As we already know I am right 99.9% of the time (just kidding), but the one thing that all the writers of BlackSportsOnline do is admit when they were wrong and seeing that the NFL season is coming down the stretch I think it is safe to talk about a few things I have been wrong about.
1- Matt Ryan
I was definitely way off with this one. I thought there was no way shape, form or fashion that Ryan of the 19 INTs in his senior season at Boston College would be a good quarterback in the NFL. Lets be honest I thought he was going to be garbage and I thought the Falcons had a solid chance of winning 2 or 3 games.
Having the NFL Sunday Ticket Package on the NFL (a must have for any true NFL Fan) I have watched every single one of Ryan's games and he is the real deal. I would venture to say he is better than 75% of the QBs in the NFL. He has shown skills that 4 or 5 year veterans have not shown. I was wrong about this kid.
2- Bill Parcells and The Miami Dolphins
The Dolphins went 1-15 last year, so I figured there would be some improvement, but nothing like this. I thought Bill Parcells was still living in 1988 not 2008 and his way of thinking would just plunge the Dolphins in a bigger hole.
But then the Dolphins got a real QB in Chad Pennington and then got creative. Out of all the teams I would have expected to come out with the "Wildcat" the Dolphins would have been way down on the list. But it is working and they are fighting for a Wildcard spot.
3- Kurt Warner
First off I would like to thank Kurt for carrying my fantasy football team this year, but with that being said I thought he was washed up. I knew he was better than Matt Leinart but I would have never imagined that he would be this good. MVP good. Greatest show in the desert good. It helps he has some of the best skills players in the league, but you can't discount how he is the leader that makes this ship runs.
Stop lying you are always wrong
