This is just for bragging rights. Can you pick the winners for next week? I was a very pedestrian 10/3 last week and I missed the total MN pts. by 30.

Without Mathews and Rogers the Packers are not much better than the Vikings.

Yeah but the Packers will be back, purple won't.

It's amazing the effect one or two players has at this level.

QB more than LB or really any other player.  But that's because the NFL today is not your father's NFL: in 1978, 26/28 teams attempted more running plays than passing plays; in 2010, 4/32 teams ran more than passed.  QB is everything now to a team and even to a player.  Just ask Greg Jennings.

The Colts went from 10-6 to 2-14 after Manning went out with more neck surgery. That one player made all the difference.

Hard to argue with that, especially when you look at the last ten Super Bowl winning QBs.

Super Bowl 38. Tom Brady (MVP), 3 TDs
Super Bowl 39. Tom Brady (Deion Branch), 2 TDs
Super Bowl 40. Ben Roethlisberger (Hines Ward), 0 TDs
Super Bowl 41. Peyton Manning (MVP), 1 TD
Super Bowl 42. Eli Manning (MVP), 2 TDs
Super Bowl 43: Ben Roethlisberger (Santonio Holmes), 1 TD
Super Bowl 44: Drew Brees (MVP), 2 TDs
Super Bowl 45: Aaron Rogers (MVP), 3TDs
Super Bowl 46: Eli Manning (MVP), 1 TD
Super Bowl 47: Joe Flacco (MVP), 3TDs

Not too many scrubs on that list.

I still say pass rusher is the 2nd most valuable asset to a team because the new rules favor the receivers over the DBs, so the only way to stop a good QB is to disrupt his rhythm or get him on the ground.

Offensive line is the key, without it the best QB in the game would be running for his life.

+1

O-Line is the most important part of a football team IMO. A good O-Line can make an OK running back look great, and an effective running back can make a mediocre QB very good.
