Cousins has done exactly what Cousins does. Good numbers . Can't win big games . .500 record . Miss the playoffs .

This is only unexpected by the people who think 5 years isn't a big enough sample size lol

one of the biggest jokes is the Falcons record.
WTF happened to them? I really thought they were gonna be dangerous contenders before the season.

Isnt Cousins Contract fully guaranteed? Think the Joke is on the GM if so.

but yeah Cousins is up there in the joke worthiness
Falcons depth sucks . It has for years . They've just been fortunate to not have serious injury issues til this year . Defense was pretty decimated as well as the OL and losing Freeman hurt too.

Skill guys overall have gave been decent. Ryan has played well especially considering how awful the run game and OL have been . Receivers have played well and Hooper has been solid. Ultimately the guys will get healthy going into next year but the depth needs to be addressed in the draft because they don't have the cash to do it in FA

Cousins fully guaranteed contract, and Smiths crazy injury guarantee will most likely stop any QB in the future of getting such deals.

Yeah Cousins is right up there. Turns out all the suspicions that he just stat pads against bad teams were true. I wanted to believe that it was just because he was on that horrendous Redskins franchise before going to the Vikings, but it turns out I was wrong. Worst of all, they're locked into a fully guaranteed contract to pay him top dollar for another 2 years. Hopefully this failure is a serious setback to fully guaranteed deals in the NFL by proving just how stupid they are. That Cousins flop is going to single-handedly set that franchise back another 5 seasons minimum by putting them in salary cap hell with a QB who can't get it done.

ATL...in a word, injuries. Big ones...maybe not the best game day coaching in a few as well. Pass rush was over rated. Quite a few pissed off fans, but the injuries are going to give coach Q a pass for 2018.

& I thought Smith was the better option for the Skins.

Not me, he was Mark Brunnel 2.0 and now the Redskins have the worst QB situation in the league as they are tied to his contract and won't be able to find a QB picking mid first round in a terrible draft for QBs. Now I won'y lie, Kirk is doing exactly as his critics predicted. But that does not mean the Redskins didn't fuck up too.

I really liked the one I heard on here about Hue becoming HC of Bengals & Marvin heading upstairs.
Not sure if it can get funnier than that.

I win!
When I first read that I thought it was an article from the onion.

I blew a speaker in my car today....










He was a motivational speaker
I needed that, only half hour before I gotta get ready for work, this made me chuckle. Ahhh, the little things.

His wiki page currently:

Kirk Daniel Cousins, also known as 'The 84 Million Dollar Mistake,' is an American football quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings of the National Football League.

I also figured Cousins was good for a 7.8-8.0 YPA this year. He has just sucked

Still trying to figure out the strategy of playing Gronk deep to protect a Hail Mary that would have needed to travel 75 yards just to reach the goal line. The only option for Miami, obviously, was the lateral play that never works. Well unless you have Herman Munster playing deep safety.

What a difference one year makes. December 2017, Minny is eyeballing a first round bye and has a realistic shot at HFA all the way through the SB. Zimmer is being talked about as a dark horse for COY. Keenum is leading basically the exact same team to all of this playing for peanuts and his future.
Fast forward to December 2018. They didn't think Keenum was worth it to sign (probably right but whatever) so they go out and sign this guy for an atrocious amount of money and now barely a .500 team. And the bigger question being is Zimmer's job in jeopardy? They are stuck with Cousins so we can lol at that but this is a huge downfall for a team that was supposed to be a contender. O-line issues and no running game doesn't help but the Vikings are just limping along here and don't scare anybody.

Yet after all this still have life for a WC spot
Need the Vikings to lose 2 out of their last 3 and the Eagles, Skins and Panthers to lose at least one more each (as well as winning out ourselves), but yeah, still alive.
