It seems like he's a pretty charasmatic guy who is good at talking the talk, but doesn't really know that much about football. He knows just enough to talk about it without sounding stupid. Any fan with decent writing skills could be as good a football analyst as King if it was their job. The only real "skill" he brings to the table is his rolodex. Which has its purposes. But it doesn't mean we need to take his football musings seriously.Dwayne Ruddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09270841286103039901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31147435.post-15634820095255623892007-07-30T12:29:00.000-04:002007-07-30T12:29:00.000-04:00He sincerely appeared to like the food, and given ...He sincerely appeared to like the food, and given that his girth approximates my own, I find that part of his article to be credible.<BR/><BR/>Otherwise, I think Peter King is a guy who sometimes writes stuff just for the sake of filling column space. Take what he's now saying about Jamaal Lewis, for example. King watches one Browns practice, spends 15 minutes with Jamal Lewis and then announces that the guy is a shoe-in to rush for 1,300 yards and is likely to get a lot more than that. <BR/><BR/>That kind of output would have put Lewis among the top 5 rushers in the AFC last season, and among the top ten in league. Only one team with a rusher ranking among the league's top 10 had a losing record in 2006, and that team went 7-9 (the 49ers). <BR/><BR/>So if he really believes that the Browns will run the ball that effectively, it's almost inconceivable that King could rank the Browns 32nd out of 32 NFL teams. <BR/><BR/>It just doesn't add up, but that doesn't bother Peter. He made his deadline, and can now get back to the more pressing business of having another helping of the sliced balsamic skirt steak.Hornless Rhinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04358963520899550238noreply@blogger.com
