But y&#039;all just keep on crying, because how dare ANYONE vote against your precious CJ and his record-breaking stats.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wow. There&#039;s a lot of anger toward Ryan for this. I don&#039;t agree with his vote, but of the two guys he voted for at WR, Marshall was the other first team AP guy and Green was a second team AP guy. It&#039;s not like he voted for Danny Amendola and Ben Obomanu. 

The idea that it was a biased vote from a former Bear for a Bear over a Lion kind of goes away when the Bear he voted for was the other first team guy. 

Like I said, if I had a vote, I&#039;d have voted for Megatron, but like it or not, Ryan gave legit reasons for supporting the guys he did.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I can see where Ryan is coming from. Marshall and Green had more meaningful yards than Megatron did. CJ, though not necessarily his fault, put up a lot of meaningless yards and did a lot of stat padding when his team had no chance of winning. So I don&#039;t see this as a big deal. I mean it&#039;s not like Ryan voted for Jerome Simpson over Megatron.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Everybody throws out &quot;garbage time&quot; and nobody defines it.  Is it garbage time if the team comes back to win the game?  Is it garbage time if your team is up by 24 points?  Its meaning varies by individual so using that as the basis for an argument is absurd.  The only argument really is that he had only 5 TDs.  How many are necessary?  It doesn&#039;t matter if the vote is unanimous.  There is always somebody willing to be &quot;that guy&quot;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A lot of Calvin Johnson&#039;s stats feel empty. Detroit was a horrible team who was always losing and always throwing the ball to catch up, which inflated Calvin&#039;s stats. It&#039;s not a coincidence that Stafford set the record for pass attempts in a single season. 

 Personally, I still would&#039;ve voted Johnson All-Pro. But just because someone disagrees doesn&#039;t mean that deserves an 800 word moralizing screech basically calling that person an idiot. But then again, I&#039;m not as desperate for attention as Michael David Smith]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Citing wins when and TDs when arguing Marshall over C. johnson is pretty stupid considering both of them missed the playoffs.  So, both teams failed equally.  The Bears&#039; situation is actually worse considering they only had 1 loss in the first 7 or 8 games of the season.  Marshall certainly didn&#039;t lead them to many wins in the second half of the season.  Where were his all-pro performances down the stretch, when they were needed most?  

Now, let&#039;s think about the silliness as to why either Marshall or Green would be voted for instead of Andre Johnson.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Warning: I have done no real analysis to support my comments and I am a huge Jerry Rice fan.  

With that said, there&#039;s a huge difference in piling up yardage in meaningful games and piling up yardage when your team is down in garbage time.  If they did a wide receiver ranking similar to the QBR which weighted contributions based on situation and &quot;clutchness&quot; I don&#039;t think Calvin would be in the top group.  

That said, it&#039;s not really Calvin&#039;s fault that his team sucks and if there was a draft of all the WR&#039;s in the league, he would be picked first every time.

Huge Homer Alert!  If you want to see a guy making awesome catches and run after catches in the clutch this year, see Michael Crabtree...FINALLY!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was pretty flabbergasted when I heard this the first time, but I do have to admit that there are lots of compelling arguments to support his choice based upon convenient statistical nitpicking and indirectly tying that to the wins.  I still think the vote should have gone to him of course, but really the big problem here is that when you have a guy like CJ, you just need to go out and get the wins you should get and not create opportunities for this type of a shafting.  

The Lions deserve to get snubbed because no team in the NFL failed harder and with greater disappointment than the Lions did based upon what they had and what they should have done.  It serves us right, even if it&#039;s unfair to CJ, but that&#039;s the price you pay when your team lets you down as hard as the Lion&#039;s staff did this year.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ryan said. “Johnson was targeted a lot and was often the only thing the Lions had going,&quot;..........

If Megatron is basically the only weapon Detroit has, then he is constantly bracketed, double teamed and focused upon. Wouldn&#039;t that make his accomplishments even more impressive?

Tim Ryan&#039;s logic is flawed at best. These guys that were on the fringes of being in the NFL, then become an &quot;analyst&quot;, start to think that they are so much smarter than everyone else.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Again, after last season, teams game planned to limit CJ and keep him between the 20&#039;s.  They schemed against CJ getting behind them and keeping him out of the end zone.  It&#039;s means they give up or take their chances on the inside and intermediate stuff.  It worked.  He could not get behind them consistently for scoring big plays.  Which is why the guy averaged 100 plus yards a game but could  not find the end zone effectively or enough to win.  Logically, only 5 TDs off that many yards is ridiculous.  The other guys scored effectively despite the same coverage.  Historic year, in statistical terms, but something is wrong with this picture when it doesn&#039;t translate into scores or wins.  Ryan is perfectly within reason.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[People saying his lack of tds doesn&#039;t hurt. It foes when 39 others had more tds. And mds go on and delete my post again. At least Ryan will back up his argument unlike you. You jut delete any comment that questions you. Be a man and tell me why a player ranked 40t for tds is the best. Again yard don&#039;t mean anything. Brees, romo and Stafford all had 5k yards. How many playoff APPEARANCES did they have this year? 0. Yards are not the be all end all in the NFL and if you can&#039;t understand that then your a dang fool]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It is actually very simple.

Forget the record and every other stat

CJ was the best WR in the game last year, often he was the best player on the field.

If you asked the 32 HC&#039;s and OC&#039;s in the League to choose 1 WR for their team, everyone would say CJ.

All-Pro, one of the easiest calls ever, except for one imbecile.

People please stop making excuses,  Tim Ryan made a mock of his ballot.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#039;s a travesty that Tim Ryan didn&#039;t vote for CJ. Wins and losses shouldn&#039;t matter a bit. Who cares if CJ didn&#039;t score that many touchdowns - it&#039;s yards that really matter, and CJ led the league by a mile! Who cares if his team was bad? That wasn&#039;t CJ&#039;s fault. What other things is a wide receiver supposed to do besides gain yards? 

Now, re-read the paragraph above, substitute Luke Kuechly for CJ, sacks for touchdowns, tackles for yards, and linebacker for wide receiver. Then you could basically make the same argument for Carolina LB Luke Kuechly that everyone is making for CJ. CJ had ONE writer not vote for him, and Kuechly didn&#039;t even make the All-Pro team. I don&#039;t see why everyone&#039;s jumping all over Tim Ryan for this.

My point is, there are a lot of things to vote on... people seem to recognize that for other positions, so why not wide receiver?]]></description>

I am amazed that he has a vote. What are his qualifications?]]></description>
