If you have an unpopular opinion based on niche evidence, just state your case and move on. I do this all the time.

It was more about ability rather than value, unless you mean those tiers, which simply omit a "These qbs are...(descriptive predicate)" opening clause,. I never said they crushed Campbell, just had one or two aspects/abilities that they're much better at.
Smith's one-trick pony ability to run the spread is his only hope of having success. Doubtful he'll ever make it, but if he can make it work, he can make it work. Campbell doesn't even have a specialty that he's good at [yet], even though it's not all his fault for all the turnover stunting him. Gradkowski edge is pocket presence and decision-making.

You can't change a my position vs. your position debate to a me vs. you debate because I don't give two craps about you as a person. It's nothing personal, but I've been on the WP a long time, and with the exception of a select few 15-20 group that makes this place fun to keep coming back to, I simply draw a line between your argument, which I am clearly passionate about, and you, who couldn't mean less to me.

Fine with me, just refrain from silliness like accusing people of blind faith when they're inferring from the evidence with regards to Shanahan's reliable track record with offense and his QBs or throwing in the aforementioned JC generalization in the middle of a post then.
