Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
There is a huge difference between being a team first guy and saying all the right things in the media to sound like a team first guy. The players in the locker room will be able to identify in about 5 min.
Football is arguably the most team oriented sport (rugby and hockey). The most important fundamental ingredient to having a good team is having players that are unselfishly committed to the team. If the locker room is tight, the team will win more often than not given roughly equal talent. I would argue that the actual athletic difference in the NFL is really very small. Joe Theisman, Mark Rypien, Doug Williams were no where near great QBs. Neil Olkewiczs, Doc Walker, Donny Warren, Monte Colman, Rich Milot, Mel Kaufman, and a host of others were not the greatest athletes but they were multiple champions. After reading his good by letter, I would say our incoming QB is a massive upgrade in the locker room. We are going to win more games this year. |

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
Vikings Wire/Rapoport reports two teams likely going to offer KC a fully guaranteed deal.
Report: At least 2 teams willing to give Cousins fully-guaranteed deal I'm going to take a wild guess, it will be the Vikings and Jets, 3 years 90 mil fully guaranteed, and he will sign with the Vikings because they offer the best chance to win. That about wraps it up. |

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
I am really glad this guy is gone.
According to ESPN.com's*Adam Schefter, Cousins' idea is somewhat similar to the*Tom vs. Time*documentary that New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady put together. Schefter added that along with Cousins deciding between signing with the Minnesota Vikings, Arizona Cardinals or New York Jets, the footage will show what he goes through in everyday life. "We are opening up our home to allow a behind-the-scenes look into what really transpires before the contract number scrolls across the bottom line of ESPN," Cousins said on Monday. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2...ys-tom-vs-time Both qbs from 2012 were look at me divas.

It is starting to look that way, no argument from me on that stand point.
