I do have to say i think this guy does lose credibility on on #3 of his list. can you see why.

6. Dolphins' starting quarterback â€“A.J. Feeley(I) vs. Gus Frerotte: Yeah, we're not very excited about this one, either. Both quarterbacks are only slightly more exciting than watching grass grow, and even that might be pushing it. Even so, this should be the most heated quarterback battle of the summer. The Dolphins sent a second-round draft pick to the Eagles to obtain Feeley last year, but the brain wizards who made that absurd trade are no longer employed by the team. In fact, Frerotte actually has the inside track thanks to his knowledge of new offensive coordinator Scott Linehan's system, which stems from the time they spent together in Minnesota. Unfortunately, head coach Nick Saban took the easy way out by listing both signal callers as starters on his first depth chart. Weak, Nick. Very weak. Projected winner: Frerotte, but that could change more than once this summer.

10. Dolphins' starting running back â€“ Ronnie Brown vs. Ricky Williams: We don't even consider this a battle, but countless fantasy owners have been asking us about this situation ever since Ricky agreed to return from yoga class and other "recreational activities." The Dolphins used the No. 2 overall pick in the draft to obtain Brown, who will be the starter once he inks his rookie contract. Meanwhile, Saban will give Ricky a chance to increase his stock during the preseason while hoping that team officials can find another team desperate enough to give up something of value in exchange for the bearded one. Good luck with that, Nick. Projected winner: Brown, and it's not even close.

I hope Lee Suggs wins the starting quarterback spot

Very strange list, I mean a kicker battle at number 8. But then again I really can't think of any he left off.

What's wrong with #3?

Browns' starting quarterback â€“ Lee Suggs(I) vs. Reuben Droughns: :rofl3: :rofl3: :rofl3:

ercin13 · 08-03-2005, 07:52 PM

maybe because he said quarterback, it should have been RB

inFINSible · 08-03-2005, 07:55 PM

Ahhhh...I see it now....I just assumed it said RB without reading it....

It's a typo. It states quarterback, but names Suggs and Droughns.
Sorry, while I was typing someone else answered-not trying to drill it into your head.

That's alright....Godfater said something about the guy losing all credibility so, I was looking for something that would cause that.....wasn't looking for a simple typo. :confused2:

Well if your a professional writter i would think you would proofread your articals first. and if your doing a piece on postion battles you should at least have the correct positions.

Looks like the editor dropped the ball also. Either way, a simple typo doesn't crush the guy's dredibilty. You still know what he meant, right?
