Re: Peter King still doesn't get it

I have to laugh that he gives Carson all this credit for the Giants being this great run stopping defense, he wasen't even on the best defensive team of his era, that honor goes to the Bears, as well as whom was considered the best MLB of that era? Mike Singletary. Now he want's to use a popularity contest in the pro-bowl, as if we don't see year after year players left off the pro-bowl roster who clearly deserve it above others who are voted in.

I love how he fails to mention that Carson played in a 3-4 defense, which in itself dimishes his accomplishments as a run stopper. As he stated Monk had Clark who was very good, but I wouldn't call him great, yet he fails to mention that Carson was the benefactor of LT on his defense occupying 2-3 players constantly, correct me if I am wrong but LT is THE greatest OLB to ever play the game. Pepper Johnson stepped in and played tremendous for the Giants, along with plenty of other MLB's during Carsons era, it's funny he doesn't give Parcells and Belechik the credit for Carsons limited success, reason I say that is both have proven to make star's out of less than physically gifted players, Carson is riding the success of a defensive concept which plenty of other MLB's have had a lot of Success, some more than Carson, his name? Teddy Brusci. As well a strong case can be made that Carson was 3rd best LB on his own team behind Taylor and Banks.


Then perhaps the biggest argument that can be made which you will never hear coming out of Kings convoluted mouth is this, the Wr position especially a possesion WR like Monk is far more difficult, and requires far more skills than a MLB of a 3-4 defense, so in itself by position Monk IMO deserves the nod over Carson, even if Carson was on an even plain with Monk, but that's just not so, Monk broke several NFL records. Carson is lucky if he holds any Giant records. And yes Monk has a hall of fame coach signing his praises with more SB rings than the guy who was signing Carsons praises!

The guy is a hypocrite, who has limited knowledge of how the game truley breaks down!

Bottom line Monk was the primary reciever on the most prolific offense in NFL history, Carson? Well he wasen't even on the best defense of his era. END OF STORY!
