Yeah I'm not sure how it works as they passed on the 5th year option. I've read they can't franchise him because of that. I don't know. If not, an option?

This article from SI seems to indicate they can still franchise him.

If by a miracle he hits the open market, I believe he should/would be our number one target to bring in.

Cousins is a good QB. He's not elite but he's good. Jones is on that good backup/marginal starter category.

Cousins is on a fairly stacked offense with what looks to be a pretty good coach who knows his way around that O. Shouldn't be crawling out of a hole here in the playoffs. I've given Daniel Jones a lot of poo too but if he gets his offense down the field and scores again that's pitiful for the Vikings.

Panthers with cousins woulda won 9+ games and never traded CMC assuming rhule still got fired when he did. Cousins ain't top 5 but he's in that top 12 or better area. Yet over rated lolz! Foreskins were crazy to let him go and suffering for it.

I think people just say overrated because they don't know what else to say. I rarely see Cousins mentioned as a top 10 QB and I've never seen him mentioned as a top 5 guy. He is what he is - a borderline top 10 type guy. I don't think he's that talented but he's done a good job of maximizing the talent he has.

Are you actually watching the game? Jones is throwing to wide ass open dudes. Cousins is making the far tougher plays. Give the Giants coaches their due. These dudes are drawing it up.

That last throw was ridiculous gotta give the man props. And Cousins is throwing half as many checkdown passes too.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
