Looking at contracts comparing Cousins to Stafford to Garoppolo, I'm starting to wonder if Cousins took a notable pay cut to be a Viking. Considering at one point this offseason, estimates of 30mil+ per year was speculated, just from the demand for good QBs.

I expected it to be 3 years 90 mil, so my reasoning for ending up with 84 mil is that he took a pay cut so the Vikings can still make moves. Could he have gotten 30 mil? Sure, prob from the Jets. But it stands to reason he can earn more in the future by playing good with the Vikings for the next 3 years.

Of course he could have gotten more if he played the Jets against the Vikings. He clearly wanted to get to Minnesota.

We're literally never moving on from Kirk Cousins.

I'm about to start a Shane Matthews thread.

Fuck Kirk and close this thread. Shit no other non Skins player gets their own thread.

It's time to turn the page on Cousins. But I'll say this. He got his guaranteed $. Now the pressure is really on to perform. The bar is NFC Championship for the Vikings. We'll see if Cousins is up for that challenge, and if he'll be able to handle things if he starts slowly.

i watched the entire conference. Yes Kirk could have said more praise to his old team, but people have to remember that he was doing his first press conference as a Viking, so anyone expecting him to go on for a few minutes about how great we (The redskins) are, that's just silly. I do think he was classy with his goodbye tweet about his time in Washington, and thanked the organization.

I thought most of Cousins' answers were handled very well, and he was very politically correct.

One thing i took away that I find noteworthy; Kirk was asked directly to describe what it was like "getting here" (In Minnesota), and he said directly; "It's been a 2 1/2 year process for my agent and I". Whether he means it took 2 1/2 years for him to sign his first LTD as a starter, or if he meant it too 2 1/2 years to get out of Washington, we may never know.

I believe that it was the latter, i think this confirms the theory that some had here that he wanted out following the 2015 season when he was lowballed initially...
