I don't think I said or implied that teams aren't looking for their own Belicek or Brady, so maybe you are responding to someone else with that comment.

So to me the question boils down to how do you solve the QB problem in MN. We obviously, at least until Cassel starting his recent upswing, have been in the basement of QB play. So do we “need” an Elite guy to win? My answer is “No, but it sure wouldn’t hurt.”. IMO, this kind of player is a rare gem and there is no tried and true method to figure out which prospect or FA guy is the next “that guy.” So does this mean you just have to get lucky and tolerate years of crap? IMO, the is fool hardy. GB got lucky and had a horseshoe with Favre and Rogers. That sucks. But it is what it is.
So to me the question becomes, can we win with a Good or “silver” QB. (To quote Kapp) I think recent history suggests that yes we can.

I have some really bad news for you. Unless you are a direct decendent of Methuselah, who's age at death is given in the Bible as 960 or 969, then there is not much hope for staying alive long enoughsoflavike wrote:The question is: "Will the freaking Vikings win a freaking Super Bowl before I'm dead and buried."
When I used that phrase, I meant it as the caliber of play that wins league championships. In other words, Super Bowls.J. Kapp 11 wrote: That's the only question I care about.
I've lived through "sustained championship caliber play" in the 70s. No rings.
Isn't that what I said?Mothman wrote: When I used that phrase, I meant it as the caliber of play that wins league championships. In other words, Super Bowls.
I don't think so, unless "no rings" was supposed to mean something other than "no Super Bowl wins". I just don't know how else to interpret your comments. If I missed something, I apologize. I'm not trying to be difficult.J. Kapp 11 wrote: Isn't that what I said?
