Pick an old vet to come out of retirement to QB the Vikings 

Post#1 » by Alymero » Mon Aug 3, 2009 12:46 pm

Who would most likely fit the Favre mold as a drop-back gunslinger to help the Vikings put the last piece of the super bowl puzzle in place?

A. Drew Bledsoe

B. Jeff George

C. Dan Marino (sure, he hasn't played in a decade, is older than dirt and slower than molassis, but could to this day still be one of the most accurate QBs if given the protection and enough time to pass the ball.)

Take away his games against the Colts and Sage is statistically Jay Cutler, with a smaller sample size. He's always going to throw too many INTs though. Cutler will too for that matter.

I'm more confident than most people in what is already on this roster at QB. But if you are looking for an old vet to drag onto a field, Vinny Testaverde is still in phenomenal physical condition.
It's not whether you win or lose, it's how good you look playing the game

Joe Namath looks like he still has some spunk left in him.

Vick is not a QB.

Sage/TJax/Booty will compete.

Depending on how he fares the next three preseason games he may be available. For now, he has the upper edge over BSP after yesterdays game, Id say
