All that said, elite QB’s of the past make the players around them rise to the occasion. Some examples are Bradshaw, Marino, Montana, Manning, Elway, Favre and Rodgers. Those of us that are old enough watched those QB’s throw to 7,8,9+ more players per game, and they were successful at it too.If the QB is the Queen of the Chessboard.  Then #12 is a Queen with Rook + Horse powers as a plus. #12 can get out of nearly any predicament.  He’s had relatively below average resources overall Jennings, Jordy, Cobb, Adams were all bi-products of a Offense with superior OL coaching and a Receiver friendly system with a Master Technician at the helm. #12 and his expectations and stubbornness (as much as we may tease him)  makes it all function like a well oiled machine.I’m not saying trading for a player shouldn’t be a consideration. It should always be one. Yet I wouldn’t be in a hurry and we might just be surprised at what he can do spreading the ball around and using lots of play action. Rodgers will pick his poison and he’ll naturally flow to the hot hand at Receiver.I still think Christian Watson is going to impress.  My guess is the faster they get him involved the more dynamic he will be by playoffs.</blockquote>
