This is such a horeshyt take. There have been plenty of Avg Quarterbacks that have won a Bowl. Foles, Dilfer, Flacco just to name a few. If you put Cousins on any of those Ravens teams they are still winning the championship. 

The Ravens defense led Trent Dilfer to a Super Bowl ring.  However, that wasn't the case for Joe Flacco.  Joe actually had one of the best postseason runs in history.  And he needed it because the defense wasn't what it used to be.  He had to win some shootouts.  The same holds true for Nick Foles.  He went on a very good run in the postseason.  He wasn't in a sidecar like Dilfer.

Sam Darnold and Kirk Cousins super fan. You've got some bizarre taste.

To put it in stock market terms, his P/E ratio has him overvalued.

That's because he was a real free agent and the team that scooped him up thought he was the missing puzzle piece to a Super Bowl (they made the championship game with Case Keenum).

So he's mad that we solved Cleveland's problem instead of the Vikings' problem. 

But he also says Cousins isn't the problem, in fact he's a 'cut above' Mayfield (who ranked higher than Cousins in 2018 and 2020). Why would you be offended that a team wouldn't want to trade picks away for Cousins and his $45M cap hit?

Diggs regularly voiced frustration about the direction of the Vikings and his role on the team, and his seemingly negative tweet after Minnesota extended Kirk Cousins in March preceded his trade to Buffalo that night. Diggs tweeted "it's time for a new beginning" after the team announced the Cousins deal.

    • I saw an interesting point the other day about our type of situation.  It could have been wise to hold him off for 1-2 weeks, but that would not have anything to do with Bryce and you could easily communicate that from a PR standpoint.   Why? Well, we just brought an entirely new staff into town, new offense for the returning OL, and had wholesale turnover elsewhere.  So just run Dalton out there the first game or so to see how things are shaking out.  Dry run to make sure we won't kill the kid.  We weren't eyeing the SB.  Get a sense of the line, the receivers, the playbook.  It gives you a glimpse of what Bryce would be stepping into and a good barometer on where things stood sans him.  I suppose we sort of did that with Dalton, but that was a reactive switch and like @Ricky Spanish mentioned, it was against an injured SEA defense where we threw a ridiculous amount.  Who knows, maybe we could have at least won a game or two more that way.  You can adjustments prior to Bryce stepping in, better tee it up for him, and maybe we end up winning game 1 or 2. Last year was such a sh*tshow.  One of the worst seasons I've ever experienced in any sport for any team.  Absolutely nothing made sense together.  Happy we cut the cord early, but should have never hired that crew in the first place.   
    • Johnson is gonna want $20M+ next year. That's why they should have drafted Ladd.
    • It's like folk didn't even watch the game. Dalton took a beating, and barely avoided a lot more violent hits. No 35 years old QB is going to survive a season like that. Imagine him against Dallas or Houston or Indy or Detroit or New Orleans twice! He played better than Bryce in that 1 game, but he wouldn't have lasted half the season.
