NFL Power Rankings: Week No. 9
Talking is elemental. Talking is fundamental. But on the gridiron, actions speak louder than words. Speeches are valuable when you have proved your worth and trash-talk is useless. Simple as that.
Throughout the years, names like Namath, Irvin and Burress have stood the test of time because of the substance that each one paired with a particular stance; while surnames like Mitchell (Freddie), Stevens (Jerramy) and Vanderjagt (Mike) have faded into oblivion because they couldn’t keep up with the competition.
As they prepared to play in Week No. 9 of the 2009 NFL season, DeAngelo Hall, Joey Porter and Cullen Jenkins took turns opening their mouths. Hall claimed he was mistreated by Atlanta, Porter ripped the Patriots, and Jenkins lambasted his defensive coordinator. None succeeded because they were unable to sustain the bravado.
Meanwhile, the Colts lost three players to injury during the week and (led by Peyton Manning) quietly kept ruling the NFL landscape. The lesson remains that if you want to talk, you better back it up. In others words, put up or shut up.
And complying with that blue-collar mentality, we concentrate in bringing you the game that praises the true performers in the sport of professional football.
