Thread: QB Kirk Cousins leaving Vikings for 4-year deal with Falcons

I don’t begrudge his money, just glad it was never Broncos’ money he stole.

IDK, could be the skills that have kept him in the top 10-15 QBs in the world. Seems somewhat rare.

Been a starter for 9 years, won 1 playoff game.

He's a good fantasy QB, and I respect the hustle, but he's nothing to write home about.

He's a good QB. Playoff wins aren't the end-all-be-all. Mark Sanchez was a winner, and that guy sucked ass.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Kirk Cousins does not end his career with 1 playoff win.


Personally, I would love to see Atlanta win a SB since our team sure as **** ain't gonna do it. I would love to see the narrative shift around Cousins of that happened.

No matter where Kirk ends up he has played the system well and made a lot of money. Some of the issues might be on him but he certainly hasnt always had the help around him either throughout his career.

He’s a poor man’s Derek Carr, a very poor man’s Derek Carr, his superpower is contract negotiations.

Kirk is gonna look shexy in that Falcons uni tho. Dressed for success, he might win a SB

I hope you’re not writing letters to your family about any quarterbacks; that’s just weird.

Then you make this post, providing a twist to the conversation.

I hated Kirk Cousins since Michigan St days, then Shanatan screws RGIII over for KC . . . and then this happened . . .



Reminded me of Tebow’s pretentious posing.

**** off, fagboy.

He may not be Payton Manning, but RG3 was not a good quarterback.

Yes, he was.

I loved RG3 coming out of college. Dude seemed kinda revolutionary at the time. He was sort of the first of this new generation. He was the prototype that just didn't have all the internals of the final product, but still a really good example of what we have come to see.

He was destroying the league until Shanahan mismanaged his injury. How badly did he mismanage it? So badly that his story, and the team doctor's story changed multiple times about the injury. That was pathetic. When I saw him do an interview with Shannon Sharpe and said plainly that he didn't want RG3 to play more in the pocket post-injury I knew he was washed up.

Shanahan is one of the five best coaches I've ever seen, but that was horrifical.

Doesn’t Kirk negotiate his own deals?
