Wait a minute.....didn't the Viking's crackerjack front office solve the QB dilemna LAST offseason with Kirky and future Pro Bowler Sloter?
I seem to recall ENDLESS posts on this board regaling fans on the proven virtues of Kissin' Cousins and the soon-to-be-proven talents of Sloter, the QB for whom they bought/outbid everyone else in the league, further proving their superiority in identifying NFL QB "talent". LMAO!
Sorry, but after witnessing this "braintrust" piss away 3 1st round draft picks (and 5 draft picks total) between April 2011 and September 2016 on 3 QB's (none of whom were on the roster in 2018, btw), followed by a ridiculous $84 million contract on a QB that has major problems beating GOOD teams, as well as winning in Primetime, and who apparently gets a "mulligan" for 33% of his GUARANTEED contract, I'm afraid I can't muster any excitement for this same group of geniuses' day 3 draft selection of a QB from East Southwest Arkansas Polytechnic.
Call me cynical or a poor fan, but I'm going to have to actually SEE results before I can give praise. Radical concept, huh? Wanting to see an organization's ACTUAL RESULTS before applauding them, instead of giving kudos for what they "try" to do, or what they "say" they will do? Not sure why that outlook is so despised by so many Vikings fans....it seems a common place approach in just about every other facet of life on planet Earth. Results DO matter more than intentions, just for clarification. Always has, always will.
I've heard the same BS from Winter Park, now Eagan, EVERY offseason.
NEWSFLASH to Mikey and Rickey: We don't give a shit who you sign, cut, draft, resign, trade or trade for.....just WIN IN THE PLAYOFFS. Your combined 2 playoff wins (1 a miracle at home, both with mercenary QB's) sucks donkey balls. We Vikings fans will judge you in January/February 2020. Either put up, or STFU and take your act elsewhere.
