Show us where he said "the greatest of all time".

Thomas has been one of the best left tackles in the NFL since he was drafted, period.

You're a steeler fan. You should know this. Aren't you supposed to be more knowledgable???? lmfao!

Since you're calling me out peckerbreath, I'll bring this up. On one of the threads a few days ago I called out Thomas for being overrated. I claimed that talking heads such as ESPN prop players up to get them drafted. I was lambasted, called a fool, and my football knowledge was called in question. There is an article on Profootballtalk as we speak accusing Mel Kiper of doing this exact thing. Dont any of you Clowns ever question my NFL knowledge again. I know some of you on here are thinking that I have contacts on the inside.

Maybe I have. Also I said a month ago on here that Farve wouldn't last the season. Doubt me now?

So you predicted a 41 year old, 20 year NFL vet, who had injury trouble the past couple years, wouldn't make it through the season? LOL. Man I bet that was a tough prediction to make!

That would be be "Steeler-like." When the goin' gets tough, find another team. I actually got one of those Steelers fans to quit rooting for them.

I have nothing but respect for the Steeler organization (except Ben and Whines Hard). It's their inbred hilljack fans (Ewok & Heretic excluded) that I can't stand.

So, do you still want that McDonald's snack wrap?

Sorry BR. I dont roll like that. If you're still interested though,go to the gay pride in the politics forum and maybe you can get hooked up.

Not blackballed....just leave the namecalling out of them. No need for "cunt", "peckerbreath", and other names to be directed at other users.

The Steelers defense will take it as a personal assault to their collective manhood that Cleveland is sending out a rookie to try to beat them. Long afternoon for #12 and all the punishment he is going to take isn't his fault.

Can you imagine how McCoy will be lifted up if the Browns pull out the W? What a way to make your pro debut that would be.

I wish Mccoy all the love and happiness in his pursuit of a NFL career. I hope for an injury free game and may the best team win. I hope both teams get together before the contest and shake hands and dwell in the fact that they are able to make millions playing the game of football. I'm hoping both teams comes to the get together at the triangle after the game to celebrate another day of happiness in the NFL. Are you happy now Mantooth? Or is this some kind of infraction?

How is this guy special? I mean i havent followed him all year, but from what I saw in the game on sunday (the only browns game ive watchedt his year)He looked like a glorified full back. Kinda like Mike Alstott

He is special because he drags people....he gets you that extra yard or two. He is a rare breed in today's game. With that being said, his running style will probably shorten his season and career.

he brings a sense of toughness to the team and to the backfield. guy goes all out, every play. had over 100 yards against Cincy and Baltimore, and I believe that was the first 100 yard rusher the Ravens have given up in a longgg time. Only downside is he could be limited by injuries the rest of the year.

He was injured throughout the game and reaggravated the injury on the TD reception and running down the defender after the interception that was called back. He was limping off the field after every play he was in. Was a shame, too. Because up to and including the TD catch he was having a great game and was forcing Atlanta to bring the house to stop the run which opened up the flanks and short range passing to MoMass, Stuckey, Hillis out of the backfield, Cribbs, etc. Had Wallace not gotten injured, even with a banged up Hillis, we would've won as Atlanta was doing everything they could to stop the run and letting our QB beat them, which Wallace WAS doing until his injury.

As for McCoy, if he goes out and does well, we do not have a QB controversy. He was drafted to be the future starter. If he does well. Then that's what he is, and has always been setup to be. No QB competition needed. But, that said, a rookie making his first start in a huge game against a division rival, a great defense in a hostile environment where they're out for blood does not bode well. But, this is why he signed the big contract and has been practicing on the team for weeks was to lead up to this point.

Daboll, though, has to use the Steelers strength against them. Daboll has to know Pittsburgh defenders are going to pin their ears back and attack, attack, attack the backfield. We need screens, draws, shuffle passes, wildcat formations, and misdirection to keep the defense off balance. We need to see a lot of Cribbs at QB, RB, and WR. We also need to establish the run if for nothing more than to keep the blitz honest, if not to actually gain significant yardage.

Yeah I guess he is a bruiser, but it seems like its a rare breed in the NFL because the NFL likes home run hitter RB's who have a mix of speed and power. Hillis looked to me like he had no intention of outrunning nayone or making anyone miss, just lowering his shoulder and getting like 3 or 4 yards.

Idk if he was having a great game until he reaggravatedhis injury, he was under 30 yards and had quite a few carries. He really was a non factor until that TD catch

Against the Falcons. He also had over 100 yards against the Ravens defense......I dont think there is any question that the Ravens defense is better than the Falcons.

I also think that people underestimate his speed. This is a guy that used to return kicks/punts at Arkansas.
