@3 He's slightly above mediocre, having stuck with the same team for 8 seasons. He's proven to be a excellent holder on placekicks, which isn't nearly as easy as it looks.
Your point is nevertheless valid. He's never gonna win any awards on the field. Getting Colbert to motorboat some gay ass on camera should win him an Emmy, however.
I met him at a fundraiser for Minnesotans United for all Families just before the election. He was just as charmingin person as I imagined he'd be and was super gracious about my babbling on about the Vikings and sparkleponies.
I love him, and it's a great interview--he and Colbert are oddly well matched. BUT... The stocking cap and flip-flops on national TV are just not right (the jeans and t-shirt are okay, not great but okay). He needs to find a gay to help dress him--I volunteer.
Which is unfortunate, because it limits his "life span" as a public figure.

Note: I never read the article. Just looked at the pictures.
