Most overrated players in the NFL
So I came across this tweet and while I know PFF is garbage...it got me thinking about this topic and about George Kittle. What in the **** do people see that makes them hold him in such high regard??? He's played 7 season...broke 1k 3 times with 2 of those seasons barely being over 1,000...one season over 10 TDs, 4 of those seasons with 5 or less TDs and 2 were 6 TD seasons. Not to mention he's been a complete non factor in both Super Bowls he's been in. He's not even in the same galaxy as Kelce...I really wish someone would tell me what I'm missing here. He has a bombastic personality and is a goofball and talks a lot? Wow ok. Who would you all say is massively overrated in the league by fans, media, etc.? |

BUT..... there's a reason they didn't include postseason stats or playoff wins or superbowls... Mahomes is 10 times the QB Dak could ever be when it matters. |

Dude was referring to his passing statistics in his rookie year after admitting he was drafted #32 overall as a project, conveniently leaving out his roughly 100 rushing yards and .8 TDs per game. |

Statistically speaking, Dak was far better than Mahomes in 2021 and 2023 while Mahomes was far better in 2022. Personally I wouldn’t broach the postseason subject because Dak has had plenty of chances to deliver but it’s not that weird a thing to say. |

MVP is a popularity contest. Nice consolation prize for sure but largely insignificant compared to Championships. Without looking, tell me who won League MVP in 2014, 2004, and 1994.. I know I can't. But I sure as shit remember who won the Super Bowl those years and who was QB. |

Now imagine you work at a big Corp company, and you decide to post something about them online. Trust me that your HR dept knows about it the next day and has a pretty good idea about who posted it. They can also scrub anything you've ever posted publicly online. Creepy!

Ball at your own 25 down 3 with 13 seconds left. Do you want the amazeballs blocker?
Or do you want the TE with a QB's mind who knows exactly how to adjust his route on the play based on his QB simply shouting, "Do it, Kels!" Yeah. Get ****ed, George. |

2004 had to be Peyton Manning. I know from memory that was the year he went off for like 49 TDs and 10 INTs. Statistically speaking may still be the most efficient QB season of all time. 1994 I will guess Steve Young. He was a dawg that year. For SB winners, I’m pretty sure it would be Pats with Brady, Pats with Brady and 49ers with Young. |

He also accounts for more yards per game than Jackson over the course of his career, and more touchdowns per game, and roughly the same turnovers per game (.94 for Jackson, 1 for Prescott). And I'm obviously not saying Prescott is good, but in the "most overrated" discussion, he's not the one winning MVPs. |

I'm pretty sure Carton had that graphic up when he said Dak=Mahomes. Which is exactly why stats can't be the only set of parameters when judging players. It's pretty much exactly like the idjits that point at Frank Gore's stats (total yards/yds per carry) and somehow decide that Frank=Barry Sanders. I mean, come the hell on. That's just stupid. Dak put up some decent stats. But no one can watch the tape and say that Dak=Mahomes in any way. Last edited by Megatron96; 06-17-2024 at 06:59 PM.. |

Joe Burrow. Hasn’t remotely earned his moniker and throws more jump balls than Deshaun Watson.

Anyone that has spent any amount of time watching the Cowboys knows that he gets a TON of stats when his team is getting blown out. Also, does anyone really overrate him? I don’t see people saying he is a top 5 QB or anything. Seems like most people usually put him right in that 10-15 range which is pretty accurate. Last edited by mr. tegu; 06-17-2024 at 07:09 PM.. |

PFN and NFL.com both had Dak ranked 6th before last season started. MSN Sports had Dak ranked 2nd in Jan. right before the start of the playoffs. Mahomes was ranked 7th in that one. And I have no doubt that certain football media types will declare that Dak is a top-5 QB before the start of the first preseason game, lol. |
