Skins fan…so we have a natural rivalry with the guys up I-95 in Baltimore. So it pains me to say this…
How did Ben Grubbs miss the cut???
Also…I bet if the Titans didn’t start out so horribly, Michael Roos would be on this list too.
Jon Stinchcomb should get an honorable mention as well. He’s putting a nice career together.
Anyway…if I had to vote, I’d have to go with JAHRI EVANS

Have any of these guys sucked down enough steroids to be considered for an award named after Mike Webster?

It’s gotta be Joe Thomas. He gets the least support from team and opened some holes for the record setting performances by Jerome Harrison, even when the other team KNEW browns were going to run it.

Jason Peter’s Sucks. That’s 10 votes against Jason Peters and not a single vote for him.

Brian Waters played like shit this year. In fact his play started sliding last year. He made the 2009 pro-bowl on name recognition alone. Great guy, but hardly an award worthy guard in terms of his play on the field. To his defense he was playing on a broken wheel all year however.

As a Vikings fan, what happened to any Jets lineman? They led the league in rushing. Hutchinson didn’t have a good year

Let’s see… the award is named after a center, yet no centers were nominated?
Agree with previous posters- Otto is known as the best center of all time. Change the name to him, unless it’s your way of memorializing a homeless, demented steroid user.

Jason Peters? LOL. He stinks. The Bills got a steal in getting a first round pick for him.

As an Eagles fan, I implore you NOT to get it to Jason Peters. He sucks.

How about the Jim Otto award?

As an Eagles fan I would vote against Peters. While 5 didn’t get sacked a lot, especially from Peters’ side, the guy always seemed to make mental errors (false starts) in chunks and at the worst possible times.
He’s good. He’s not the best.
I’m leaning Joe Thomas.

Joe Thomas is the best in the game period. He shouldn’t be penalized for being on a bad team. He shut down Jared Allen, James Harrison, and everyone else who lined up against him this season wether it be a DE or OLB.
Pay the man, Shirley.

Joe Thomas simply shut down dominant pass rushers all season, and when the Browns ran behind him in the second half – little known Jerome Harrison put up HUGE numbers.
Watch Jared Allen in the Vikings v. Browns game. What? Didn’t see him? That’s because he was a non-factor.
Thomas is now the best o-lineman in the league.

I’ll give my vote to Joe Thomas. So, he plays on a bad team and the quartebacking play is suspect with very little in the way of a running game. It’s not all Joe Thomas’ fault. Thomas is quickly becoming the pre-eminent left tackle in the league.

Why would you name an award after a player who juiced up on steriods? What kind of bizzaro world are you people living in? Mike Webster is the example of a football player who cheated his way through life. Not an example of someone to be looked up to.

“Haha Saints best offense in football thats a good one!”
Weird. All they do is score more points than everyone else and gain more yards than everyone else.

Jahri Evans
-All-Pro
-Pro Bowler
-Protected one of the least-sacked QBs in the NFL
-Helped open holes for the 6th-best rushing offense in the NFL
-Allowed only 2 sacks in 2009 and only 5.5 in his 4 years as a pro (starting all 64 games)

Joe Thomas best tackle in the NFL

By: ladybucs&steelersnut

First off, my vote…Steve Hutchinson is one of the guys who contributed the most to keeping Favre in an upright position for most of the season. (of course that got all shot to hell in the playoff game against the SB Champ Saints!) IMO, he deserves your award. I’m no fan of Favre & even less of a Vikes fan, but as a true fan of football Hutchinson is truly deserving.
Secondly, what’s up with the response time of getting replies posted lately? Is anyone else out there having to wait 1 1/2 hours or more? Is it B/C it’s now an NBC site & the Olympics have nonfootball fans jamming NBC sites? Just wondering.

Right! No need to let a silly thing like stats decide who the best offense is… 3 out of the past 4 years.
Moron.
Jahri Evans hands down, which means it will probably go to Brian Waters.

As an eagles fan, i dont think Jason Peters should be included. He was mostly dependable but that’s it.
