Really? 

We need 8?

Back in the golden days, it was 1 (in my best geezer voice):

Not every team has the players vote, some teams have the coaches do it. Hell, Cam Ward has been named captain (eye roll) and other rookies have as well. But legit captain below, this boy has those real leadership skills:

'Multiple' Superbowls?

The Purple Persuasion

If @SethWickersham
had his pick of QB's under 25 to win multiple Super Bowls, it's not Jayden Daniels, it's not CJ Stroud, its JJ McCarthy.

The biggest factor being Vikings HC Kevin O'Connell, "he knows how to speak quarterback and I think they're going to be really successful."

can we let him play in a real game first?  I know the hype is fun,  but some of this is pretty over the top for a guy with only about 15 minutes of action in an nfl uniform,  none of it being in games that count.

as far as KOC... maybe lets start with a playoff win and then start talking superbowls?

lol, yeah the NFL media enjoys the shit out of their hype. Can't argue that. Its what they do and its gathers engagement big time. I sometimes doubt they believe half of what they say. 

But I guess the alternative is what at this point in a 24/7 sports cycle where your job in the media is to get fans excited or angry? Its part of it. You, I and many older fans get fatigued with it all....we aren't the target demo any longer. Its a content issue, always needing more and more for the pipeline. 

We're almost there, 6 days until the footballs in the air will be live.

all this offseason hype makes me think we are turning into a bunch of slobbering packer fans... I cant imagine the frenzy over there yesterday.  Big Grin
