I like this ranking. I thought the panthers would be lower, tho.

Thats basically what is being done here. More like Carolina over the Bears, because nobody really expects the Rams to be a contender, but they do expect us to be one. And if the Bears lost Urlacher, Jones, and a nickel CB all at the same time? Perhaps I would.

3) Hawaiian Surge (8-0, 1st W) - but the loss of Ladanian Vick, Derrick Johnson, and John Smith all at the same time will really hurt their efforts on the field. I bet they could still beat the Falcons.

7) Los Angeles Falcons (2-7, 3rd E) - Wins are hard to come by in LA for the third straight season, though they can take pride in winning one of the strangest games of the season against the Dawgs. Offensively Deuce Fitzgerald remains their only playmaker, and his capacity will suffer since the Falcons permitted QB Deron Lucas to depart to run the rival Wolves. Defensively they're got a handful of standout players, and are really just a couple pieces away from having a strong unit. But until they can find those last couple of pieces, get their rookie QB Nat Reay up to speed, and get Camell Clayton going on a consistent basis, they'll continue to lose a lot of close ones. I thought I was alone on this one... And yes we do need Camell and Reay to step up and some help on defense.

The good news there is that QBs take very little time in this league to develop, and as long as she stays active she should be ready for prime time when we start season 4.

I've seen what happens when Lipton runs. I don't think it helps the team, to be honest.

Dan Marino used to be the least-sacked QB year in and year out, and that dude couldn't beat my 20-month old in a foot race.

true real Qb's can run though The only good quarterbacks at running in Madden are Donovan McNabb and Mike Vick, Culpepper can run a little too.

The second a receiver got open, BOOM! The ball was gone and into his hands. He had by far the quickest release of any QB in history, bar none. The 85 Bears lost to Miami because their defense couldn't get to Marino because he would get rid of the ball before they got near him.

The 85 Bears lost to Miami because their defense couldn't get to Marino because he would get rid of the ball before they got near him. Indeed. Marino also possessed a keen sense of the pocket, and whenever someone would come in after him, he'd take a dinky little shuffle step, usually forward, and a defender flying in for a big hit would miss him completely.

Are those things you will have over Lipton with the same attributes and being slower?
