They really wanted Landry and Moncrief. They were interested in Robinson. Now you end up overpaying for others. The Ravens wanted to fix their WR corps and it still looks pretty average to me.

Cheesehawk Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 I'm not excited about the Cousins signing. Sure, it hampers what they will be able to do with their own guys over the next couple of seasons but Cousins is the truth. The Vikings have a QB.

If they can win 13 with Case Keenum - I dont see how Cousins is gonna drop that number down to 9 - with essentially the same team. Are they playing a monster schedule this year versus last? Even still. Cousins will do them just fine IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasquatch Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 As a Viking hater, I’d love nothing more than to dismiss this signing as foolish. While I think Cousins and Keenum are somewhat similar, I do think this signing makes Minny a very formidable threat again this year. Will definitely keep the folks at 1265 on their toes - no time for complacency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Case Keenum was better than Kirk Cousins last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was. Case probably had a career year - which makes sense. I just dont think Cousins is too steep a drop off and when he gets to play with the toys that made for Case's career year........well, we'll see what happens.

If they don't get kicked in the mouth, they'll be right back in the Super Bowl hunt. People forget the Vikings started this season 2-2. Win over the Saints when the Saints defense still sucked. Ugly loss against the Steelers. Win against the Buccaneers when the Buccaneers realized they weren't ****. Loss to the Lions before the Lions turned to ****. Then what happens? They get the Bears, win by 3. They knock Rodgers out of the game and beat Hundley. Offense-less Ravens. Winless Browns. Failing Redskins. Inexperienced Rams. Lions. They get kicked in the mouth again against the Panthers, but it's okay because the Bengals and then Hundley to the rescue. If the Vikings get two good teams in a row next year to kick them in the mouth, they will fall apart. You can take that as a Horizon guarantee. They were cruising against the Eagles with an EASY TD to start the game. It was 7-0, and then? Keenum threw a pick six. The offense got a kick in the mouth. They unravled faster than a roll of toilet paper after a six course meal of Taco Bell washed down by laxatives. In 2016 they had an esay first 6 games except for the Packers, but no team was beating the Vikings in that atmosphere to open up that stadium. We still lost by only 3. Philadelphia kicks them in the mouth. Surprise upset against the Bears. Lions with a walkoff touchdown to win in overtime. Redskins beat them. They win three more games that year. The Vikings are a momentum team that has not, does not and will not handle adversity well. They just signed a QB who has not, does not and will not handle adversity well. The 2018 Vikings could go 15-1 heading into the playoffs, or they could go 6-10 and wonder what the hell happened. This is one area where McCarthy is an underrated coach. There were years we had no business getting to the playoffs even with Rodgers, and yet our team fought, and they fought hard. Even this year with Hundley.
