The offensive side is pretty much right imo.

 

I MIGHT put Russell Wilson over Aaron Rodgers

Other than that yeah I have no objections with the list at all tbh

 

Cameron Jordan is actually really fucking good. Maybe Wake is / was better but not by a wide margin. I think Jordan is constantly underrated because NO’s defense usually sucks overall.

 

I definitely put Russell over Rodgers personally

But it’s not like, clear cut. I just think it’s really impressive that the Seahawks offense has been straight up bad a couple times and yet Russ carries them regardless

Wilson has better pocket presence / eludes the rush better than anyone in history imo and that’s a HUGE reason why I have him in my top 3. For a QB to still put up elite numbers when the defensive line is all over him / he’s taking more pressure than most of the league, that is nuts. It’s almost like you can’t do anything to disrupt Wilson no matter how good your defense plays.

To expand further, he doesn’t have QUITE the pinpoint accuracy of Rodgers but I think Wilson is better at “touch” and delivering well timed floaters that are easy to catch.

Rodgers is more likely to throw a bullet through a bread basket, & he needs his receivers to be able to make acrobatic grabs in traffic, to take advantage of how ballsy and precise he is. You gotta make really hard catches to match Rodgers’ impossible throws - he’s so aggressive that it requires the rest of the offense to keep up.

Wilson is more conservative - he can thrive with average ass receivers, cause he’s smart about making it easy for his WRs to make a play. Wilson is also wildly accurate while on the run, more so than Rodgers imo.

 

Only reason I say might is that Rodgers has 2 extra years on Wilson during the decade (one of those years being a SB and another being a MVP)

If we condense to overall, I have Wilson winning, but looking at a QB to represent the decade I could see Rodgers still being it over Wilson

 

I have no real qualms about either list

 

Rodgers had a couple of insane seasons that earned him 2 mvps during that decade stretch though where Wilson hasn’t quite reached those heights, although the last 3 years Wilson has been much better than Rodgers. It’s pretty much a toss up but I’d give the edge to Rodgers.

 

(Granted Rodgers should only have 1 MVP)

 

If you're going to replace any of the DE's in favor for Wake, I would honestly swap out Peppers for him, he was still very good through the 2010's but more of his dominance was in the 2000's

 

My only other issue with the list is the lack of representation at right tackle

I get why but they should show respect considering how different it can be

 

Ive actually seen both QB’s live in the last 5 years, so I actually have vivid snapshots of what their play styles are like.

 

Hell yeah Fletcher Cox my guy

 

Also who the fuck didn't vote for Luke Kuechly or Bobby Wagner

I need to figure out their voting methods

 

Reading this made me remember I've seen 8 QBs play live and 1 of the top 2 is a college QB above 5 NFL QBs hahaha

 

ohhhh
kay

 

Patriots play in the Super Bowl 50% of the time and only get Brady, Gronk, and like 33% of Chandler Jones. Jooooooke

 

I know you're probably joking but what other Patriots players would you include and over whom?

 

So Seahawks???

 

Also had Gotskowski and Mankins

 

Gronk should be unanimous though, I can't imagine who looked at his career and was like "Nah"

 

And Revis!

 

I didn't see Mankins and I don't see where the special teams one is so I'm kinda flying blind. I was ready to make a case for Gost, Mankins, Matthew Slater, Devin McCourty, and I'll always make a case for Julian Edelman though I know that one is homerism.

 

Eh, one year. I don't think of Revis as a Patriot, even if he is already one of the best CBs we've ever had lol. That year was the definition of two guys using each other.

 

Found the Special Teams and i'm still outraged no Matthew Slater:

3× Super Bowl champion (XLIX, LI, LIII)
