He's a winner. And that's what it's all about." I just don't buy it.
He may end up being great. He may change the NFL. He may revolutionize the position. But I don't think he will be sucessful because he is a "winner".
Sorry for the rant. And this wasn't directed soley at you.

Yep.
"He makes the big plays when it matters."
It'd be nice if he could make the majority of the other plays, too.
