    Thank you so much for putting MJD in the top five players of 2011. His actions go so unnoticed because of how bad the Jaguars are but I think he is the best running back in the league. Not many running backs in history could get the NFL rushing title coming off of a major knee surgery with the league's worst passing attack (meaning 8 men in the box a lot of the time). I have no idea why MJD wasn't even in the discussion for MVP. I think he should've been runner up to Aaron Rodgers. That's just me, but thank you for recognizing his incredible talent.

    Gordon, on the Patriots most devastating missed FG, you missed on the Patriots. Adam Vinateiri had the most devastating miss (despite making the 4 biggest FGs in franchise history, Rams, Raiders twice, Panthers). In Pete Carroll's final season as Pats coach just preceding Belichick in 1999, Adam hit the upright on a chip shot 32-yd FG attempt against the KC Chiefs resulting in a 16-14 loss in week 6. It may have started the Pats dynasty as the Pats finished as an 8-8 team (rather than 9-7). Carroll gets fired and the rest is history. Adam rarely missed from inside 40 in his life, so that miss not only was devastating but it did ultimately cost the team a playoff spot, and a coach his job for missing playoffs.

    On your recent article on each team's most informative Twitter accounts, you have @TomKowalski36 listed. Unfortunately, Tom Kowalski passed away on August 29th.

    Just letting you know you should probably correct that.
