O.K. While we dwell on NE past and present type posts lately why don't we argue as to who you thought was the most overrated Patritos player and most underrated player?
For those who have trouble understanding,the overrated player would be a guy always in the news with his career always in a positive way and you felt he was not really that good and for the underrated player the guy you felt was never talked about but deserved praise for his unheralded work ethics.
As overrated player? I say Terry Glenn.. Made many mistakes,dropped balls too often and caused problems for the team with his constant injuries and when not injured whined alot but always got media attention for when he did make the big plays
Underrated player? I would say Andre Tippett...He just happened unfortunately to be playing LB in the Lawrence Taylor era,Otherwise he would not only be the best LB to play in the 80s but would probably be in the HOF by now..Not too many people outside of NE really knew was a disruptive dominating force he was at the LB position,We may never see a guy of his caliber again in a NE uniform-he was that good.
Runner-ups would be Underrated Troy Brown and Overrated Tony Eason
