Matt Forte named one of the NFL's most underrated players

"Forte's quiet personality and smooth style tend to deflect attention rather than attract it, but the fact remains he has been one of the NFL's most productive running backs over the past three seasons."

Forte will be all-pro this season

if he can go relatively injury free and with the O-line upgrade (the line has to improve, doesnt it?) I expect big things. I predict this will be Forte’s breakout season, assuming we have a season……..damn this lockout.

White Sox fans need not apply.

Im a jags fan looking to draft Forte in Fantasy as my RB2..i think he has high potential this season, you guys agree ?

yes

He’ll keep improving in this offense.

If you go in the bathroom, turn off the lights, and say "Da Coach" 5 times while facing the mirror... Ditka will appear and slap the wussy right out of you.

Forte will be a top 5 RB in Fantasy this year, mark my words.

Prediction? 1400 yards rushing and 9 Rushing TDs with 600 yards receiving and 5 Receiving TDs. Why? Two reasons: The offensive line will be better and the passing game will be better. Camiri and the line will open more lanes for Forte, allowing him to actually get across the line before first contact, and the passing game will take pressure off of Matt and the running game as well as force defenders to focus more on Hester, Knox, Bennett, Olsen and Kellen Davis in the passing game creating more opportunities for Forte.
