Hall of Shame - Week 9

Everybody Knows Your Name

I don't care who you are; Player, Coach, Broadcaster, Writer, you name it.  You sucked, and we're going to tell you why.

Another staff favorite, our Hall of Shame picks highlight our individual selections for the worst sports-related performers of the week. 

Smokin' Joe - Philip Rivers

Rivers is not a starting quarterback in most leagues but I am nominating him this week on behalf of all Antonio Gates owners. The Vikings have a great run defense so most people figured Tomlinson was in for a long day. The problem was that Rivers could not complete 50% of his passes so the Vikings were able to stop Tomlinson and not have Gates beat them.

The Chargers lost big and Gates only finished with 1 catch for 10 yards. Rivers was so bad he could not even rack up garbage time points against a prevent defense.

 

 

CrunchTime - Alex Smith

While there probably weren’t many expecting him to blow the doors off this weekend, his incompetence is simply impressive. Some of the interceptions he’s thrown make me wonder if he knows what jersey his team actually wears.

He’s definitely a fantasy void, unless your defense is facing him, but more importantly he’s managed to devalue all of the players around him. He defines the Hall of Shame in my mind. I hope he feels guilty about his #1 overall contract.

 

 

The Sandman - Vincent Jackson

During draft day everyone had Jackson as a sleeper since he was the Chargers number one receiver and Phillip Rivers had a solid second half of the season in 2006.  Also, the Chargers hired Norv Turner, an offensive guru so all signs pointed towards Jackson having a solid season.

During the first six weeks he had mixed results, a touchdown in week three and five and not much else. Over the past month, he has been terrible. Over that time period he has two receptions. This includes a bye week but it also includes a zero reception game in week eight. It’s obvious that the Chargers have no faith in him since they traded for Chris Chambers. I owned Jackson and cut him last week…good riddance.
