edge receiving
433 receptions    3364 yards

barry sanders
352 receptions   2921 yards

so i mean ya

u can go ahead because u just talk and have nothing backing up any of ur arguments

reality backs me up!! LOL

how did Barry Sanders get in this debate? You couldn't win the Faulk one now you want to do Edge vs Barry. I ain't got time to do this everyday. Nobody said "EDGE SUCKED".....he didn't. He just isn't a hall of fame player. Sorry!

well 1st i asked u if faulk was better then barry since faulk is so awesome cause he has a million receiving yards and u ducked that question because of course u know sanders didn't have many receiving yards so that woulda put a clear hole in ur dumb ass arguement making ur argument as to y faulk is better then edge clearly irrelevant

When Edge goes to the HOF you look me up. I will fly you there and pay for your hotel and food.

I'm easy to find and get a hold of! Really I am.

Its not even a bet cause when Edge doesn't get in you don't have to give me nothing. Don't worry!

After the game was already lost and the Patriots had already quit playing or were laughing so hard it was tough for them to cover anyone.
You have only 1 job as a backup QB, be ready when the starter goes down. He didn't do his job.
No he didn't. Henne put points on the board against every opponent he faced except for New England in that last game where he was pulled half way into the game. Thigpen managed zero points in the 1 game that he started and he played the whole game. I don't care if it was a short week and Chicago isn't that great, Thigpen just made them look like the '85 Bears. Henne came back the next week even after being injured and looked much better than Thigpen did.

There is a difference between being 3rd string and backup. Henne was worse against the browns, ravens and patriots than thigpens start against chicago.  This season is going to absolutely suck.  Henne is a big pile of shit, and instead of getting a legit qb, that pile of shit ireland let thigpen go and got a 3rd stringer from a terrible team.

CLE is conceded.
Against BAL, Henne had more INTs but was at least able to move the ball, getting nearly double the net passing yards.  Thigpen was completely ineffective at even moving the ball; he couldn't even get the team into field goal range.
Against NE, Henne played for 20 minutes.  Comparing his stats to Thigpen's full game is absurd.

Edge's career was too short in terms of being a top player and his stats don't match up to other RB's in the hall of fame.

Edge is # 11 all-time in rushing yards. 

http://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/rush_yds_career.htm

http://espn.go.com/nfl/history/leaders/_/stat/rushlead

Of the guys above him, Emmit Smith (1), Walter Payton (2), Barry Sanders (3), Eric Dickerson (7), Tony Dorsett (-8), Jim Brown (9), and Marshall Faulk (10) are in.  Curtis Martin (4), Jerome Bettis (5) and Ladainian Tomlinson (6) are either waiting their shot or still active.  Guys 12 though 15 are either in (Marcus Allen, Franco Harris, Thurman Thomas) or still active (Fred Taylor).

Among those 15 (let's call those guys the basis for comparison), Edge is 12th in rushing TDs (80), 8th in receptions (433), 7th in receiving yards (3,364), 8th in receiving TDs (11), 11th in years in the league (11, including his 3 games with Seattle), and 13th in games played (148), meaning that out of the top 15 rushers of all time, 10 of whom are already in the Hall, and the rest of whom probably will get in (I'm not sure about Fred Taylor), Edgerrin James is in the middle of the pack, which by definition makes his numbers comparable to those of a Hall of Fame back (or, to use your exact term, they match up quite well).

IF he ever goes in I will fly all of you "believers" out. Until then we are just wasting our time and going in circles.

I will put it in writing I am so confident he ain't getting in! What more can I do!! Someone draw up the papers!

How about taking the Faulk versus James conversation into a thread actually dedicated to it and stop derailing this one? Actually I think I'm too late because I personally don't think it is going anywhere and hasn't gone anywhere for the last page.
