It's the same things that were said about Cassel... And Huard...

This is said alot around here, but how many qbs actually do that or are asked to do that 3 very game for said team to be successful?

Rodgers is. Luck is.

Other than that, who does it as much as cp seems to demand a qb have too?

This isn't about Smith elevating those around him. It's about him playing as well as the talent around him is playing. He didn't do that enough this year.

But put a team on their back and carry it to a superbowl? There are maybe 5 guys in the league that can do that. Maybe 5.

I think you are being generous.

I think there are guys who can do it, but don't or aren't asked to as much as luck and rodgers.

How many Super Bowls has Aaron Rogers been in?

Other than that amazing 2011 run, Rogers hasn't been a world beater in the playoffs.

How many has Luck?

Like I said, I think you are being generous.

Brady. Roelisberger. Warner. Aikman. Elway. Kelly. Montana. Bradshaw. Tarkenton. Greise. Manning.

Those are the dudes, as it stands, that have done that.

But **** Smith because he's not that guy. We should have that guy. Every draft. Every free agency period.
