Just a tad bit better than "fine". Not directing this towards you, but it's pretty amazing how underrated the guy is.....

unfortunately, the lack of postseason success follows many great players

I would disagree with him being underrated. A great back, but he being the top stat getter during the rise of fantasy football popularity put him in the spotlight.

I think he's highly underrated, especially considering he was just playing last year, was the best of the last decade, and was the man during this fantasy era as previously stated.
He's right there stat-wise with the very best, yet most won't put him in that elite category. He's also not a household name for how great he has been for the last decade+.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I think LT is highly underrated.....same with Edge as well.

I think he's properly rated, but if I had to choose overrated or underrated (again, I don't think I'd have to) I'd actually say he's probably overrated by more people than underrated. That said, incredible career.

Doesn't feel like he's been in the league 11 seasons. His career went by so quick

Do y'all think he will add a 2012-2012 on the Chargers' side?
