Who Wins Super Bowl LIV?

[purbeast0]

The Vikings thought they were a QB away from the Super Bowl and paid a stupid contract to bring in a QB that will never take them there. Now they are strapped for cash and won't be able to get a supporting cast to help out. If they do not win a Super Bowl next year, then the Cousins experiment will officially be a complete bust and will have set the team back significantly from before they ever got Cousins.

Would the Redskins be better with Cousins? Probably record wise, because 3 wins is utter shit. Financially they would be completely screwed though. Cousins is NOT worth the money that the Vikings paid him. Had the Redskins got him for like $20 million or something per year, then I would have been just fine with it. I'm glad they didn't pay him that money.

And Cousins being top 6 QB in the league? Yeah I disagree. I'd put him like in the pack between 10-15. He simply folds under the spotlight. Sure he finally got a "big win" this year, but that is the outlier. I mean facts are facts and his record is what it is.

I agree. I said on Twitter that the Vikings should clean house from the top down, starting with GM Spielman and Zimmer. Was utter idiocy to pay the kind of guaranteed contract they did to Cousins, considering his record against winning teams and in Big Games. I am not sure he has the best rapport with his teammates either.

I lay his contract primarily on Spielman, but would assume Zimmer had input as well. They both have had several years to put together a winner, and have brought in some talent, but bottom line is they are only a slightly better than average team, which probably played over it head in 2017 when everyone thought they were top echelon.

So basically 3 years lost after next year before they can move on from Cousins.

Wasn't Garrapalo a decent qb before his bonehead injury? I thought I remember him lighting it up. What happened to him? Or am I delusional?

He's had flashes of brilliance this year. Hopefully with some work in the offseason we get to see more of it.
