swede700 Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Quote Quarterback is the most important position in football, so there’s no better position to focus on when it comes to offseason rankings. 9. KIRK COUSINS, MINNESOTA VIKINGS Cousins is probably at the top of the second tier of quarterbacks — those who you can win with but are unlikely to transform a team into a contender simply by their presence. Cousins has earned a PFF passing grade of at least 77.7 every season in Minnesota. He is an exceptionally accurate passer with plenty of big plays in his arsenal who maybe lacks that transcendent, intangible talent that every team chases at the position. https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-quarterback-rankings-all-32-starters-2023-nfl-season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 I’d say that’s a very accurate portrayal. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, there is significant space between number 1 and number 2 in my thinking. But heaven help the NFC if Dallas, LA or New Orleans gets to the Super Bowl...and, if I am truthful, the Vikings probably belong on the list of teams who would have trouble against the AFC's best teams.

There probably wouldn't be a team in the NFC, Philadelphia included, that wouldn't have trouble against the best AFC team. Philadelphia is probably the only one that would be consistently competitive against them, but I'm going to take KC, Cincinnati and Buffalo 99 times out of 100 vs any NFC team. With the strongest AFC teams being those 3 and some of the better teams in the NFC being SF and Philadelphia, I get this feeling that we're back in the late 80s-early 90s again. 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteelKing728 Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 He's certainly a top 15 QB. I'd definitely take Rodgers, Allen, Burrow, Lawrence, Mahomes, Herbert and Hurts over him. You can make an argument for Tua, Jackson, Watson, Goff and Carr over him I think, but that might just be a lateral move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its often said that you "need a top 15 QB" to even have a shot at winning the Superbowl. For the most part, that's held up, with a few exceptions. I'm a Cousins fan. At almost 35, I think he has a good 3 years left in him. I don't see him being the type wanting to play in his 40s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 No logical human would take Daniel Jones over Cousins. And the idea that Stafford and Watson are higher than Cousins is laughable at this point. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't want to be too effusive with my praise. Lol Now, when Pittsburgh won it in 2005, NY Giants won it in 2007, Baltimore in 2012, Seattle in 2013 and Philly in 2017, how many people were calling Roethlisberger, Eli, Flacco, Wilson or Foles a top 15 QB at that time? My guess is not that many. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
