How does he do in the final two minutes? It's the only stat that matters. Cousins had the #30 QB Rating in the final two minutes of halves last season. You can't be that bad and have any real expectations of a deep run in the playoffs.

The final two minutes is about leadership, charisma and moxy. He has very little of it.





Like clockwork - posting the same 2020 stat over and over again. What's the p value on that n sample when compared to his season and career?

Or even more relevant - compared to final two minutes for his career?

Perhaps reposting facts bothers your narrative...

What bothers me is it's a cherry picked stat that I don't even know if it's true that Brad uses to push his agenda. He's not even a Vikings fan.

How does a guy with the #30 Quarterback Rating in the final two minutes of halves suddenly become a top-5 or top-10 quarterback? You guys are living in an amnesia-filled, spring/summer fog. Kirk Cousins is a 15-20 quarterback in the league. That's what he is. Sometimes he looks like a top-10 guy. Sometimes he looks like a 25-32 guy.

What year did you get that stat from?

I just read a Dec. 3rd, 2020 article from PFF saying Cousins has one of the top 4th quarter ratings. I'm not putting a lot of stock in it because we had 3-4 games with some garbage time to it. And I don't believe Cousins is better in 4th quarters than Mahomes(who he is ahead of).

End of 1st halves really mean nothing to me when you have Zimmer as a HC. We sit on it many more times than we get aggressive. Especially on the Road or if we are ahead. Or if we are getting the 2nd half KO. Or if we are deep in our own territory.

https://www.footballdb.com/statistics/nfl/player-splits/passing/last-two-minutes-half/2020

Rating in the final two minutes of halves was 63.7.

54-of-96 (56.2%) for 640 yards, five touchdowns, seven interceptions (only sacked twice).

HE WAS AWFUL, PERIOD!

Brady was 43 of 76 for 56.6% also 5 TDs (with 0 INTs/0 Sacks)

DETESTABLE!

0 interceptions for Brady. That's the stat you seem to be missing. Cousins had seven. Not even comparable numbers.

The great ones flourish under pressure. The weak ones crack.

Since I mentioned it in the post above and specifically spoke to it in my post after ... I obviously didn’t miss it.

The numbers are very comparable, except for the INTS ... which is unfortunately one of the side effects of having better-than-avg Cousins.

What you are trying to say is that none of the numbers are comparable BECAUSE OF the INTs. That’s only because you are trying to shape and mold stats as you go along. You were the one posting the debunked numbers to begin with.

I hobbled your original premise, I put a post between its ankles and I used a 5lb. heavy hammer to snap the foot right at the 2:00 mark. So I understand the mad scramble to shift focus.

Cousins is in the 11-15 range in terms of QBs.

QBs I 100% put ahead of him:

Rodgers
Brady
Watson
Mahomes
Dak
Josh Allen
Russel Wilson

QBs I 80% sure put ahead of him:

Tannehill
Lamar Jackson
Justin Herbert
Rapeyburger

QBs I 60% sure put ahead of him:

Derek Carr
Matt Ryan
Kyler Murray

Drew Brees would have been in the 100% category but not in 2020.


What has Carr ever done (division title), Ryan has lost it, Big Ben can't stay healthy.

You can't put a QB that is always hurt above Kirk.

You have to look at wins also:

Above Kirk:
Rodgers, Brady, Watson, Mahomes, Allen, Wilson. Jackson...no doubt.

Equal with Kirk: Tannehill, Herbert (hasn't won anything), Dak (hasn't won anything, injuries).

Just below Kirk: Big Ben (tons of injuries lately), Ryan (lost it) Carr (can't win)

I agree, it is a cherry picked stat. And a damned important one. And a real one (I posted the link earlier).

You can't just omit the interceptions and say the numbers are comparable. That's a fairly important stat for a quarterback, wouldn't you say? Especially during crunch time.

One guy had zero interceptions in the final two minutes. The other guy had seven. Which guy would you want to be your quarterback?

To say they were even close to even is living in a dream world. It's not close. It's not comparable. The job of the quarterback is to deliver the ball. That's his job.

And I have zero embarrassment over it. When a guy throws seven interceptions during crunch time, it should be pointed out. He's a bad two-minute quarterback. To overlook crunch time would be neglectful.

The guy led the league in interceptions in the final two minutes of halves. Nearly doubled his closest competitor. Matt Ryan (4), Drew Lock (4), Ryan Fitzpatrick (4), Alex Smith (4). Any of those guys interest you?

Josh Allen, Taysom Hill, Carr, and Jones had more.

Wilson, Murray, Jackson, Wentz, Minshew, Goff, Mayfield, Goff, and Burrow (6 less games) just one less.

Dak had 2 less but missed 11 games....

They are not unrelated at all. For some quarterbacks, the reward of running the football is worth the risk. If Cousins had the ability to run, he would. It's just another deficiency in his game. He can't run and he can't make plays in the final two minutes of halves.

Tom Brady can't run either. He had one lost fumble.
Philip Rivers, one.
Ben Roethlisberger, zero.

Why? Because they take care of the ball.

Cherry picking (missing quite a few off of the list).....If the line is improved I think the fumble issue will improve...IMO.

It isn't necessarily rushing QBs either; they handle the ball a ton; so it will happen at times.....Tom fumbled it 4 times last year with a better line.

Unrelated and pointless. Quarterback runs end with the QB stepping out of bounds, crossing the goal line or hitting the deck before contact.

Never? No. Just not very often on running plays. QB's are trained to end the run before they get hit. Tell me how many of their fumbles came on runs.

I watched Josh Allen almost every play this season because he was my fantasy quarterback. The lion's share of his fumbles came when he was running. He doesn't duck anybody. He's a man child.

How many fumbles actually occurred on rushing attempts? Otherwise, you're just combining 2 unrelated stats.

They are not unrelated at all. For some quarterbacks, the reward of running the football is worth the risk. If Cousins had the ability to run, he would. It's just another deficiency in his game. He can't run and he can't make plays in the final two minutes of halves.

Tom Brady can't run either. He had one lost fumble.
Philip Rivers, one.
Ben Roethlisberger, zero.

Why? Because they take care of the ball.

Unrelated and pointless. Quarterback runs end with the QB stepping out of bounds, crossing the goal line or hitting the deck before contact.

Are you saying Josh Allen, Taysom Hill, Lamar Jackson and Kyler Murray never got hit?

Never? No. Just not very often on running plays. QB's are trained to end the run before they get hit. Tell me how many of their fumbles came on runs.

I watched Josh Allen almost every play this season because he was my fantasy quarterback. The lion's share of his fumbles came when he was running. He doesn't duck anybody. He's a man child.

Provide the numbers for all the QB's you listed to support your argument.

No thank you. Innocent until proven guilty. You say I'm wrong. Prove it.
