Cousins fumbles in his five seasons in Minny:

7, 10, 9, 12, 7

In six games this year: 7.

Like Elvin Hayes once said, when you get old the first thing to go is your hands.

As an aside, when Bobby Dandridge was questioned about practice he said I'm an artist not a housepainter.

He definitely looks older this year.

Less zip on his passes, less accuracy. Balls getting there late, or sailing on him. Plus, while he never had much foot speed, he was still a threat to break a few decent surprise runs each year. This year he looks like he's in cement shoes.

To be clear, it wasn't me giving you the 1 stars. So someone else must think it's pretty low that you make fun of people who choose to follow Jesus in whatever way they do.

What do get out of making fun of people? This isn't making fun of Cousins it's making fun of anyone who is a Christian. Pretty fu(kin' weak, Bill and Dan.

For me, it's just evaluating the players we have. See how they perform during the season to determine who to keep. I thought Wonnum had one of the best games I've seen him play. So, there's some development there.

First, Tolstoy barks out his latest version of War and Peace that often takes 10 seconds.
Then KFC has to re-vomit it and they have to get to the LOS.
Then they need at least a ten second pad for KFC to go through his initial gyrations, have a guard look back and reset (sometimes twice!), then KFC to finish with the same dual set of fake hand gestures.
Then the C seems to be on his own passive-aggressive schedule thinking I'll hike the ball when I damn please.

LOL, that's the other benefit of a wrist band, they can tell him to run play #28 with w/e variant the current personnel dictates, rather than describe each players duty in a monologue worthy of a self-help seminar. The other pre-snap stuff is just as infuriating, like watching Sergio Garcia twitch for 5min before hitting the ball.

I think KOC has about a 100 plays on his double-sided laminated sheet. Now, even though he only calls out 20 of them it would still require multiple players to know 100 things versus something simple for the WR like "S X-ray double burn slow ouch" which means "stand at the LOS for a zero yard pass and be prepared to get the snot knocked out of you".

No sane person takes Fields over Williams.

Chicago could have the 1st pick in the draft 2 years in a row, with their own pick, so they might not exactly know what they're doing.

There have been plenty of insane GMs, and many of them have passed over talented QBs over the years.

IF Williams has any more games like last week, Chicago might be eager to trade him to Minnesota, thinking he's likely to be a bust.

Your Williams obsession is turning dark.

Right now, its just hoping your team fails and Williams plays bad … pretty soon you’ll be fantasizing about a new pandemic or maybe nuclear holocaust to influence the Bears decision.

Yes, If Caleb goes back to playing insanely well, there is very little chance the Vikings get him.

But with just the right amount of Fields playing well, and Caleb having a few off days, the Vikings can draft Caleb.

I thought the same of Lawrence, Wilson and Fields....now look at them.
Anyone that says Mahomes in the next reply shall have to repeat or write it on a chalkboard 50 times "11 teams passed on him" and "Andy Reid sat him a year" before they say anything else.

There are a ton of QBs available next year....no reason to get too attached.....draft one in the 1st and one in the 4th.

Lawrence is panning out. The year with that dimwit college coach set him back but he's on a good path now.

That is attaching yourself too much to recent history.

To me, if the top prospect has been all misses a whole bunch in a row, the better the chances this one will be a hit.

But since I view Lawrence as a hit, that slightly reduces the chances Williams will be a hit. I just like what I have seen with the variety of throws Williams has been shown to make. I would take my chances on him.
