Let him go, like they should have after the first 3-yr contract At the time, extending Cousins was the right decision. With Kirk, the Vikings got to see what we have in JJ and he was a safe QB for O'Connell in his first couple of seasons as HC. I'm okay with that decision...but, it's time to move forward and see what O'Connell is made of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mistake was failing to properly address his successor following the extension. The Vikings had a prime opportunity in 2021. The Vikings are in a similar situation again, and it looks like they’re going to take a swing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be tough not take a step back when Kirk leaves, but we also don't seem to be accomplishing anything meaningful with him here.

Atlanta seems logical although I could see LV make a move for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vikings would have offered a much better situation to a young QB. The outcome could have been very different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not that the 2021 QBs were historically bad, it's that the teams that drafted them, except Jax...maybe, did a historically AWFUL job of developing them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
