    What is he smoking? Starks, okay. Polite didn't get snubbed? Jake Long only marginal?

    Polite got stiffed. The only fullback that enters into the conversation against him is really Ovie Mughelli, and he's in the NFC.

    Le'Ron McClain is Mike Alstott 2.0.

    I don't care what Cote says about Polite. Lou got snubbed that's all there is to say about it.

    He's just doing what he does. Start debate.

    Indeed, Polite lost to McClain's 2008 season.

    None other than Bill Polian disagrees with Cote here.

    I can understand why people think that Starks wasn't worthy; it's hard to get recognized as a 3-4 DE anyways. But Polite? C'mon..

    Cote apparently doesn't actually watch the Dolphins or else he does not understand the first thing about football. If I ever gave his word any credence before, it's over with now.
    Polite is far and away the best FB in the NFL in 2009. Starks has been having a great season. It would be hard to believe any 3-4 DE outplayed him.

    Accoring to this website, profootballfocus.com, no one in the AFC has outplayed him. But in the NFC, Justin Smith has been out playing him. I don't know how much merit that website has, though.

    Would someone explain to me, please, what a Pro Bowl fullback has to do besides block effectively, get the first down every time he's asked to do it, and catch passes. Really; what are we missing here with Polite?

    Wow, Cote calling one of the readers dumb, sounds like we can add classy along with clueless when describing him.

    I actually think Long was better last year, he struggled at time this year.

    Lou may have gotten snubbed, but we all know you usually have a good year than get in the next year.

    Starks had a great year for us, but you can't really argue with the players going.
