Re: The sporting news: coles over santana
Are you joking me? I dont think this can be possible. Even the likes of Dr. Z and Peter King would have a hard time ranking coles over moss after the seasons both of them had last year.

Re: The sporting news: coles over santana
I deleted your other thread about this.
Anyway, I think PFW's scouting guide also has Coles over Santana. They also have Jimmy Smith, the retired Jimmy Smith, over Santana. And they have Curtis Martin at #7 at RB, and Larry Johnson at #11. I don't think these are fantasy rankings per se, but still.The criteria was overall career performance, 2005 performance, and career potential. LJ easily takes two of three of those.

Maybe they were picking names out of a hat.

Re: The sporting news: coles over santana
Moss has single season receiving yards record for the Washington Redskins Coles doesn't.
End of f'n story. Maybe Peter King's influence? hahahahhahha.

Re: The sporting news: coles over santana
My only guess is that these people may see Santana's '05 season as a bit of a fluke, which is crap.
Plus, even if you make the arguement that Coles is a better individual player you have to remember that the WR can't throw himself the ball. The jets have an o-line with 2 rookies and a qb with a perma-seperated shoulder. So unless Coles can break every 3yrd out pattern for 80 yards I'll stick with Santana.

Re: The sporting news: coles over santana
Right now, the only place Coles comes in ahead of Moss is the dictionary.
Not only does Washington have a more dynamic offense, but (surprisingly) they have a more stable QB picture. This shouldn't even be close.

Did you pay money for that bit of in-depth analysis?

Sure puts the 'anal' in analysis, which is where they can shove it.

Re: The sporting news: coles over santana
During the off season, there have been quite a few puff pieces written about LC and his battles w/ some pretty awful demons. I think that is the real reason why he has become a real trendy sleeper pick this year.
