Makes sense. Team accomplishment gives Brady the nod over Brees and eye test elevates Rodgers.

Par for the course.

Frank gore had about 9700 rushing yards that decade, and McCoy has over 10,000



Bell only had around 6,000.


And even when you add in receiving yards, both Gore and McCoy are above Bell

Is there a more disrespected player than Drew Brees?

He is jsut the career leader in Completions, Passing Yards, and TDs.

He threw for 5000 yards 5 times out of the 12 TOTAL times anyone has thrown for 5000 yards.

He has the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 6th highest completion percentage in a season.

He's won a superbowl with a historically shitty team. For most of his career he hasn't had insane supporting cast. Don't get me wrong, Colston and PT and Henderson are great, but he made Jimmy Graham. Thomas is probably the first superstar WR he has ever played with in New Orleans.

Anyway. Not putting him top 2 is wild.

Bell is another guy who was used as a receiving back and had better numbers than Sproles.

I sort of assumed the reason this was posted here was to start something because Brees was left off.

Whoever was saying Carroll doesn't deserve this...he's done a great job with a Seahawks team that has lost a ton of talent. The Legion of Boom is gone, so is Marshawn, yet Carroll has put up 7 seasons of 10+ wins in the last 8 years, all of which were playoff seasons. The one sub 10 win season was 9 wins.

What other coach touches that?

I mean when you look at the last decade

Him and Bill are the only 2 people to go to multiple superbowls.

Yeah he lost one, but he also steam rolled Manning in the other.

The only reason I can make sense of Rodgers over Drew is the timing of their SB wins... Drew has been the better QB through the decade in its entirety. Best QB even. Brady got those damn rings tho...

Kelce over Jimmy Graham, not sure about that. Kelce has more accolades, but part of that is bc Jimmy G was going head to head with Gronk



Jason Whitten had more yards & catches than any TE during the decade.

Rodgers also has a ring this decade and Brees doesn't.

I'm not hating on Brees. He's tremendous, but especially in just the 2010's, Rodgers probably has more team accomplishments.

I'm just here to point out the ad I'm seeing at the bottom of this page on my phone from sports chew. Showing Frank Reich at QB vs Dallas. It says, "you won't believe this comeback!" Well, no shite! The Bills lost 52-17. Piss poor effort. It's like they're not even trying. Nobody falls for the ole, check out #6 anymore...... do they?
