Leadership/ Joe Kapp

[Bobby Bass]

There has been talk here of Brad Johnson and his leadership of the re surging Vikings and the lack of leadership? by Cullpeper. My vote for leadership is Joe Kapp... ugly passes ugly wins but teams followed him any where he went..The guy had swagger and when he was in the huddle there was no one talking but him and you ran the route he called..I don't see any of that out there now, Maybe Farve but he might be the last of an old breed..

I don't know about leadership in a broad sense but I can say with 100% confidence that WR's aren't out there running what ever route they feel like. There are set plays called in from the coaches, the QB just relays that info to the others on the field or it is sent in with a subsitute coming into the game.

I think what I want to see in the NFL these days in leadership from coaches and the front office guys. Stop letting the athletes run wild, clamp down and law down the law with these guys. 10-20 years ago Terrel Owens would have played his last game already if he pulled the same stuff he is pulling now.

peyton manning has my vote

If anyone can lead a team on the field it is Peyton Manning. I think the coaches are just there for show with that guy, it seems that they give him 3-4 plays to choose from and then he picks the one that will work with the defense he sees. No one else in the league can do that, no one else can even come close to pulling that off. He is by far the best.

From what I heard about Peyton is that the coaches tell him run right pass left and then he calls the play they just give him the direction. That is what QB did in the past but Peyton is the only one schooled in the game to be able to do it now. I would like to see Cullpeper have that experience. This reminds me of a saying that coach Greene would say about the Vikings that the QB is there just to drive the car.. Brad drives better I think

I think Culpepper was driving with a blood alcohol content of over .08 this year. He is better then he showed this year.

The only Vikings QB that could play better drunk than sober was Tommy Kramer

I think that they should put Cpep up on the block and see what they can get for him. A high draft pick to get a young qb to study under Johnson. just my 2 cents.
