After week 1, who's the most underrated?

Week 1 is just about over, so who do you think is the most underrated to this point?

After what Eli did...I'd have to give him at least 1 vote.

Antwaan Randle El!!!!

Mario Williams. 2 sacks, returned a fumble for a TD. I think he'll be very good. He'll just always be overshadowed by Reggie Bush unfortunately.

Just letting you know the Raiders have one of the best pass defenses in the NFL so a pat on the back to John. Even though he has to of the most freakishly athletic receivers in the NFL.

Yes, last season the Raiders did have the best pass defense in the league. They gave up 150 yards passing per game. But the same Raider defense last year was 25th for run defense giving up 134 yards a game.

So, if you are an opposing head coach and you have a lead against the Raiders at half time, and you know that they can not stop the run, what is most likly going to happen in the second half? I am going out on a limb with this and say that the opposing team is going to run the ball in the second half, alot.

My point is that the Raiders pass defense was "ranked" 1st but teams didn't have to pass against them to beat them. They couldn't stop the run and Oaklands offense wasn't going to light it up to where the Raiders would be in a shoot out with anyone. I do not think that there pass defense is that great. I think that their "ranking" is over inflated due to them being so bad that teams did not have to pass against them often to win the game. To further prove my point the Raiders "WONDERFUL PASS DEFENSE" had only 410 pass attempts which puts them last in the league in that catogory. Where as the Vikings had 599 passes attempted against their pass defense and they only gave up 15 passing TD'S, where the Raiders pass D gave up 17 TD's. Not only did the Vikings pass D get thrown against for 189 times more but they still gave up 2 TD's less than Oakland.

In conclusion, the Oakland Raiders were and still are the worst team in the NFL. No one should be touting the Raiders pass defens as good, because as I pointed out they are WAY, WAY WAY, OVERRATED!!!

Very truly yours,

Re: After week 1, who's the most underrated?

How about Chris Brown and his 175 yards?
He was supposed to be on a committee with White being the #1 back.

Shaun Suisham. His coach had "kick it on 1st" faith in him and it was rewarded.

How about Josh McCown? Played brilliantly in a losing effort under Raider-like duress most of the day.

our own Big Mike continues to be under-rated - the Walla Walla Wonder is an impressive football player - we should be using him more

Maybe Walt Harris... just started off the season with a pick and almost had a fumble recovery.

He really surprised a lot of people last year didn't he.
