[QUOTE="Veretax, post: 215501, member: 1092"] [b]Re: Let's be clear about what a "game managing" quarterback[/b] I'm going to have to disagree with you on having a top tier running Back. Grant has had some good games, but let's see how he does when people are keying on him and trying to make A-Rod win games. I can think of at least ten backs that right now I'd rate higher then Grant: Want me to list them? (Active Backs) 1. Ladanian Tomlinson - San Diego Chargers 2. Adrian Peterson - Minnesota Vikings 3. Steven Jackson - St. Louis Rams 4. Clinton Portis - Washington Redskins 5. Jamal Lewis - Cleveland Browns 6. Brian Westbrook - Philadelphia Eagles 7. Joseph Addai - Indianapolis Colts 8. Frank Gore - San Francisco 49ers 9. Warrick Dunn - Tampa Bay 10. Fred Taylor - Jacksonville Jaguars Now could grant in the long run be better then these guys??? Maybe but with the exception of Peterson, Gore, and maybe Jackson, all of them have proven both Longevity and consistent production on the field of play. If Grant can continue to play the way he did in the Play offs (I mean the Seattle game, not the NY Game) then he may earn a spot in the current top 10 but he's not a top ten back. Not yet anyways. Other than that point I think I agree, if the OLine improves at run blocking and opens lanes then Grant will get his chance to earn a spot in the top ten. Ironic that Reggie Bush didn't make my cut for top Ten, nor did Larry Johnson, or Willie Parker of the Steelers. I wonder who else didn't make the top ten that would fit in the top 15 or 20. [/QUOTE]
