After 7 Weeks Who is Overrated & Underrated

[#56fanatic]

i can't see how anyone can say the pats or colts are overrated. no way the cowboys are overrated. they are 6-1 right now, who cares who they have played. they beat the teams they should have, can't say the same for our SKINS.

overrated - Green Bay(a little) Carolina (way over rated, the suck)

underrated - Washington(homer!) Detroit (what?)

[hail_2_da_skins]

Over-rated: Chicago Bears
Under-rated: Cleveland Browns

[The Zimmermans]

overrated: Cowboys + Jaguars
underrated: Cheifs + Giants

For those who think that the Pat's are over rated just go back and look at our stats from 1991 when our O was dominating most teams. I think we had like 28 passing TDs for the year and the Pats have 27 in just 7 games. They are going to crush the stats that our O put up that year and I do not think anyone thought we were overrated. That was the only stat I could remember off the top of my head but the other day I heard a comparison and not even funny how much they are going to crush our stats from that year.

I know the Colts are undefeated as well, but the Patriots are doing to the NFL what Tiger Woods is doing to golf. In a league by themselves. The Pats are not overrated.
I think the Browns are underrated, I think they may actually make the playoffs with Derek Anderson under center NOT Brady Quinn! Imagine that!

I've seen several people list the Pats as overated and could someone just please explain how this could be?

Jealousy or stupidity.

Or maybe both?

The thing people have to remember about being overrated is that it's a relative term. I don't dispute that they are a vey good team. But I do think this "best team ever" talk is wholly premature, based on the teams they've thrashed thus far.

I think the Capitol Police football team are underrated and the Members of Congress team are overrated.

I'm glad we did our part to roll over and add to the legend. If I had any inkling it was going to be like this, I wish we'd have been having a 2-14 season and NOT been a high ranked defense up till now. As it stands, our failure finally gives them a seemingly legitimate win over a team that on paper was a superb defense.

Has there ever been a better time to be a Colts fan?

Well today was the worst beating the Skins have endured in my lifetime. For this 8 game stretch, this is easily the best all-around team I've ever seen. For crying out loud, their average margin of victory must be somewhere around 24 ppg after today!!!

I'm eating a lot of crow right now, for sure. I would not have posted that had I really thought that we would allow them to score more than 4 TD's at most. But I really don't think anybody expected the complete desecration that occurred today.

All I can say is that the Patriots went from a team I didn't particularly pay attention to or care about to a team I deeply loathe and despise, more so than the Cowboys, Ravens, or even the Iggles (!)

You can put the Skins in that category now.

Anyone still have pipe dreams of winning a superbowl this season?

Overrated - Green Bay
Underrated - Denver

Anybody who really thought we could be in the Super Bowl this year was smoking something out of a bong, not a pipe.
