Default Re: NFL QB Article

First paragraph is really awkard. It reads like a thesis of someone who has never written an essay, he doesn't state what his argument is just leaving with a vague "I think you’ll find that there’s more to this than meets the eye."

Second paragraph " 'field general'" should probably not be in quotes. 38 TDs are remarkable and the 4 INTs are stingy but it is not necesarry to put an adjective before everyone of his accolades.

"You’ve got to believe this seemingly low yardage point is due in part to the Patriots excellent defensive and special teams performances this year giving them very favourable field position consistently."
Show this instead of hypothesizing and droping it.

New York "football" Giants is your friend Chris Berman?


"Indianapolis Colt's lead hand" another uneccesary descriptor which doesn't add anything


"Brady’s current season total passer rating is a blasphemous 134.0" another uneccesary descriptor which doesn't add anything

"Ironically not the season the Colts won the super bowl." Not ironic Super Bowl should be capitalized.


"This is neither true nor false and I’ll show you why. You could make the case that it’s true because Brady has never had a single season in his career with a passer rating above 92.8 and he has also never thrown for a season total of more than 28 touchdown passes. This is a sure decisive factor right? Wrong! Without those three show stoppers Brady has almost filled his hand with super bowl rings (he has three to be exact). And quite remarkably, Brady never had any big name receivers to make one handed grabs in triple coverage up until this season. Are they putting up crazy numbers solely because Randy Moss will always come down with the ball? The answer is no. Tom Brady has, and always will be a great quarterback."
This argument is really bad for a lot of reasons he creates a false dichtomoy and than proceeds to create a strawman despite stating the other peoples argument correctly.

"The fans of Indianapolis are screaming at the television every single time this debate is brought forth, and mostly for good reason!"
Use of exclamation marks here really bother me.

"Peyton Manning is a very admirable player to say the very least."
Really bad sentence it doesn't illustrate anything and is awkard.

"I don’t know of a quarterback who knows more about the game of football than Peyton Manning."
Why is your opinion relevant here?




"One of the most under rated of Manning’s achievements is his 10 straight consecutive seasons without missing a single game, only second to Brett Favre in the iron man race."
Jim Marshall is upset imo.


"A lot of great people are commenting on how the Colts are struggling since their loss to the Patriots in week 9. But don’t be foolish to over look the key players that were injured in that game! "
Great sentence!

"Dallas Clarke"
Dallas Clark

"Tony Romo has jumped out of the shadows with his jumper cables to jump start the dead horse than was recently known as the Dallas Cowboys offense"
I kind of want to deconstruct this sentence to show how bad this analogy is, but I'm much too lazy.


After mentioning all these great players, could you believe there’s still one more left to discuss? With the league’s youngest roster, and also the league’s second-to-last ranked run game, the Green Bay Packers have a wily old man who has lead them to their best start since the great Vince Lombardi’s team in 1964. The man needs no introduction or long winded speech. Brett Favre is a true legend.

The period before Brett Favre is a legend is bad and he also gives a long winded speech, before introducing him.

"Favre enjoys playing the game to the extent compared to a little kid in a candy shop. Favre has uplifted the rookie-based Packer team and has injected green and gold so far into the roots of cheese heads across the globe that it would be impossible for us to forget him. So long as Favre is walking he will be out there breaking his receivers fingers. We love you Brett."

Your friend has to be Peter King or Chris Berman right?

The whole article doesn't attempt to answer the question he justs gives brief summaries of all of those QBs, which any casual NFL fan would know.
