I think Cousins is above average and with our team he would do fine IMO. On paper stats and W/L's wise he is better than Carr in reality but by my eye test Carr is slightly better. The thing about Stafford was, he was on crappy teams for most of his career and still put up huge numbers. He had CJ for a while but that organization is terrible. Carr for the most part has been on bad teams as well. Minnesota has been a good all-around team for years, this season surprised me that they didn't make the playoffs.

Their defense ranked 29th I think.

 

And Cousins played for the Football Team.

 

Carr's contract is better though. He definitely has that advantage over Cousins.

 

 

I'm really just keeping it in peoples mind that even if we don't get Wentz(which I don't really want) there is still multiple options potentially available.

Don't know if you've seen my breakdown of Stafford vs Cousins? I posted here in this thread I think. Cousins is better in just about every QB statistical category.

I mentioned that on the Vikings site. I asked why is it that Stafford is perceived as being so much better. One fan wrote "Stafford has 3 times the number of game-winning drives "

Could be a fair argument. I will add this though.

 

KC - 51-51-2(so much for being a loser)

MS - 74-90-1

 

 

KC - 104 games

MS - 165 games

 

KC - 11 4th qtr comebacks

MS - 31 4th qtr comebacks

 

 

Stafford has started 61 more games.

 

 

I will say though a lot goes into that. Cousins played on better teams so probably not trailing as much.

 

I also believe that Cousins had the best 4th qtr qb rating last year. He at least did up to week 16 or 17, not sure where he finished.?

Oh no doubt, Cousins even played well in Washington. I see your point. I can't see Minnesota trading Cousins though.

Repost:

 

In just about every statical category Cousins was better than Stafford. So if so many wanted Stafford they should be jumping at the chance to get Cousins.

 

Stats comparisons:(career stats)

W/L record:

KC - 51-51-2(so much for being a loser)

MS - 74-90-1

 

Comp%:

KC - 67%

MS - 62.6%

 

TD/INT ratio:

KC - 190/84 - 2.26/1

MS - 282/144 - 1.96/1

 

QB rating:

KC - 97.9

MS - 89.9

 

INT rate:

KC - 2.3%

MS - 2.3%

 

Pro Bowls:(doesn't mean much)

KC - 2

MS - 1

 

Sack%:

KC - 5.5%

MS - 5.8%

 

TD%:

KC - 5.2%

MS - 4.5%

 

YPA:

KC - 7.7

MS - 7.7

 

YPG: (finally something he is better at)

KC - 260.3

MS - 273.4

 

 

So you(not nflfan) tell me, if everyone was so pumped about Stafford, why is Cousins not a good option?

 

I wouldn't mind Cousins.

To me it is Stafford's mobility where he has an edge. I thought in 2019 Cousins showed up big against the Saints in the playoffs.

so much crap out there it’s hard to tell if anything is real

Lemme get this straight.....We give up a replaceable ILB, and aging TE, next years 2nd and move down 16 slots from 21 to 37 to get a starting QB?

 

I think this is a good deal.

 

And the price seems to be getting cheaper.

 

(We could probably still get an LT like Eichenberg at 37)

Getting 37 back is HUGE

Is this guy half way reputable? Not a bad deal after thinking about it.

2023 2nd not even 2022 2nd.

 

 

Drop down is valued at last pick of 2nd round.

 

2nd rounder 2 years away is devalued at least a full round. Probably more like late 3rd.
