    Considering you cant make the connection when Dallas is referenced.

    You named a "number 1" in an underutilized Wide Receiver core. A backup running back...and like a 4th/5th WR?

    Starting safety Barry Church coming off torn Achilles.
    Starting ILBs
    Sean Lee coming off IR with turf toe
    Bruce Carter IR Elbow surgery
    Ware Elbow/shoulder surgery
    Starting RB Murray back to back injured season ankle then foot now hammy
    Dez Bryant ankle then thigh then permanently damaged finger
    Miles Austin continued hammy injuries
    Witten Spleen
    Romo had minor back surgery but whatever...more important than Kyle Williams
    New backup RB hand surgery
    And these guys played games for the Cowboys. There is a huge difference between missing a few weeks and missing 6-8 weeks or an entire season.

    Murray missed 6 games down the stretch
    Church missed the final 13 games
    Sean Lee missed the final 10 games
    Bruce Carter missed the last 5 games

    Witten played through a lacerated spleen
    Bryant through a broken and now permanently injured finger
    Austin limped through the season in an out of the lineup after missing 6 games the prior year.

    Those guys seem pretty important.

    But not as important as Hunter, Williams, and Crabtree

    Crabtree, i'll give you, the others are backups and not a huge deal.

    Those happen to every team.

    Crabtree is a massive loss, no way to sugarcoat it, i agree achillies injuries are a ***** to come back from.

    LaMichael James filled in more than fine.

    Not like Manningham/Williams are Jerry Rice/Calvin Johnson.

    What I am wondering is why in your original post where you quote Simms did you leave out the word "tough".
    Matt Ryan doesn't have a strong arm? Wow. SMH.

    Not saying they are. However they are important pieces to a team with a weak wide receiving core.

    SF lost 3 players.

    Still had your entire defense for the most part intact healthy, entire OL, Frank Gore, VD, Kap, and others playing.

    But a backup WR, backup RB is why the Niners are doomed this year, smh.

    Well, it's not Chad Pennington bad, but not a rocket either, so somewhat true in a sense.

    Well, if Kap is as good as thethe and others think he is, he should be able to make due with below average WR's.

    Not at all, every QB needs stud receivers, look at those studs Tom Brady had all career. Lol

    Well if he does it will be because of his greatness. If he doesnt...its not his fault.

    Jaws doing his QB rankings heading into the year.

    His Top 5 in no order is...

    Rodgers.
    PManning
    Brady
    Ryan
    Flacco

    How Brees isn't Top 5, i have no idea.

    He's one of the 3 QB's in the league you can plug on any team and they can contend for a SB, can't say that about anyone else not named PManning, Rodgers, or Brady.

    I dont remember all those SBs he won in San Diego...or even contended for.

    I believe he was left out because he is a system QB...therefore he is suck.

    Rodgers
    Brady
    Peyton
    Brees

    I miss your creepy Brees shower avatar. Almost as much as the creepy kid Giles thought was Heyward.

    We'll never know what would of happened if SD kept Brees, and dumped Rivers.

    As for your last part, every QB is technically a system QB.
