Obviously you would make a statement such as this "You can't name a team that has this many injury related question marks at the skill positions"

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.

You serious? I'd say losing your best receiver for what looks like all season is a viable excuse. Not too mention the second and third receivers from last year are recovering from injuries themselves. (Manningham and Williams) Lastly our back up running back is also coming off a season ending injury. You can't name a team that has this many injury related question marks at the skill positions.

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.

Simms specifically mentioned he couldn't make the tough NFL throws. Everybody in the NFL has a strong arm. Well besdies Matt Ryan. The differentiation are the ones with the elite arm strengths. The guys like Stafford/Flacco/Rodgers/Kaep/Tannehill/etc....

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.
 
Heyward said:
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.

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

Story of the 2013 season...here we go!

Thethe is one of the most interesting internet posters out there. He's like exactly what you imagine an internet poster to be.
 
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.

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.
