2011 All-Underachieving Team

[vmax]

here's a couple...from Don Banks...

 

Receiver -- Chad Ochocinco, New England: I'll grant you that no one really expected a 75-catch, 1,200-yard season coming from the ex-Bengal in New England, but this? Ochocinco has nine catches for 136 yards (15.1) without a touchdown in his six games as a Patriot, and that ranks him tied for 170th overall among the league's reception leaders. That would be 1-7-0. No wonder we haven't heard a peep out of him. And they say he hasn't even fully learned the New England offense yet, which just boggles the mind.

Inside linebacker -- Bart Scott, New York Jets: Scott has 36 tackles, 2.5 sacks and a fumble forced, but he doesn't seem like the same playmaker he was a few years ago. More and more he's coming off the field on third downs for the Jets, so that tells you a little something about how they regard his play. As one club personnel man said of Scott: "He's more of a personality and less of a player these days in New York. He's not the player he was three or four years ago.''

Dishonorable mention: Karlos Dansby, Miami

That does make a lot of sense. As there are many more on that list!
