x 2). This defense has laid waste to all of them.

Gronkowski really is the best TE in the business, though. That being said, he's not gonna go off on us for a buck twenty-five and two scores or anything, however.

The entire NE team is overrated. Put them in the NFC, and they finish as a wild card.

I'd personally say Blount, but they make a hell of an argument. Here's the link:

Yea bro, link.
Not a bad topic to discuss but if you want people to check out something, a link is a must.
Not many folks are going to go hunting for your reference material.

You should thank Maulbert.

But the pats went 3 and 1 against the nfc this year and the hawks went 2 and 2 against the afc so you might want to rethink that.

Who's overrated?
