There are plenty of reasons why Cousins isn't a good qb.

-Doesn't take care of the football
-Holds the ball too long
-Poor pocket presence
-Abysmal in the last 2min of the first half and end of games (2min drill)
-Primetime record 7-16
-A putrid 4-24 against teams with a winning record

Whenever anyone describes Cousin there is always the caveat "For Kirk to be effective everything needs to be on schedule around him"

Does a good job taking care of the football.
Has the courage to hold the ball long enough to make the play.
Good pocket presence
Just fine in 2 minute drill.
Who gives a F about Prime time. Just a game no different than any other.
Teams win or lose. Not the QB.

I swear to God ... you care less about accuracy than anyone else on this board.

My statement was fully accurate. Of course you will say that's inaccurate.

No just a bit misleading, as you meant it

Now I'm confused. My take on Kirk is that he's a very good QB and talented at about every facet of playing the position.

It will be fun to watch people lose their minds when Cousins is getting 55M/yr.

There are plenty of reasons why Cousins isn't a good qb.

-Doesn't take care of the football
-Holds the ball too long
-Poor pocket presence
-Abysmal in the last 2min of the first half and end of games (2min drill)
-Primetime record 7-16
-A putrid 4-24 against teams with a winning record

Whenever anyone describes Cousin there is always the caveat "For Kirk to be effective everything needs to be on schedule around him"

Does a good job taking care of the football.
Has the courage to hold the ball long enough to make the play.
Good pocket presence
Just fine in 2 minute drill.
Who gives a F about Prime time. Just a game no different than any other.
Teams win or lose. Not the QB.

I swear to God ... you care less about accuracy than anyone else on this board.

My statement was fully accurate. Of course you will say that's inaccurate.

No just a bit misleading, as you meant it

Now I'm confused. My take on Kirk is that he's a very good QB and talented at about every facet of playing the position.

Those are some real thick purple goggles your wearing.

Kirk Cousins is Jay Cutler + accurate throws

Kirk Cousins is Aaron Rodgers - pocket movement

I can't picture him being consistently clutch, but with a decent OL, all he needs is a little "You like that ?" chip on his shoulder and a SB win is a possibility.

Aaron Rodgers will become Kirk Cousins in his later years, should he lose his mobility.

I think Rodgers will become Cousins in 2 years, maybe this year, if he goes to a poor team.

I don't even know where to start with this.

Kirk Cousins is Aaron Rodgers, - minus pocket movement, pre-snap reads, leadership skills, moxy and football IQ. That's a little closer.

You say Cousins takes good care of the football when he was tied for second with the most turnovers in the league last season. Maybe check some facts before you type next time.

Consider that the Vikings finished 4th in the NFL in offense with what we all consider horrid OL play. If the OL play is better is #1 not within our reach?

Cousins has had one of the better TD to INT ratings in the league throughout his career. I believe that adjusted INT rate chart shared here had him in the top 6 tied with Brady. Consider how horrible the OL play was and how much worse Cousins TOs should have been. Next question.

-Abysmal in the last 2min of the first half and end of games (2min drill)
-Primetime record 7-16
-A putrid 4-24 against teams with a winning record

Whenever anyone describes Cousin there is always the caveat "For Kirk to be effective everything needs to be on schedule around him"

Does a good job taking care of the football.
Has the courage to hold the ball long enough to make the play.
Good pocket presence
Just fine in 2 minute drill.
Who gives a F about Prime time. Just a game no different than any other.
Teams win or lose. Not the QB.

I swear to God ... you care less about accuracy than anyone else on this board.

My statement was fully accurate. Of course you will say that's inaccurate.

No just a bit misleading, as you meant it

Now I'm confused. My take on Kirk is that he's a very good QB and talented at about every facet of playing the position.

I actually thought I was replying to David F. It had all the earmarks. Still your post was a bit misleading, although possibly not intentionally.

I'm trying to figure out the part that could have been misleading. Just my opinion backed up with a lot of statistical facts.

Where are these statistical facts?

You say Cousins takes good care of the football when he was tied for second with the most turnovers in the league last season. Maybe check some facts before you type next time.

Cousins has had one of the better TD to INT ratings in the league throughout his career. I believe that adjusted INT rate chart shared here had him in the top 6 tied with Brady. Consider how horrible the OL play was and how much worse Cousins TOs should have been. Next question.

Were you dropped on your head as a baby?

Nice ad hominem argument there Bill. How about replacing it with a logical one. As for being dropped on my head as a baby I really doubt I would remember it. Do you remember the entirety of your baby time and know whether or not you were dropped on your head?
