Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

Was V Jackson in? I didn't see him, but I've been following on and off.
Hard to picture him being above Calvin Johnson, who was in at 25 last night, I think.
Broncos only had Bailey and Lloyd so far, but I thought I'd heard that the Broncos still had one to go. It's kinda hard imagining Clady or Dum in the top 20 though, especially with Dum's injury last year.
This is one show that I don't get. It suppose to be the top 100 from the 2010 season, but they show more highlights of players from previous seasons than they do for the 2010 season.

It's the top players for 2011. How players are projected to do this year based on previous years. I think the show just 'looks' a little better if they have several years' highlights to chose from.
Guys like Bailey, other shutdown corners, or lockdown Tackles have fewer highlights to choose from, and they have several minutes to fill.

Thanx for the correction, 2011. That makes sense for the Bailey's and Ngata's of the world, but I didn't understand why they did the same for WR's, RB's, and LB's.
I think Lloyd and Champ should've been on that list, BUT, I think Champ was rated to high, IMO. And how in the world did McNabb make it on that list is beyond me. i haven't been watching it enough to have a good debate about it, but from i've seen, it's definately an interesting order.
Vick being rated higher than Rivers just proves how much of a joke and popularity contest these rankings are.
Just compare Rivers and Vicks stats and remember the weapons they had on their offense last season and you'll know who's the better QB.
The players did this voting, and for some reason they all love Vick and all hate Rivers.
So I wasn't surprised to see Rivers ranked outside of the top 25.
While a guy who's been in prison and didn't even play a complete season has one good stretch and is suddenly better than Rivers?
QB's shoulda been ranked as such
Brady 1st, Rodgers 2nd, Rivers 3rd, P. Manning 4th, Brees 5th, Roethlisburger 6th, Vick 7th, 8-10 can be in any order.
I'm glad Big Ben was ranked low, he is highly overrated. Do you know that the only two times the Steelers defense did not rank in the top 10 in points allowed, he failed to lead them into the playoffs?
Then I read comments like this from idiotic Steeler fans:
"ridiculous Philip Rivers better then Ben Roethlisberger? Ben has been to 3 Super Bowls and has won 2?What has rivers ever done?"
As if this is the NBA and its basically 5 vs 5 and whoever gets 2 superstars wins. The NFL is a team sport. Rivers has done more than his fair share. Only time will tell if he gets ring or not. But Big Ben has done a mediocre job while his defense saves his butt.

You cant be serious!!!
There is no way Rivers is the 3rd best QB in the NFL! Manning & Brees below Rivers??? That is the most homer thing I have ever read!
Last time I checked Manning & Brees both took their teams to the Playoffs last year and also have been Super Bowl MVP's. All while Rivers lead his talent heavy Chargers to a .500 record in probably the 2nd worst division in football. Doesnt sound like a top 25 player to me!

yet the year before he took a team that had the worst running game and a very mediocre defense to 13 wins and a first round bye in the playoffs.
i Can think of one or maybe two other guys in the league who have proven they can do something like that.
