If you don’t see a problem with your franchise QB showing a complete lack of awareness, responsibility, leadership, empathy, or commitment to the team, I don’t really know what to say. Mond not getting vaccinated and getting COVID is also pure idiocy, but he has nowhere near the responsibility that Cousins does. Not even comparable situations. Wouldn't waste your time tbh.

He doesn't have Covid. Not his fault another player got infected unless you want him to babysit Mond outside of football. If he had the vaccine he wouldn’t have to isolate and could have practiced with the team today. He chose to give himself and the team a competitive disadvantage. Awesome leadership. And yes, without the vaccine he has a much, much higher change of getting sick, missing time, and getting others sick. Miss me with that ridiculous nonsense. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're pissing on a guy who started 16 times last season for the 5th ranked offense in the NFL when covid was at its worst over a training camp practice! A practice he's being forced out of for something another player did. Cousins knows this offense better than any player on offense. Missing a training camp practice isn't going to hurt our offense.

Signing Fitz wouldn’t change that. He’s a slot only player. And has been for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcticNorseman Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 I'm not sure what to think about the whole QB COVID thing. Mond tested positive . . . and it's been confirmed? Not a false positive? Cousins' personal beliefs are similar to millions of Americans and I wish the media and politicians would quit the fear mongering. Yes, the vaccine seems to be viable and safe, so get it. In Cousins' case, because he's not vaccinated and was in the room with Mond, he's guilty . . . hopefully to be proven innocent soon. Maybe he should be like a knucklehead I saw in a store up here . . . painter's filtered mask, under welding helmet with goggles under that. Knowing how off the walls some are up here, all ya can do is look . . . don't talk . . . the tinfoil rings strong with those types, lol. The only silver lining is the timing of this occurrence . . . it's early, so learn from it and move forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Bisi Johnson having what looks like a serious injury, Osborn may well make the team, even if DeDe is the punt returner, and the rookie running back is the kickoff return man, and Westbrook and despite Smith-Marsette are ahead of him as the 3rd and 4th WR. I missed it. When did Johnson get hurt and what kind of injury is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of my excitement for the season has been killed by our dumb QBs. Kirk and Zim are gonna be fired after this season because the QBs can't be bothered to get vaccinated.

CriminalMind Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 If Vikings are smart they would separate the QBs (if that is remotely possible throughout the season). Has it been confirmed that Mond is not vaccinated either? (I'm leaving out if he should or shouldn't) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
