1. Kevin Williams - Minnesota Vikings

94 games started, 42.5 sacks, 4 INTs, 5 forced fumbles, 4 TDs, 223 tackles, *4-time Pro Bowler and All-Pro

Kevin Williams is without question the very best defensive tackle in the entire NFL.
....and has only mised 2 games in his whole career.
Kevin Williams has a decent claim at best DT in the league, but given that from 2005-2007 that he was the second best DT on his own team, I'm inclined to believe that Haynesworth is the more dominant of the two.

I think Kevin passed Pat last year as best 'Williams' on the Vikings, but I think most would agree that Haynesworth is more dominant, if a little less durable.

Thank you. Having Giants fans on a Redskins board is funny enough. Having Giants fans with such limited football knowledge is even funnier.

We should not forget that Eli's contract is a long one and wages go up every year. By the end of the deal Eli likely will not be close to being the best-paid qb because other contracts will have surpassed his by then.

So you think this is the only place that other teams fans come and exchange opinions and express thoughts?So there are no Skins fans on any Giant boards...or Eagle or Cowboys?

Did I say that? You're free to do whatever you want, and I have no issue with you whatsoever. You contribute around here, and I'm totally cool with that.

For me personally though, I wouldn't ever join a Giants/Eagles/Cowboys board and spend my time struggling to convince opposing fans that my team's players are good. It just seems like a frustrating exercise in futility, IMO. But to each his own.

Well, I was always told..."exercise" is good for me.

LOL classic this is just too funny. Why on earth would someone think JC was better than Eli before the season started. When I last checked Eli is the only QB in the division that won a Superbowl. I think he is the only QB to beat NE Pats with Tom Brady at Qb. I may be wrong.

Ha this happened to me once. I remember when Memphisskin told me Tashard Choice was only worthy being on an arena football team. Right now that guy is more productive than a few starters in this league.

Its somewhat frustrating but when you can revisit a thread and put some opposing fans in their place its classic. I don't post often or post to make fun of a rival team just some opinions about football in general. Plus this website seems to always have some Cowboy threads every week which always boggled my mind. I don't know if its due to the in closet fans or just pure hate lol. Cowboy sites rarely have Redskin/Eagle/Giant anything on it.

Well Cowboys fans have a tendency to talk a lot of trash and conveniently disappear when their team is sucking it up...like right now when they lost to Denver and had to go to OT to beat the lowly Chiefs (as we Redskins fan like to call, a moral defeat). I could be wrong, but you're the first Cowboys fan to show up in the past two weeks.

Well its not a matter of Abracadabra to me its more of when I have the time. Your statement could be applied vice versa. Some skin fans only want to discuss Dallas if they lose, then post about how much Dallas sucks but when Dallas gets a win its a different story so what do you really expect?

My team still sucks right now even after a win or "moral defeat" yesterday. Win or lose the next several games Dallas will not make the playoffs and I am ok with that. Not a big deal to me at this point I can only hope next season some serious changes are made. Dallas is not made to compete with the good teams or on the verge of being good teams.
