    He’s a alias more than likely redsoxx or worm. Maybe resgod.

    @TimmyT what do you think of this criticism about your QB?

    i'm ok with what the scout and skip & shannon said. i understand why Kirk would still have doubters.

    hopefully we can start beating some of the tougher opponents (like the Chiefs on Sunday) so he can prove those guys wrong :)

    Agree, Cousins will show if he’s worth the amount Vikings paid down the stretch...he will have to come up with some big drives as the schedule toughness up...@chiefs, @cowboys, @ Seattle...will be big

    Your D, dalvin cook, o-line have all performed up to par...but Super Bowl Vikings team need Kirk Cousins take that next step

    @Detroit24 i agree with you totally.

    @Chewie vs @Boos the eagles face the bears. i wonder if the eagles rookie tackle will be able to slow down khalil. will tribuisky step up and break the bears losing streak. what are you guys thinking?

    I think it’s a pretty easy win for us honestly. Pederson will be able to scheme Mack out of the game like we did in the playoffs, and Trubisky is just awful. I see us winning like 31-13

    The anonymous source is mostly right but he’s not saying anything that people who’ve watched football/Kirk Cousins specifically don’t already know. Cousins is a volatile QB. When he’s playing well, he’s playing like a top 10 QB in the NFL. Since week 5, I believe he has the highest passing grade in the NFL according to PFF. The issue is, this level of play never lasts with Cousins. He’s going to eventually come down to earth & when he does, that’s when we start to see the subpar/bad Cousins. The true definition of a “hit-or-miss” QB.

    What y’all should disregard is that bit about Cousin’s recent success having to do with a “commitment to the run game.” That’s bs. Minnesota has been running the ball all season & we saw Cousins struggle earlier on in the season. Also, committing to running the ball does not help you pass the ball better. That’s a huge misconception.

    As long as a team doesn’t shut out Cook, I think that will be enough pressure off Cousins where he can be accurate. Now if Cook is being shut out and Cousins has to throw every down. I’d be worried. Cousins could throw a pick at anytime. However, he seems to have only gotten better as the year went so he may be on a another level for all we know. If cousins plays good and their defense stays healthy, they’re honestly a nfc contender. I was surprised how much big name sport analysts was predicting Vikings to beat the chiefs this week.

    but d--- I should have risked Cook in a few leagues. I had a good feeling about him but didn’t draft him. You could get him in a second round too. What a steal of a pick he was. He’s probably number 1 rb or Macaffrey.

    other than the Packers game and I think maybe 1 other game, Kirk has been great this year. But his reputation is that he sucks in the big games/vs. top teams so it's too early to be getting too hyped bout his play imo..

    Some big games coming up though so he could really prove himself winning some of these big games, it'd be real nice to get 2 out of 3 wins in this @KC, @dallas and @Seattle stretch. also gotta beat the d--- Packers later this year when they play again hopefully.

    Lol
    I see is regrouping this week and getting back to .500 our offense showed progress last week we just couldn’t punch it in once we got to the redzone. Plus it’s a good matchup for our defense. Bears 20 - Eagles 13

    I wish. Moving away from London was a stupid thing to do. I'd only be about 20-40mins away from both stadiums. Maybe next year!

    Holy f--- is Carson Wentz terrible and horrible fantasy qb. If I didn’t pick up Brees while he was hurt off waivers, I’d honestly pick up Rudolph and start him over Wentz. Come on Wentz. I need you to throw some td’s second half. Bears defense is overrated.

    And Singletary 8 carries for 50 yards. Why in the f--- won’t the Bills give him the ball more. They finally have an ok team and can’t get this offense going. They need a new coach and offensive coordinator.

    Bears offense is disgusting and our defense fell off. We’re done.

    bad offensive execution late in the game by Minnesota and big plays were the story of this game

    the Vikings had 2 drives late in the 4th where they went backwards. And on defense that long TD run and that TD pass to Hill we’re backbreakers

    I don’t even remember picking the browns over Denver. I’ll never pick that s-----y team again just because Baker is a number 3 qb on a nfl team. He has a arguable top 5 running back. Odell who was elite back in his prime, and he can’t do s--- and is painful to watch him. When he gets a snap, he can’t just throw the ball in the pocket quick. He has to scramble right or left then tries throwing. If you’re still sticking up for Baker now, it’s just because you were someone calling him elite and a top 10 qb.

    My prediction with Odell about to go crazy is becoming true. He just said at the game that he can’t get a ball thrown to him to save his life. And he was on the sidelines throwing his arms around. Odell may have the power to tell the browns GM to start their backup qb or he isn’t playing anymore for them. There’s no excuse for Baker to be this f---ing bad. Manziel was honestly better than Baker. Imagine if he had Chub and Odell to throw to.
