Who do you think is the best Defensive lineman n the NFL? And their runner up?\n(This includes Defensive tackles, nose tackles and defensive ends.) \nI think its Julius Peppers and then as a runner up: Patrick Kerney.

Julius Peppers.  His stats will never tell the story.  His teammates will reap the rewards of his greatness for a long time.  The amount of attention he deserves (and gets) allows his teammates to rack up stats.

I would honestly take singletary over Butkus. He wasn't as big as Butkus, and may not have been as vicious, but I think Singletary was a smarter player and had incredible instincts. If he wasn't in on a tackle, he was never more than two yards away. He just seemed to instantly know where every play was going and how to get there unobstructed. I would love to see him come in as the Bears D-coordinator if Rivera ends up getting a head coach job. It kills me seeing him coaching the goddamn 9ers. It turns my stomach seeing him wearing any colors but navy and orange.

I hate the dude, but I gotta say Plaxico Burress.  Plaxico is good for a TD due to his size and the fact that he is Mannings go to receiver.  \n\nEvans is facing a very tough pass defense in the Jags.  The Jags are 5th overall in pass defense and they have given up just 9 TD's through the air and have forced 14 INTs.  Losman is a young and lesser talented QB than Eli, and facing this D will hold him down this game which means Evans wont do much either.  \n\nOn the other hand...Tennessee is the 5th worst pass defense in the league, giving up 18 pass TD's and just having 8 INTs.  The problem I see is that Eli is still young and makes alot of mistakes especially during the second half of the season.  Statistically he is the absolutely worst QB in the NFL during the second half of the season since he's been in the league.  Last year he fell off dramatically and this season he has done the same.  The Giants ended the first half with a 5 game winning streak and Eli playing great, theyve played 2 games since and are 0-2 and Eli has been awful.  But I think this game gets him back on track and even when Eli is bad Plaxico usually finds the endzone.  Tiki will get alot more carries this game than last which takes off alot of pressure on Eli, which will make it easier to find Shockey and most importantly Plaxico.  \n\nL. Evans - 4 rec. 47 yds\nP. Burress - 7 rec. 94 yds 1 TD

I would go with Da Bears.  They have more offensive weapons to contend with so it should keep the pats defense on the field longer.  The Bears also have the #1 defense in the league...gotta go with your best option.

Keano, will always be remembered.  He was the most brutally honest, determined football player I've ever had the pleasure of watching, game in and game out.  Roy will go down in the books as the toughest son of a bitch to play the game, despite what some people think.  Not everyone will agree.  But, I think Keane is the best defensive midfielder ever.  Of all players in their prime, nobody was better than Captain Keano!  \n\nKeane, a Manc in our hearts, forever!

Tiki Barber\n\nYou should go with Tiki because of his good matchup against a Tennessee Defense which is ranked 31st Overall(375.9 ypg), and 30th against the Run(148.1 ypg)\nSo look for Tiki to have a 150+ yard day on the ground with a TD or two.\n\nHope this helps,\nGood luck.

The Texans are on the verge of being respectable.  One of their problems is that they play in a tough division.  They have to play Indy twice every season.  And depending on how the other teams are doing they also have to contend with Jacksonville and the Titans.\n\nI don't think David Carr is their answer.  Everyone thinks he just needs a good line and then he will blossom.  Well I have a feeling after this season we will see him leaving Houston.  He has been banged up so much that I think he is constantly thinking about the sack.  This will prevent him from being successful.\n\nReggie Bush will not be the answer either.  Houston already has a respectable RB.\n\nThe current rumor (which is probably false) is that Houston is seriously considering trading down.  They don't want to have to take Bush.  The problem is finding a partner. \n\nThe Saints won't trade up.  In fact they are looking to trade down.  The Titans and Jets are probably comfortable where they are. \n\nThe Packers could use Bush, but they are sitting pretty at number 5.  They will find a quality player to fit their many needs at this spot.\n\nSF or Oakland might be interesting positions.  Both of them could use Bush and that is not too far for Houston to fall and still pick up quality.\n\nWhat's going to happen? No one knows for sure, but I think Houston is hoping to come in 2nd in their division and maybe a chance at a Wildcard spot.

Sorry I'm a Steelers Fan!!!LOL\n\nI think the Jets should pick up Leinart if he is available. I also think they should pick RB DeAngelo Williams. They need to pick him before it is to late he needs a little work but will be a great asset.

Joey Harrington...hes doing real well this season...ahman green...remeber hes still that 1,000 yard back..(same guy)...hes gonna get a lot of touches look for him to have a good day\n\njulius jones doesnt get touchdowns as much becuse marion barber is taking them all away...julius gets them down the field and then marion punches it in...same thing is going on in new york...tiki runs it all the way down and then brandon punches it in

Tiki Barber. I just love that man. He really just looks like the nicest guy, like you could go hang out with him. \n\nI also am starting to really like Cato June. He makes some good plays for that Indi defense. You are right though, Harrison is a fantastic WR. I hope he stays with Indi for a good, long time. :)

always TO....and i would say Henderson.  Just because Asanti Samuel has been playing great for NE, and he will be covering Roy Williams....so far no one has been able to cover Henderson, and i cant see anyone on SF covering him....and the fact that Joe Horn will probably be covered by SFs #1 corner, leaving Henderson with someone crappy covering him.

I would say Mario, a good RB is hard to get but a GREAT DE is much much harder to get your hands on. Super Mario will definetly be a great addition to a team that needs defensive talent. Bush is definetly talented, but sometimes you wonder, especially in that LenDale White and him almost shared the carries last year, and you can be as fast as you want but if you are not durable it wont help.

J Montana was the best\n\nLawrence Taylor second\n\nDan Marino&#92;\n\n\nbest of the best

The Raiders D.... well, they are monsters against the pass, they really make man-coverage work for them.  Against the Chargers last week, they were actually playing 4-4 defense in an effort to keep Tomlinson out of the game... it didn't work.  If a guy can break a 44 yd run on you when you've got 8 men in the box, you need work on your run stopping.  On the other hand, L.T. may not be human.  I do think they've been weak against the run this year, which is why I wouldn't put them up there with the Ravens or Bears D, I would liken them to the Browns D this year, good but not good enough to win them games.

Yes, Henry's bench TDs are VERY annoying. I have him on my roster as well, but he's buried behind T.O. and T.J. Housh, so I don't lose sleep.\n\nI'd go with Furrey, because SF is so wretched, and they'll concentrate on trying to limit Roy Williams.  Besides, the inconsistent Jets offense against the Pats in New England, coming off a loss...?  I'll pass on that matchup (and Pennington won't)

Nicely thought out answer ptaewk!  Actually...the GB rushing defense has not been all that bad this season (about 10th in the league) but it is their passing defense that makes them a bad defense. \n\nWith that being said...I would go with Taylor and McGahee since the Baltimore defense is stellar.

I don't know about Volume but some really good defensive players come out of USC.\n\nPolamalu, Seau, McGinest, Tatupu are some of the best names today.
