Any change they're wrong? How many rings do they have?

Yes. Keenum had a bad NFC Championship game (though not as bad as some make out), but
he had a pretty good game against NO the week before. Cousins, on the other hand, had one
playoff game that he earned during the season in 2015. (He played in another as a rookie,
replacing the starter). He played a pretty good game, but it was a one-and-out.

To me, the Vikings just threw away a bunch of money by jettisoning Keenum for Cousins. And
the Broncos might feel the same way since they didn't even talk to Cousins. But what do I
know?

I love the stupid argument that MN couldn't wait to get rid of Keenum. The Redskins had 3+ years to lock up Cousins. Did they? Nope. They let him walk.

Just because you don't agree with it doesn't mean it's stupid. One franchise in this scenario is Washington, one of the worst franchises in the entire league. The other franchise is Minnesota, who are being heralded as being one of the best ran franchises in the league. You can't equate one decision to let someone walk with the other, Joe.

There's always a chance - the regime is ringless but they are more than competent. And, to be fair, had CK not shit the bed, they might not be ringless.

It's not the same. At all. The redskins totally botched that situation, and everyone knows it. If they had to do it over again, they would.

Wow, all this drama over Case Keenum. For reals?

The 50-yard-line misses him too, said it hopes he comes back so its tackle numbers go up in a contract season.

Remind me how many superbowls they've won again?

See above.

What does the old Viking regime have to do with this one?

Let's apply this logic - you're saying since they have no SBs they're not any good, or their choices are suspect, or whatever it is you're trying to say.

Now, Al Davis won three SB's running his team. So, by your logic, since he won those SB's, surely those drafting choices during the last ten or fifteen years of his career were wonderful, right?

You know better. You're just getting a rise out of me to pass the time, you sly old fox.

I can't wait for Cousins to shit the bed, and make you lick the sheets. Vikings are a team I've always held as my 2nd favorite. I'd love to see them finally win one.

I think they made a mistake with letting Keenum go and signing Cousins.

Could I be wrong? Of course. That's the difference between you and I. I know I don't know. You don't.

As long as he's an upgrade of CK, it was the right move for them because that was the only major hole on the team.

You are incredible, Joe. Contrary to what you think about me, I don't think I'm infallible. I'm no more adamant on my position than Ziggy, Chaz, Coach, Fish, etc. Or...wait for it wait for it wait for it...you. I'm disappointed in you.

He's tearing us apart. Or something. If that guy does something more than make us a WC contender, I'll buy jersey and make an apology video. I will literally buy a jersey, and record myself apologizing to him on a personal level, put it out there on twitter, and post it here.

Granted there's about a 1% chance of that, if that.
