for finding the one picture of Dallas Clark on the ground.

:D

Forget the stats just watch Dallas Clark play he is sooooooo much better…

and he is the best receiving TE in football…but he is not the best blocker. There is more to TE than just catching the ball…but all aside…PRO BOWL!!!!!

You’ve got the third best TE in the AFC.

Must be exciting to be a Texan fan. Maybe next year he’ll be second best, won’t that be something?

Colts fans were going to ban me for voicing this argument on their blog, so I decided to make my first fanpost on BRB.

Or maybe not…

Need targets per game, targets as a proportion of total offense and sacks/hurries/TFL numbers given up by whiffed blocks.

Without it, I’m going homer and picking Clark.

1. As already stated by everyone above with a brain, you are NOT going to get unbiased results by polling teams whose tight end is in the polling.
(Ex.: “So-And-So is obviously the best TE in football because he plays for my team and since I am a winner and I only back winners, then by the Transitive Property So-And-So is a winner and is therefore the winner of this poll.”)

2. You are not going to get unbiased opinions from teams who are in the same division as any of the candidates in this poll.
(Ex. 1: "I hate So-And-So’s guts because he plays for our division rivals and always makes our defense look like a pack of drunken hillbillies stumbling around in the dark looking for their lost coon-hound ‘Cletus’, therefore, I would sooner set my ass-hair on fire than vote for him.
Ex. 2: “So-And-So, our division rivals TE, regularly beats on us like orphans at a Catholic monastery, and since I know we’re awesome then the only logical explanation is that he is the best fucking TE to ever walk in cleats. He gets my face-saving vote.”)

3. You are not going to get an unbiased opinion from inter-division rivals either, such as between the Colts and the Pats or the Steelers and the Pats, for much the same reasons as stated in point #2.
(Ex.: Pats Fan: “Gawd, I hate those douchebag Colts and Stealers! They’s always a takin’ what is rightfully owas’ as the best fans in the facking universe! I would rather stick my cawk in a gawdamn wood-chippa’ than vote for they’ra guy!”)

4. You’re not going to get an informed opinion from any NFC fans do to lack of familiarity with the candidates.
(Ex.: NFC Fan #1: “Hey, who do you think the best TE in the AFC is, buddy?”
         NFC Fan #2: “What the hell is the AFC?”)

Conclusion: Poll the remaining AFC East teams (Bills, Jets, Dolphins). They have little-to-no dog in this fight and would be the closest thing you’re going to get to an unbiased and informed opinion. Hell, we’ll even give you the Pats. Go ahead and ask ‘em.
To make it truly fair, though, you need to change that Coltsbanishment crap in the body.
Unless, that is, you’re afraid of a fair fight?

clark may be one of the “smartest” TE’s in the league. you have to be, in order to be in this offense, with it’s telephone book of plays.
having said that, i will still take OD if we were choosing sides. he’s fast, great hands, and has a nose for the endzone, and first downs. can’t comment on the others, as i haven’t seen them play.
