All the Kirk worshippers might need to take the week off

If all we talk about this week is Cousins, I'll take the week off.

Dobbs is our new Keenum. Let's ride this weaker part of the schedule and catch DET.

The Keenum scrappiness thing crossed my mind too.

Hopefully Akers is back soon ... Mattison drives me crazy.

Its only one game but holy cow Dobbs showed some mettle rising from the ashes. (the safety and turnovers looked really bad)

Big turn in the game was the recovery by Mettellus. 4th guy to the ball

Was that a recovery or a steal underneath the pile?

I have rollout by Ludacris in my mind. Great job team.

Half our offense was out hurt and we put up 31 including an efficient 2min hurry up game winning TD drive. Another insane season.

Didn’t sound like Jefferson was to sure he’d be ready when eligible.

Well we are 4-0 without him

Exactly why I'm not in a rush to give him 35 million a year. I know that's the market value but that's a ton of cap.

I agree.

But if he’s not back next week he’s a pussy.

Dobbs, hall, cousins, - it doesn’t really matter. The roster is nearly set everywhere but qb. Take one in round 1 2024 and see what happens.

Need a DLineman. Was hoping we would find something at trade deadline. Maybe just give Roy more snaps.

I should have used a different word than nearly. But we are close. D line and qb can be addressed by 2024 or even 2025.

_____________________________

I wouldn't give ANY qb $30-50+ mil unless that QB had won me a Super Bowl. Did you win a Super Bowl on your rookie deal? Yes? Great! Here's your hugenormous contract. F it let's just run victory laps and love life. No? Good luck. Next!

I saw the Dobbs speed on youtube but he really kicked it down today with guys closing in on him.

You have give Chandler a chance. Mattison needs holes like Emmitt Smith had in his hay day.

Same. I thought “not really his fault getting thrown in cold and barely knowing most of the playbook” but, wow, did he settle in. He had to run a 2 minute offense, in a hostile environment, and he delivered 😳

Lots of small guys have played in the league. Tyreek Hill isn't always missing time. Some guys are more injury prone than others. The specimen of Deebo doesn't stop him from always being shelved. I still say he reminds me of AC who was tough!!

Exactly and just bc he is "smaller" than many has nothing to do with being injury prone -

I guess we have a chance to find out if we drafted a Brock Purdy or Tom Brady this year a little earlier than expected. Good luck Rook!

Go Vikes

Or traded for him last week.

With Tyreke Hill you are mixing up small with frail. Hill is strong.

AC was never known for being tough. He mostly avoided big collisions, and also had a knack for relaxing right before the hit. Smooth as silk.

I saw AC get drilled over the middle a lot. Always seemed to jump right up. He was super smooth!

I thought Addison was hurt more in college as well, but it was really just a single ankle injury that cost him a couple games. I guess I just assumed Kwesi only drafted injury-prone guys. That's my bad.
