From what I could see on social media (admittedly not the best barometer) Vikings fans said at the time of signing Cousins that he was the missing pace of the jigsaw, all they needed was a QB to become a championship team. Now he's not performing its like they don't want to admit he's not all that so it's the O-line that has always needed an upgrade.

I'm not saying you're doing this but its what I've seen online a fair bit.

Always said line was priority. Pretty sure on here even before we were linked with Cousins. Definitely when we were first linked with him.
Line depth been a problem for at least 3 years particularly when Khalil got injured and then moved onto the Panthers.
Irony is Bridgewater hadn't got injured pretty sure none of this would be an issue.

Isn't Bridgewater a third choice QB nowadays?

backing up Brees at the Saints. Started season at Jets but they've gone with Darnold.

 

[tisza]

De Filippo fired. See if someone else can sort out the disaster known as the Vikings offense.

 

[Otis]

Anyone within their own ranks you think? (a step up)

 

[Otis]

Ha! Just found out our new QB, who hasn't thrown a meaningful pass in 7 years, had to play Madden just to learn the names of his new teammates.

Word going round the NFL at the moment that if Johnson somehow takes the Redskins to the playoffs it will be the greatest football story of all time.

Some would argue he didn't throw many meaningful passes when he was in the Nfl over 7 years ago

QB coach taking over for now. Giants wanted him when Shurmur took over.
But looking at Cousins this year not sure how good he might be

LOL Rodgers puts up 34 pts meanwhile brady loses(over the golden child QB and superbowl finalists of just 2 years ago who brady struggled with)

GOAT debate over

GB playoff hopes still alive for another week lol. ill take that. Bears look good so it is probably over this weekend

What an awful attempt

fish

 

[covcity4life]

not an attempt. just a fact.

egg on face for people putting packer losses down to AR LOL.

still will end up regretting poor ref decisions on clay mathews perfect sacks and fumbles and missed field goals. But seasons still alive to will enjoy it for the next week.

 

[tisza]

So the Packers manage

What an awful attempt

fish

Rodgers managed 196 passing yards against the 6th worst defence in NFL.
Let's be generous and say he managed 20 pts against that defence. Packers defence scored 2 TDs.
Rodgers qbr down 20% on season average.
Maybe the credit should actually go to Philbin.
But you're right don't let facts ruin a good fishing expedition

 

[covcity4life]

there is no point giving it out if you cant take it back guys. boring

i know you both support teams where the QB is doing great currently but let me be happy.

Think you'll win a road game at some point this season?

Yeah, definitely agree. That's definitely the exact conclusion any sane person would all come to based on one single, solitary game.

 

[covcity4life]

as bad as 1 season where you dont take it into context

eat humble pie. i have won again

Judging on one season is the same as judging on one game.

Righto.

Tony Romo during chiefs ravens game on a mahonnes pass

"I don't think any other quarterback other than Aaron Rodgers makes that pass"

Yup goat Brady not even considered

LMAO your BBC nfl show even comes back to haunt you hahhah

 

[Otis]

Geez you're a very weird sad man.

 

[speedie87]

Call me insane but I’m really starting to think the giants are going to make it as a wildcard

 

[covcity4life]

Call me insane but I’m really starting to think the giants are going to make it as a wildcard

On a good run for sure but tough ask.

 

[Otis]

You're insane.

 

[speedie87]

On a good run for sure but tough ask.

If they win out there is a 12% chance apparently.

 

[Otis]

Yeah, but they have the Titans, Colts and Cowboys left to play.

They're very tough fixtures.

A bit too little too late I think.

Unlike the Redskins of course,who now have star quarterback at the helm and will surely win through.

 

[covcity4life]

Green bay had 3% chance last week . Anything is possible!

To be honest, I can see the Packers maybe beating the Bears.

Rodgers is the type of QB who can do the unusual and I think that is what is needed to put the ferocious Chicago defence on the back foot.

Agree he is undisputed g.o.a.t Otis

However bears look scary and i fear it is season over next sunday

 

[tisza]

Looks like Hunt is going to derail the Chiefs. No running game against Chargers.
Some dodgy calls 4th quarter calls costly.

Are Andy Reid's team burning out when it matters again?

Shock!

Maybe, but his win ratio is way, way superior to Jay Gruden's win ratio.........oh, that's right, I forgot, we don't even have a winning record under Jay Gruden.

Consistent though
