[QUOTE="Packerlifer, post: 247469, member: 1242"] Not since ****** & Mussolini teamed up to conquer the world in WW II has so much been so assumed about the Super Bowl success of Batt Faver joining up with the Minnysota Vikqueens. Suddenly Minnysota is "the team to beat." They got their "missing piece." Just like they did with Warren Moon in 1994, Herschel Walker in 1989, Fran Tarkenton in 1972 and probably a half dozen other times when the bandwagon rolled. The fact is this is a union of two of the biggest all time chokers in NFL history. The Queens, a franchise that hasn't been to a Super Bowl in 33 years and has never won in four trips before that has added an aged, damaged quarterback who's spent the last 11 years of his career in a futile attempt to get back to the Super Bowl and repeatedly blowing every and numerous chances to get it done. Watching Faver at his intro press conference yesterday he had that "deer in the headlights" look in his eyes and the demeanor of a man who really didn't believe or know what he was doing there. He's a guy just a couple of months from age 40, who's had recent surgery on an injured tendon in his throwing arm and a torn rotator cuff in the shoulder of his throwing arm, whose offseason conditioning has been playing catch with high school kids and who's missed his new team's entire ota and training camp work. Forget that the offense and its terminology are similar to what he played in Green Bay. You've got to be with a team in its advance prep stages to really fit in and as qb make it go.
