C'mon - this is the NFL. It's not about what you have done, it's about what you can do. MB did exactly what was asked of him against Houston, and he did an incredible job for the most part. However, you can't seriously suggest that Saunders asked a lot of MB's arm. That's still the unknown, and that's what has been missing for the past 5 games (plus pre-season, which I know you don't count for some reason).

History plays a valid part in evaluating a player. The haters sure do love to throw 2004 in our faces, that's for sure.

And what better way to see what an expierenced player can do than by looking at what he has done?
