Drew Brees won by a large margin, I think he scored 130 points and Manning was in 2nd with 70. I watched the fastest man challenge and I was dissappointed they didn't post the 40 times. I'm interested to see what these genetic freaks are running nowadays. Every now and then I get to watch an NFL combine video and its quite interesting. :happy:

yea, he is probably overrated, but if the falcons did not have him they would probably suck. He was supposed to be the 'Michael Jordan' of football, I don't see that happening.

Don't have to wait too long until the draft. Although this year doesn't seem like it will be exciting... I enjoyed the booing of Eli last year :)

didn't vick participate in the accuracy challenge?  i knew he would suck it up.  drew is the man, and always has and always will be better than vick.  vick = overrated and worthless.

Sorry Bro. I generally agree with you but this is not the case. Among all the players I think Vick is the less worthless. And no, I dont think he is the best (I dont even like him) but we need to accept the fact that he is the most valuable player for any team in the NFL. The Falcons are really a very different team without it.

Yes, he is not the most skilled QB. I think that he is a "Kordell Stewart" on steroids. He can do everything with an above average perfomance and that makes him very dangerous. Falcons fans say that he can run like a devil, and thats a good point. But he doenst know how to run properly. He explodes in a way that he cant control his acceleration. Remember that run against the Eagles in the Conference championship? (Or it was against the Rams?) He tackled himself literally. One day someone is going to hurt him bad.

But still, he is surely not worthless.

yeah, i just saw a re-run today. wow, brees was amazing.

@[sanctified]

"He can do everything with an above average perfomance" is not completely true. he never has, and never will be able to throw the ball accurately and effectively. he has flawed mechanics. he has a career passer rating of like 76, which is the same that jeff garcia had last year with the browns, and now garcia is cut.

and vick would never be mvp on the patriots.

I was thinking the same thing. Even for the bench press comp., the d-line and LB were only doing 30+ reps. I was suprised at first that o-line weren't in the competition, but still those numbers are pretty low. You can see those kinds of numbers for college athletes and even some high school athletes. Given, it might not have been the best coniditions and such, but I was still suprised.

    • This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
