NFL's Best

The Rocky Mount Gryphons tonight travel to Beddingfield to begin the new year. This is a busy week of basketball as Wednesday they host Hertford County and finish off the week with the Knights of Northern Nash at Northern.

The NFL playoffs are in high gear and shortly they will be naming the All PRO Team. Here is some of my thinking for the offense.

Quarterback: Peyton Manning Indianapolis Colts. He didn't throw for the most yards but the Colts are just average without him. Second Best Philip Rivers San Diego Chargers. It is no longer LT's Chargers

Running Back: Adrian Peterson Minnesota Vikings. What needs to be said, this dude is good. Second best Michael Turner Atlanta Falcons. The Falcon turn a round was because Turner kept the heat off Ryan.

Wide Receivers: Andre Johnson Houston Texans. The Texans didn't get to play a home game during the first month of season because of a Hurricane. Their bad start cost Johnson a possible MVP of the league if they could have made playoffs. Second best Steve Smith Carolina Panthers and Wes Welker New England Partiots

Linemen: In a world of instance stats you would think the NFL could come up with some type of stats for linemen. Knock down blocks, sacks allowed, etc. You make your own picks on linemen.

Offensive player of the Year: Drew Brees New Orleans Saints. Is the best pure passer in football. Remember I said passer not best quarterback.

Kick returner:Darren Sproles San Diego Chargers. Probably the most exciting player in the league

Most Surprising Team:Miami Dolphins Look last year they won ONE game

Most Disappointing: New York Jets. In week eleven they were talking a superbowl between the Giants and Jets. Now Brett Farve's teammates have thrown him under the bus. Jets didn't even make playoffs or finish first or second in their division. Runner Up Denver Bronco's.

Best Move of year: Hiring Mike Singletary as coach of the 49's. Look out next year after they have a full off season with Singletary in charge. Second best Charger hiring Ron Rivera as Defensive Coordinator mid season. That move may win super bowl

Tomorrow we will look at the defense.
