The bottom line is you don’t HAVE to have a HOF caliber QB to win the Super Bowl, but it sure as hell enhances your chances. The evidence proves it without a shadow of a doubt.
Yep. They almost never win Super Bowls, with very few exceptions.Ever hear the term....bus driver.
^ Truth. No one should argue against this.Teams win games. Unfortunately most sports commentators and “analysts” lack the ability to talk about a team and instead focus on individual contributions, never looking at the bigger picture of what it took to orchestrate those individual contributions.

The TEAM around the QB no doubt.
Jim Plunkett, Jim McMahon, Doug Williams, Jeff Hostetler, Mark Rypien, Trent Dilfer, Brad Johnson, Eli Manning, Joe Flacco are all examples of average QB's winning SB's on great teams.
C'mon Catch.......your # 1 doesn't hold water. Aikman, Brees, Brady, Manning (both) all won Super Bowls with major contracts.
Yes, within reason. Dak has shown he can be very good. He’s a little inconsistent, but he’s also still young. I think we can win a Super Bowl with him. He’s as good as, if not better than, Wentz. Dak is much more than a bus driver. Elite? No. Can he be? Maybe. Very good? Yes.so what you're saying is pay Dak, right?

Imagine comparing stats from 15years ago to nowI agree. He's getting better too. I was just looking at his first 4 compared to Brady:
Yep. Equal to or considerably better than Brady in pretty much every single category.I agree. He's getting better too. I was just looking at his first 4 compared to Brady:
Both. I do agree all QB depend on others around them no one QB has ever done it alone. Flip side all QB take the heat more so than any player on the team for failure. I would also nothing gets you beat faster than poor QB play
True, but I think Tom Brady has been way more important to the Pats for the past 175 years than the team around him.
I guess we'll find out.I know the OP said leave coaching out of it. But in this case you can't. Brady has been to 9 Super Bowls, that borders on the supernatural. I think if you put any elite QB past or present under that coach and system you'd get similar results.
Trent Dilfer won a Super Bowl. Dan Marino did not.
Next question.
Team without a doubt. And if anybody doesn’t understand that. They’re not worth the effort1. When it comes to winning it all what is more important? The QB or the team around the QB? The other parts of the team.
Lets either keep coaching out of it or assume we have a quality coach.
