For the same reasons that Cousins would think that Minnesota is a great destination, so would Teddy, Keenum, Sam, etc. Their pride of being a 'Plan B' is more fan-think than actuality. Minnesota won't get skunked on all 3 if it comes to that. No way.

So what do we gain if Teddy & Sam come back....pray the 2 would last a whole season.

That scenario feels so normal and safe for a modern viking fan.

How is McCarron an upgrade over any of the ones we already have on our roster?

Not seeing the forest for the trees on this one.

Two knees that are healthy.

Right, that's the bad part. IMO, Vikes have set themselves up for a 'Cousins or Bust' scenario. Is that the right way to go? Not sure. But Teddy must have some lingering issues because the team is supposedly not putting any scenario together where Teddy is the presumptive starter. Maybe Bradford can come to Eagan long enough to sign a new contract from his skiing trip, then twist his knee getting back in his limo to the airport. That would be SO Vikings.

The only QB on the roster has never thrown a pass in a regular season game.

What if Cousins goes with Jets, Case with Denver? Are they really going to turn the team over to Bridgewater (with his 5 plays in 2 years) or Bradford and whatever his degenerative condition is?

You can't count on either anymore. I dont think we can rule out anybody if the football gods and qb's smite the Vikings this offseason.

Omfg! That's awesome. I am so putting that on a t-shirt.

I would definitely go with Bridgewater before McCarron.
