...how's Viking Nation doing this morning? Mood is...? The fickle nature of the free agency period brings out the bi-polar in all of us for sure.
Well, it looks like its all in for Cousins now. And I'll say this: its Minnesota's best option to maximize this team's Super Bowl window. I think the organization knew that Keenum wasn't going to wait around, so its no surprise him signing with Denver...and Case wasn't the Broncos' first choice, Cousins was. But they knew he wasn't going to sign there. I think Bridgewater is not 100%, either physically or mentally and they know this also...which is sad as he's a great kid. Doesn't mean he can't get all the way back, but it might take a bit more time. No idea what they are thinking on Bradford and/or if he's being considered as a backup plan.
I wonder if Arizona could play last-minute spoiler in the Cousins Sweepstakes. It would be just the Viking's luck. The worse kept secret in the NFL recently has been the love affair between Minnesota and Cousins. But I'm not going to worry about that until it happens and we'll see how it plays out. If Minnesota gets Cousins, I'll be happy and I'll appreciate the team's bold move to attempt to make them a force consistently with a stabilized QB situation for a guy starting his prime years with possible upside. He can be a franchise QB on this team, IMO.
