Tuck.....but on a related note, Corey Mays has been one of very few bright spots for my putrid Chiefs.

He isnt getting a whole lot of help. He doesnt have anyone to throw to and has no running game.

Last year when he had Edwards and Winslow he put up some decent numbers when he was healthy

His team is horrible, yes. However, when he did have time to get a throw off, a lot of them were horrible. He threw a small five yard screen at knee height on his running back on one play. On another, Quinn overthrew Mike Furrey on a quick screen, where he had to simply turn and fire the ball to the sideline. The ball went way over Furrey's head. He threw two interceptions, both of which were his fault. Nobody wants to mention the two deep balls that went ten to twenty yards out of bounds.

kind of unfair to start the kid in his first game back in 6 games against the #1 defense in the country.

he'll be fine with some players around him and some decent play calls

Yea, both interceptions hit the receivers in the wrong part of the hands...

Ryan Harris was looking pretty good for Denver before he got injured. Carlson looks pretty good up in Seattle too

I was gonna say Carlson also. Tuck is a beast. Ryan Grant is a solid back but there are better players

Ryan Harris... no love for many offensive lineman but Harris is a brick wall when healthy.

Hey now lets not forget about Nedu Ndukwe! Hes a pretty good back, should see Bruton's name pop up soon too. But right now its no doubt between Tuck and Grant. As soon as Brady gets some protection and recievers he may be the next best thing

John FREAKIN Carney!!! What current player has put up more points in their career than this guy? If we are talking current season impact, I would have to say Tuck or Carlson or Grant.

Tuck easily. He's one of the best defensive ends in the league.

Hunter Smith is a terrible punter who out-kicks his coverage. Carlson is having a disappointing year. Ryan Harris, Corey Mays, and Chinedum Ndukwe are all very good players. Brady Quinn is terrible.

I am a little Biased as a Seahawk Fan. But, Carlson is a receiving stud. The problem is that the Hawks offensive line is horrible, and he has to stay in a block so much more.

As a G-men fan I'm biased as hell. But despite that, I don't think I'm off base to say Justin Tuck.

Apparently Bruton is having a monster ST year for Denver. Grimes still on Broncos roster?
