      Jerry's records will be broken. The NFL outlawed defense.

      With that said he had the most skill. He worked hard. Randy Moss, Megatron, Andre Johnson and others have more talent but Rice worked hard and was consistent. Could you say the same about Moss? I still think Randy Moss was the most dangerous receiver in his prime but Rice wins the career achievement award. CJ is good and hasn't even reached his prime yet.

        No, seriously - what Calvin Johnson has against him catching Rice (if this were even a serious conversation) is who's behind center at Detroit. Think he's as good as Jomo? And that after he retires, he's gonna get a QB like Young throwing to him?

                  Nah, that's reserved for your threads with the Eagles reaching the playoffs.

                            probably true, but definitely debatable.. he has had an enormous yr no doubt about that... but lets not forget about guy over in Arizona... Fitz is also an absolute freak, with or without a real qb

                                  Megatron is the best active WR. No doubt about it.

                                      Makes no sense. You must not of been watching any Lions games.

                                      Bosh isn't all that bad anyway.

                                        LMFAO , Comparing anyone with 23 is foolish. Nobody did more with less than MJ. Jerry played on all star teams 95% of his career. He had two top ten all time qbs throwing to him. Countless weapons alongside him. Not to mention some of the best defenses nobody talks about. Besides Pip , seriously who else did 23 have. There were many , many times when the bulls played with only 1-2 scoring options on the court as their teams were built around defense. One could argue that Rice wasn't even the best player on the field syringe those championships. Jordan is in a class by himself.

                                          this isnt a time for a jordan argument, bc he is hands down the best ever... but how many games did the bulls win the yr he retired the first time? that says enough about that team... they were still very good without him... we saw how good lebrons old team was without him last yr

                                                Too early to tell or even suggest it. Leave it @ that. Appreciate what he is doing now and evaluate him when his career is OVER. Not in the middle of it.

                                                But to suggest now is laughable

                                                  You misspelled your username...the correct spelling is "dunce". How about them Eagles? Who are they playing in the playoffs again?

                                                      LOL What time are the Eagles playing again. This guy is terrible. There's nothing worse than a homer on here. They have zero insight to offer. LOL If you want proof check out his thread(s). Not only did he mark himself as one of sbr's dumber posters. He promised to not post for a while , but couldn't live without fukin sbr. How fukin sad is that.

                                                          You are easily one of the worst posters on here. Easily one of the biggest loudmouths. It's hilarious that your trying to say I'm 18 or w/e. When your clearly a fanboy homer. Your square kid , face facts. It wasn't hard to see through your bs eagles , but losers , like you stuck with them ALL YEAR LONG , I might add.
                                                          A 12 y/o could figure out they had trouble defending the a-gap blitz and had major issues at the linebacker position. Your loser team spent so much money at the cb position , only teams spread you and turned them all into fs's. Only homer fanboys like you didn't see this because of low football iq. This was pointed by many before the season.
                                                          BTW keep back tracking on " I'll never post on here until ..." Just like your team , you keep making excuses. Great call on Atl , when you going tout d-lang.

                                                            you joined the site like 3 weeks ago lol you need a girl man.. backtracking every thread back since september too much time on your hands..

                                                            weird how vegas has this team as the #7 in their power rankings after the regular season huh? since they are so bad right? their problem was there were too many new pieces in a new system with no offseason... it took too long for them to get on the same page

                                                            now its almost your bedtime... go brush your teeth

He would have had at least 35-45 more tds , maybe 3500-4500 more yards. If he played his career with those guys and stuck around like jerry , he would have smashed his records.
