That being said...the guy's been looking like a good player this season and at the end of last.


Nobody said Simpson wasn't a good player. But a "STUD" WR,... nope! That is the Andre Johnson, Calvin Johnson, Roddy White, Greg Jennings level.  He ain't there.

Simpson is a good player, just not a "stud"

Repeating your position over and over does not make it more correct. You've voiced your opinion; some people disagree with you. The broken record approach isn't going to change anyone's mind. When the guys who do this for a living- because now I've heard it on NFL network AND ESPN- are talking about not only the greatness of this catch, but how the guy blew up against Baltimore last time they played and how the expect he will do it again, what do you think, maybe you're wrong?

Edit- using Andre Johnson beautifully proves my point. If you're goin to rest on stats alone, not athletic ability, you can't say he's a "stud" any more than Simpson this year (which is Simpson's first year starting; previous seasons are not apples to apples). Johnson seems to be hurt every year, without fail and his actual "stats" this year reflect that this season.

You have repeated your Tebow stance about 50 times in this thread, save the lectures. Pot meet Mr. Kettle!

If you think Andre Johnson is in the same category as Jerome Simpson then you don't understand NFL football. Johnson has put up hall of fame type numbers in his career, Simpson has caught 45 balls and 4 TD's this year. Give me a break!! By the way, Andre Johnson in only 6 games this year (and he left 2 of them early in the first half) has similar numbers to Simpson.

In 15 games, Simpson 45 receptions, 671 yards and 4 TD's
In 6 games (more like 4.5 games) , Andre Johnson 31 receptions, 371 yards and 2 TD's.

So in 9 more games Simpson has caught a whole 14 more balls and a whopping 300 more yards....lol And because Simpson had 1 good game vs Baltimore last time he might have 1 good game vs Baltimore this week. How does having 1 good game every now and then make a guy a STUD WR? That is the point, not the occasional good game, good play, amazing leap....a STUD WR every play, every snap, every game. Simpson isn't a "STUD".

Contradict yourself much? THAT is why I brought up the comparison. A stud reciever better be able to play more than 6 games. Shocker, though, someone disagrees with Mike and he goes all condescending on them. News flash, Mike- if you really knew half as much about this shit as you think you do, you'd be working in the industry and not being a keyboard warrior here. Just because someone disagrees with you doesn't mean you're right and they're wrong. You've had a hard on for arguing with me about everything under the sun ALL YEAR, so I'm sure you'll have some snide, childish remark here too, but really, at the end of the day, is it THAT important for you to be right? I mean does your life honestly revolve around this website and "proving someone wrong"? -EK

So nobody is ever allowed to get hurt in the NFL?  Roll Eyes

By your logic Dan Marino wasn't a STUD QB because he tore his Achilles and missed most of the 1993 season. lol. This is silly on every level what you are saying.

In this thread alone you are wrong about Tebow, Sanchez, and Simpson. Congrats you got the hat trick. Hey when Sanchez fumbled on the 1 yard line Saturday  and threw 2 INT's that lost his team the game, was that further proof he is having the best year of his life? Just askin

Instead of derailing the thread I took our conversation to PM, and I would hardly call it "vulger".

it's insane to say that was hardly the greatest TD ever.  Give the guy some credit.  Arguably the greatest TD ever is more accurate.

I gave him credit, I said it was a great move. But in the history of the game, I would not call it the greatest TD ever. Not even arguably.

The Immaculate Reception is a far more impressive and significant TD.

Calm down.

Totally agree with Spider on that... Also throw in the Sea of Hands and  the Antonio Freeman Monday Night Football TD reception in overtime vs the Vikings about a 10+ years or so back

While this play was certainly very cool, it was not entirely skill-based.  The player leaped into the air and was hit on his ankles in a way that made him spin perfectly.  Much of it was out of his control.  ...a cool oddity. 

I think that Reggie's hurdle over the defender is actually more impressive on a football level, because it made for a better result and it was purely because of Reggie's talent that the play occurred as it did.

Hey Guys!

So, I've been looking at the on-screen TV Guide that Xfinity has and searched for "Tebow Time". It didn't return any results. I tried tuning in anyways at the the time that I thought"Tebow Time" would be on...but again, no luck.

Did they cancel this program? I tried looking last week at 4:15 PM during the Patriots / Broncos game and then at 1PM a few days ago during the Broncos / Bills game.

Did anyone happen to catch the Bill Maher tweet after the Broncos got killed by Buffalo?

If Orton goes into Denver this week and beats the Broncos, knocks them out of the playoffs, and Tebow plays bad, those fans of his in Denver will turn on Timmy very quick.

The Tim Tebow era might crash and burn this Sunday.
