Football Seasoning

So I’m flying through a number of football web sites, trying to contain the excitement that comes with knowing that in just over an hour, I’ll be sitting in front of a television watching an endless string of commercial breaks with a little live football thrown in between them.
And Football Outsiders has their 2007 predictions up on their site.
So I’m scrolling and reading.
“…Player Who Will Most Exceed His KUBIAK Projection…
“Andre Johnson…
“Kevin Curtis…”
Excellent choices, both.
…Scrolling and reading…
“…Player Who Will Most Underperform His KUBIAK Projection…
“LaDainian Tomlinson. I think his heavy (if not quite 370-) workload catches up to him with a nagging injury or two, and Lorenzo Neal’s effectiveness as a run blocker decreases because of age.”
Interesting, and ballsy. I like it. This is a good site…
And then this. Buried at the bottom.
