You miss people that post stupid homer bullshit?
Because we had enough of that last offseason.

Exhibit E: Eli Manning: 2010, good-not-great QB; 2011 franchise QB, 2013 Meh QB... It takes a lot more than a good QB to win a Superbowl, IMHO Quote:
I think there is a difference between homer bullshit and legitimate analysis. Just as I think there is a difference between good stats, and garbage time stats. Or good mults, and bad mults. Heh.

The list of qbs that won the super bowl multiple times pretty much says it all.

Why does this undeniable fact need to beaten into true fan heads every offseason?

See above. With your idea of "fact"....you should write for a political journal, or some erotic literature website.

I love the "Teams win championships" strawman.

Gaz? To care about Gaz' opinion at this point is to live as much in the past as Gaz' football opinions do.

How many "Franchise QBs" have taken a different team to the SB?
How many of them have taken the same team, but with a markedly different line-up to the SB....in the last 25-30 years?

The 80s 49ers probably only win 2 SBs, if that, without Joe Montana.
They don't win the 1981 Super Bowl or the 1988 Super Bowl without Joe.

Elways 80s and 90s Broncos were completely different teams. You're just being obtuse. Oh, and then there's Kurt Warner taking the Rams and the ****ing Cardinals to the SB. So please GTFO.

Brett Favre took the Packers to two SBs and at the age of damn near 40 had the Vikings one drive away.
There is no substitution for a great QB, ever. GTFO true fans. Just ****ing die and go root for the Browns.

Oh wait, Tom Brady's first SB team was vastly different from his last two.
GTFO true fans. **** off and move to Swahili and leave us alone.

HJ...I'll admit, I'm playing devil's advocate a little bit on this one, because I really do think a true franchise QB can make a huge difference ... obviously. I'm just wondering how so many are absolutely convinced we need to draft Geno. Personally, I'd love to see it. Number one, at the very least it introduces competition into the QB position along with some valuable insurance. Number two, I honestly think Geno can become a good NFL QB in time. And, perhaps most importantly, number three....it would be another step in this organization restoring some credibility and trust with their fans by finally listening to them at a time when that's a pretty important step--especially given the last 5-25 years.
On the other hand, I do think the whole past history with retread backups instead of developing our own guy, along with the massive clusterfukk of the Croyle-Thigpen-Cassel-Quinn saga of the recent past, may have put some of us (me at times) into a myopic haze. In that haze, are we mistaking Geno/Tyler Wilson/Barkley/Nassib for the second coming of McNabb/Brees/Dalton/Kaepernick/Brady...when it's just as likely to be the second coming of Russell/Mirer/Claussen/TaVarias Jackson/Ted White? I honestly don't know. However, in this particular draft....I'm leaning toward the latter over the former. I swear, I hope I'm wrong--especially if we do pick Geno. And if we don't, but he ends up being worthy of that first round pick...I guess I'll continue to cry myself to sleep every December for the next 5 years, again. PS: It's good to see you around again, btw.
