OT: Woodson Vs. Woodley: Who do ya got??
January 24th, 2011 at 12:52 AM ^
I love Woodley but:
- Woodson went 3-0 versus the Buckeyes and Woodley did not do so well.
- Woodson is still the only defensive player to win a Heisman trophy.
- Woodson and crew brought home the NC in 97 and Woodley and his crew couldn't finish the job in 06.
- Woodley already won with the Steelers in 08.
Also, if Woodson helps the Packers win this Super Bowl then his Hall of Fame resume will be that much stronger. Having two former Wolverines get in with Brady and Woodson would be GREAT and bode well for the Michigan lore. "Go Pack Go!"

in his first game against OSU in 1995, as a true freshman, Woodson shut down senior and Biletnikof winner Terry Glenn and got 2 picks, one of them in the final minute when OSU had driven to our 34 yd line. Epic.
In comparison, Woodley's helmet-shot on Troy Smith in 2006 (on an incomplete 3rd and long, no less) cost us the biggest OSU game in school history. Not that Woodley wasn't a great Wolverine, etc., but...
Against OSU Woodson gave us all more endorphin rushes than any Michigan player I can think of (Desmond Howard and John Kolesar would be up there). Tom Harmon still has the best individual performance by a Michigan player against OSU, but I'm not sure what he did against the Bucks apart from the 1940 game.

It was Crable not Woodley with the costly helmet-to-helmet hit.
January 24th, 2011 at 12:53 AM ^
wouldn't it be cool if Charles could somehow repeat the the feat of our last Heisman wiinner to play in the superbowl for the packers and win the MVP award??

Woodson having as many Super Bowls as Manning as well as winning the Heisman and NC over him would be an extra special treat from the game. "Go Pack Go!!!"
January 24th, 2011 at 3:16 AM ^
Manning choked against Nebraska in'97

I love Woodson!! I can't stand the steelers and their quarterback and all the steeler "faithful". Anyways, I say Woodson as a defensive player of the year last year has been stellar on Green Bay, so go Pack go. Go Woodson.

Woodson because Roethlisberger should be in prison.
January 24th, 2011 at 3:11 AM ^
Chuckie Dubs FTW!
Lamarr has won already. Chaz has been a premier player in this league for a long time. He deserves it.
January 24th, 2011 at 4:51 AM ^
As much as I hate the Packers, I'd love to see Woodson win the championship he deserves.

Wood***

No doubt.
January 24th, 2011 at 7:35 AM ^
For giving me one of the greatest memories ever, I will take Mr. Charles Woodson.
January 24th, 2011 at 8:09 AM ^
Woodson and Woodley Unite in the 3rd Quarter to produce a super defensive player - a hybrid DL/DE/LB/CB and destroy both the steelers and packers, bringing the Super Bowl Trophy to Ann Arbor.

Woodley already has a super bowl ring, and this will be a step in the right direction to see Charles Woodson in the pro-football hall of fame.
January 24th, 2011 at 11:41 AM ^
Woodley already has a Super Bowl ring so it'd be nice to see Woodson get one this year.
January 24th, 2011 at 10:03 AM ^
I've been a Steelers fan since I was 8, but Charles Woodson is my favorite Wolverine.
January 24th, 2011 at 10:26 AM ^
But I want Woodley to have a good game.
And honestly, it won't break my heart if the Steelers win. Being a Bears fan, this is not a great Monday morning.
January 24th, 2011 at 10:39 AM ^
Unless CW goes out on offense, they're not going head-to-head.
Rooting for GB, but if the Steelers win, that's fine. I like both teams, especially since they play outside on real grass.
January 24th, 2011 at 10:35 AM ^
Woodson is the reason i like the Raiders and the reason i buy #2 Michigan jerseys.
January 24th, 2011 at 10:49 AM ^
Woodson. My favorite player without a ring.
January 29th, 2011 at 3:00 PM ^
I like Woodley a lot and i have a lot of respect for him, but I think I have to go with Woodson.
January 29th, 2011 at 3:02 PM ^
Its WOODley v. WOODson you mind as well put Tiger WOODs in there. The new topic is, if he can win a tournament before the super bowl, which is saying that he wins this weekend or next.

Packers win! Woodson gets his ring, retires and coaches the DBs at his alma mater. Where he will eventually become the DC when Mattison retires. What defensive recruit wouldn't want to play for the only defensive player to win the Heisman?
