I'd rather have Jimmy G., but if a QB trade is going down (and it appears it will) Cousins isn't the worst option.  My question is what do we give up?  I'm more worried about that than Cousins being a Panther.

We will never win the Super Bowl with Cousins. Why would you be ok with that?

let the downward spiral continue

Oh yeah because Cousins is so terrible right? The fug do you people here have against the guy? He’d immediately be the 2nd best QB we’ve ever had, and he puts up pure passing stats that poo on any season Cam ever had except maybe his MVP year.

Cousins isn't bad, but he hasn't struck me as great either. The Vikings paid for "great" but the best they ever got out of him was "pretty good".

Is he better than what we have? Probably, but I'd really like to know what we're thinking of trading if we go that route.

His stats are “great”. He was like the 3rd highest rated passer this year and is always right up there with the league leaders in every important stat.

He's not a QB who will ever win the SB.

I wouldn't call Cousins a franchise quarterback.

But I also wouldn't run screaming into the night if we acquired him via reasonable trade compensation.

(hell no on a first rounder)

Cousins would be Carolina’s version of Jimmy G. If you surround him with enough talent then he can get you deep in the playoffs. The problem is……do we have THAT much talent? I would think with that contract you could probably land him with a 3rd or 4th round pick or a 2nd next year. 

Cousins is 10x the QB Jimmy ever thought about being.

We are not winning a Super Bowl with Rhule no matter who we get at QB.  My point is, if Rhule is hell bent about acquiring a QB, Cousins isn't the worst option.  Who you got we trade for at QB that's not a pipe dream?

Cousins is probably the top QB in the middle tier of QB’s like Garopollo, Carr, Tannehill

Higher completion percentage type guys. Won’t win because of them. More likely to check down on a 3rd and long and raise that completion percentage than risk an incompletion throwing for a 1st down 

And no, I do not want Kirk f’n Cousins

Why is it so hard for teams to realize that certain QB’s will never win a Super Bowl. If they are not in that category why spend top of the market for performance like that. It’s like giving Teddy a 60 million dollar contract, it’s wasted because he will never sniff a Super Bowl. It’s a waste of cap and a waste of draft picks. I won’t get pissed unless it happens but if it does, we deserve the results.

He's also 34, on the last year of his deal and the cap hit is like $45M. Unless they really wanna let him go and cover half his salary I don't see how it would be possible. Seems like another complete waste of time and resources to win like 3 more games

    • Umm yeah. When did he get it done at the right time? I seem to remember a 4-6 finish and needing Atlanta to win our way into the playoffs but whatever.   
    • I mean....no lies detected. See above. We have traded a fortune to draft a guy #1 overall that people have lowered standards for to the point that not playing like Jimmy Clausen and looking like a poor man's Kyle Allen occasionally is worthy of a contract extension making him one of the highest paid QB's in the league. That is cope on steroids.
    • summary: "let's talk about your draft, what did you think about Freeling" Dan:   guys with a huge upside, can come in and compete to start.  High ceiling "he does what for your offense?" Dan:   it's hard to find left tackles, guys that big and athletic.  We have Icky coming off an injury, we signed Walker, I believe your offensive line can never be too strong.  If we're going to win the game, it's gotta be up front on both sides of the ball, so we make a point of emphasis on making both sides of the front as strong as possible. "how many mocks did you see Monro falling to you." Not many times, left tackles are gonna go a lot earlier than when we took him.  We want to add the best player, in free agency or the draft"  that's our philosophy, to get the best players possible. "Hunter and Brazzell." Dan:  we followed the board.  Lee we felt very highly of him , super strong.  Brazzel so flexible and loose, can open the verticle.  Will Lee we held in high regard. "you take a look at your receiver room, Coker, my goodness, your offensive rookie of the year in Tet.  Lost Rico, but there is Jonathan Brooks. " Brooks coming off two knee injuries, he worked his way back, looking great, fully healthy, will help in pass and run game.  Icky, not sure when he's coming back but we're excited about both "plan on extending Bryce" we'll keep talking, will keep internally.  We believe in him, has such a great grasp of Canales and offense, has improved every year. "he's clearly come back from the benching, the arrow is trending up, where does he feel" Bryce knows where we stand with him, when and if a deal gets done, he knows we feel great with him, we'll get something done at the right time. "if this a prove it situation?" everyone in the building has to prove it, has to earn it. Tmac was everything we wanted, his work ethic, he's so big and talented, but he puts the work in, and is a great teammate. "your level of expectation, the building's level of expectation for 2026 "our goal is to win the division every year, we know we have to earn it.  we have to put the work in every day, proving it on the practice field, and our  guys know that." "schedule" we haven't opened at home in 2 or 3 years.  We love prime time games, hope we get some "
