Yeah, I'd hate to be Michael Turner too... getting 150 yards must be so hard for him

Michael Turner
Roddy White
And
@ Cutler being picked over Rivers, re: Ben (of course based on DYAR and DVOA, it isn't so egregious as simply relying on passer rating ).
I'll look over the rest later

Missing: Philip Rivers, Marshawn Lynch, DeAngelo Williams... plenty of others, I'm sure. I'm never happy with these squads, but I guess it doesn't really matter... half the starters end up opting out over minor injuries anyway.
BTW, it's Favre, not Cutler, who doesn't belong.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

Yeah well, Arizona has good representation, as they deserve. Quite a turnaround, but they better get to grooming the kid for QB. They need to go defense in the draft.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

I wonder if there's ever been a QB/WR/WR combo named as starters before.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

I'm interested in knowing, but I'm not too interested in the research. Let me do a quick Google. I didn't get any ready results, so I give up.
Imran? You don't seem to have enough to do. How about chasing this down?Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

I bet there has even been a QB/WR/WR combo named as starters before involving Kurt Warner, even.Originally posted by -Jrabbit

Not to mention Farve?And @ Cutler being picked over Rivers, re: Ben (of course based on DYAR and DVOA, it isn't so egregious as simply relying on passer rating ).
He'll go anyways as an alternate so it's not so bad.
Didn't I say quite some time earlier that Rivers would get the snub over Manning, Farve and Cutler in that precise order?Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

Well when the Chargers started tanking something fierce, it was a given. If they actually were winning, I'd bet you that Rivers would be the 3rd.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another.

They are 7-7, same as Denver.Well when the Chargers started tanking something fierce, it was a given. If they actually were winning, I'd bet you that Rivers would be the 3rd.
I don't see why Cutler should get in over Rivers.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.
