Fact: Matt Forte is The Most Underrated Player in Football

[brahmabull117]

600+ total yards in just 4 games already...on pace for about 2600 yards on the season


it will be a real crime if this guy is not voted for the pro bowl, he's a top 5 all purpose back in the league right now

[chargers4222]

you have finally said something i agree with

[chargers4222]

also, jacoby ford

[dlunc3]

he is what he is.... a 1,000/1,200 rushing yard back, with 55/65 catches for 500/600 yards... and throw in about 10 tds to that mix....

a good back, not the best..

he has had a great start to this yr, and hopefully he can keep it up. I like the guy... but seems like the kinda guy who will always be above average, but never the top tier.... i hope he proves me wrong

[Night-Tripper]

You do know the difference between a fact and opinion, don't you?

[broadway6]

my fantasy team loves Forte

The fact that he's been as good as he has the last couple of seasons on a terrible offensive team is incredible. Put him in the rams 1999-2001 team and he's putting up marshall faulk numbers



hell, he's probably gonna put up marshall faulk numbers this year anyways

[face]

andre johnson is pretty good too.

[chargers4222]

top 10 nfl running back rankings by overall skill and worth- rice, foster, cj, ap, mccoy, charles, forte, run dmc, turner, mendenhall

[dlunc3]

i think turner and mendenhall are products of their systems... i agree with the others as the top 8 (maybe in different order though--def dmc ahead of forte... he could be #1 when healthy)

Cmon now, Brahma. You're comparing Forte to the best all-purpose back ever and saying he'd put up similar numbers? I like Forte, he has a lot of potential, but he is not THAT good. Not yet at least

he's already got 630 rush/rec yards thru 4 games, I see him putting up 1600-2000+ all purpose yards this year

You don't think he'll disappear for a few games like he did last year? He should get close to 1600-1800 yards, but no way in hell is he as good as Faulk

[mstone897]

Please remember what he did this past week was against the Panthers. It really shouldn't count.

Forte is pretty damn good....Faulk had a good O-line and Kurt Warner....Forte has Cutler and a $hit Oline

[NYSportsGuy210]

When healthy and used properly yes Forte is a beast. Very dangerous on YAC.

I agree about Forte being good, but comparing Forte, right now, to a Hall of Famer is ridiculous
