Is this the start of the Hall era? It could be.
Yes, I do think the Vikings bring back Cousins and no I don’t think Hall is a franchise QB. HOWEVER, I think Hall's got a chance. He has a few things going for him.
Yes, I do think the Vikings bring back Cousins and no I don’t think Hall is a franchise QB. HOWEVER, I think Hall's got a chance. He has a few things going for him.
- He’s older. Almost 26, he’s two years older than Brock Purdy
- In interviews (and reportedly in the huddle), he exhibits extraordinary poise, leadership and clear thinking. Doesn’t mean he can play football, but you can’t be an NFL QB without them.
- Arm and accuracy. Neither can be learned or developed. You either have them or you don't and Hall does.
- It takes a while for young QBs to trust their receivers enough to throw 50/50 balls. Hall is going to be so uptight about turning the ball over, I would be surprised if he does this much. But we'll see.
- Consistency. We’ve seen him do some good things here and there. And he’ll do good things today in Atlanta. But will he do enough good things in a row to piece together a drive or two or three? That’s my biggest question.
