The Browns Board

  • Just today ProFootballTalk.com came out with it "Best 100 NFL players". Here is the list. Perhaps the most controversial is the fact that they listed 7 QBs before Joe Flacco:

    FYI, Joe Thomas and Joe Haden are the only Browns on the list.

  • Here is the breakdown of each of those players per team:

    49ers: 9

    Bears: 6

    Seahawks: 6

    Pats: 5

    Texans: 5

    Broncos: 5

    Buccaneers: 5

    Ravens: 5

    Cards: 4

    Cowboys: 4

    Falcons: 4

    Panthers: 4

    Lions: 3

    Saints: 3

    Giants: 3

    Dolphins: 3

    Steelers: 3

    Eagles: 3

    Packers: 2

    Bengals: 2

    Redskins: 2

    Colts: 2

    Browns: 2

    Bills: 2

    Jets: 2

    Vikings: 2

    Chargers: 1

    Chiefs: 1

    Jags: 1

    According to this, the 3 teams with the most top players are all NFC teams: 49ers/Seahawks/Bears. And in the AFC tops are Texans/Pats/Broncos/Ravens

    Do you buy it all?

  • I think a few of these guys are on this list merely for "career achievement" purposes, like Winfield, Polamalu, Ed Reed.

    As good as those guy were..."were" is the operative term. Last leg guys.

  • It's been a long time since I've seen us have two players on anybody's Top 100 list.

    Prediction: by next year it will jump to 5. JT/Haden, plus TR, maybe one of the receivers, plus another defender.

  • QB driven league, I understand. But if you are saying 'best' as in pure talent and athleticism, I think you have to go with AP. dude is an absolute freak of nature. Brady Rodgers and manning couldn't hold his nutsack athletically
