Those two have been eating a lot of lemons. Both sour as heck.

Good thing is their lips will already be puckered to kiss Cams ars after this season.

Do you think he's a great passer?

Outside of one single season isn't he like 18 tds and 13ints a year on average without looking it up?

I want to win. I am being objective about Cam.

If he can pull a Trent Dilfer (which you guys say is impossible in the "Modern NFL) I'll give him tons of credit.

But he's always been average to below average as a passer.

Passing the ball is the mark of a QB.

You need a passer to win a championship. 

well, again, running between the tackles was the mark of a RB.  Stopping the run was the mark of a LB.  TEs were largely blockers.  But players evolve.  The game evolves. 

Cam might of been an average passer.   But he was also a uniquely dominant runner.  One that is unique in NFL history.   A dominant game changer and again, remains the most dominent short yardage threat/option in NFL history.   

He was never an average player.

Noon. Not in NFL history.

I'm not putting him ahead of.

 Larry  Csonka

Earl Campbell 

Emmitt Smith

Jerome Bettis

Walter Payton.

I could probably pick 15 more guys ahead of him

You need a passer to win a championship. 

getting your team in position to score TDs and ensuring they do one way or another. You need a guy that can make sure that happens. That's Cam.

You need to score points to win a championship. Cam scores points.

You simply choose to ignore and deem irrelvent everything about Cam that made him elite and special...to diminsh him. 

Throw all his passing TDs out the window for a minute and deem them void.  One player has found the endzone more than Cam in Carolina history without his passing TDs.  1.  And Cam likely jumps him this year.   Cam is a monster.   To dismiss all that he brings for your arguement, that you have to play like Tom Brady or it doesn't count,  is utterly silly.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Right. But you do understand that there is no such thing as not signing free agents, right? That's what I mean. So make some good free agency moves and do well in the draft. That's step one. If you can't accomplish that, then this will just keep getting worse.

      Sweet jebus this is idiotic Yes, overall team success in this league, you need a good QB, but beyond just that painfully obvious fact, let's get into the rest of the stupid in there......... First things first, you say.. "if we need a good QB for him to have success, then why are you drafting that player with the #1 pick" Show me one time I've ever said we would need a good QB for T-Mac himself to have success... you can't, because I never have.  I think you're referring to the "he's bad enough that we then have a Top 5 pick to target a QB" part of my post, which is very clearly talking about said QB, not T-Mac.  The other way to interpret that is just overall team success, which again, wouldn't be anything about T-Mac or his ability to impact the offense or overall team wins and losses. I'm quite sure I could do this with a number of teams over the years, but I don't want to spend the time to do multiple, so I'll keep it to just the 2023 Vikings right now since you wanted to use Jefferson as your example....... The Vikings went 3-6 after Cousins went down last year.  And two of those wins came before Jefferson even came back from his own injury, they were 1-4 in the final 5 weeks after Jefferson came back. In those 5 games, Jefferson had 31 catches, 503 yards, and 2 TDs Having the WR you specifically called out didn't help them go better than 1-4 with a bad QB, even though he still put up a great stat line for that time period either.  It also didn't make that QB good enough to where they then went out and brought in TWO new QB's this year to replace Doubs and Mullens who started down the stretch for them last year. And that's with 4th year Jefferson, not a rookie that T-Mac would be If you expect a WR getting drafted #1 overall to be the player to turn a franchise as bad as we are around in 1 season, make whatever QB we're able to put in there be successful, and lead us to a solid season, then you are literally insane. We are AWFUL, we have a few young guys who could turn into great players, but we are so far from being a good team, that there isn't any player we could draft next year that is going to change that in 2025.
