Luke Kuechly should be mentioned as well.

Murray has been legit, and his numbers are better because of sheer volume.

But holy frick, sit down and watch Bell play. He has dropped weight and looks like a bigger version of Lesean McCoy. With power. He's a great receiver too and doesn't fumble like Murray does.


Watt is great as usual, but I dont think he has been as dominant as usual. That pick 6 he had was awesome but i think its kinda making him shine brighter then what he has been playing

Jordy Nelson statistically is having a better season than Thomas. So is a bunch of other wrs.

Higher catch/target ratio, yards after catch is way more, yards per game, etc.

I'd say either Justin Smith, JJ Watt, Luke Kuechly, Patrick Willis or Jimmy Graham.

Oh I agree Bell has been awesome.

I wasnt too impressed with him last year. Thought he was a solid RB, but not great. He was big and powerful, but not that explosive or shifty. But holy frick, losing 20lbs has transformed him out there. Dude is explosive as hell now and shifty, great vision, and still powerful. But my favorite part about his game is his patience. Hes easily the most patient RB in the NFL right now. And was patient last year, but lacked the burst to explode through the hole after being patient. Now, hes patient and allows his OL to get in front of him and when the hole opens up he bursts through there at full speed.

Hes def a top RB in the NFL. But still gotta give the nod to Murray. He does have a fumbling issue though, and it will be interesting to see if he can stay healthy this year because he is getting so many touches per game. Its crazy to think Murray was the 6th RB taken in 2011 draft. Mark Ingram, Ryan Williams, Shane Vereen, Mikel Leshoure, and Daniel Thomas were all selected ahead of him. Dont understand that. Murray was an excellent RB in college and had a very very good combine too.

This season, Watt leads the league in quarterback hurries and knockdowns with 21. He also has recorded two sacks and returned an interception for a touchdown.


Add an offensive touchdown, 19 tackles, 3 passes defended, 1 fumble recovery, and 4 TFL's...in 5 games.

C'mon Lester! He's been just as disruptive as he ever has.

BUT...I will admit the Dallas O-line did a great job on him. Even blocking him with one guy on several occasions.

Yea that Watt vs Smith matchup was awesome. Matchup that was between arguably the best LT vs DLman.

I don't know how to host a .gif and post it in the thread. But this .gif should definitely go in here.

Can someone help me out?

Smith is a stud.... IMO the best LT in the NFL.

I remember a thread on here a few months ago when the Cowboys signed him to that 8 year, $97.6m deal. A lot of people laughed about it and thought it was dumb. I thought it was 1 of the best things Dallas has done in a while. Smith is still just 23years old and already in his 3rd year in the league and has become an elite LT. I thought it was a no brainer.
