Non factor won't cut it obviously. I used the Vikings last to show a team who had minimal contributions from their QB.
However, there are plenty of other examples of teams that find ways to win but don't have great QBs. Including the defending SB champions.
The Rams must play good to great defense, have a dynamic running attack that people must account for and need the QB to not lose the game and if we are lucky make a few plays that can win a close game.
For example can they have their QB operate in 15th to 20th range as opposed dead last? Well with a dominant run game and defense heck yeah a QB operating in that range can make a 3 game difference.
Now let me be clear. I don't think it's likely but I sure see the logic behind it. However, I have little confidence in Fishers coaching ability on the offensive side to make that happen

I think you're not looking at the big picture of that Vikings 11-5 record. The Packers were on a down year and the Bears and Lions weren't really any good. My point being, I don't think it can just be said that a team can win a division and post 11 wins with QB play that is a non-factor, a good running game and good defense.
