Given how vague and cantankerous Zimmer has been in the past about his QB, the definitive statement merits weight. Cousins being the Vikings' best option to make a run at returning to the playoffs also plays a significant role, as does the dead-money hit from moving on this season.

Kirk should be their guy. But again, what choice do they have? They are locked in because of his contract.

Good! Go do some damage next year

Zim, who's job was it to fix the defense last year? Its not like the defense was good the year before

Regardless, he'll get his chance. Hopefully they can do OTA workouts come May and hit training camp in late July.

Actually Vikings 2019 defense ranked 5th overall. Thats pretty good

What is he suppose to say? Even if they were actively trying to trade Kirk, he is not going to say anything and lose any kind of leverage they have or take the chance on alienating Kirk if a trade did not work out.

Exactly, a top 10 defense in 18 and 19.

Everyone that believes in Cousins is setting themselves up for disappointment. When the lights are the brightest, the competition is the toughest, the guy is scared, erratic, and 2nd place at best. He is what he is at this point, this franchise would do itself a favor by moving on for as much as they can at this point and starting a new QB search.

First qb since Bridgewater that I have heard him comment on positively. I know there are both sides. He is trying to be encouraging and not trying to play his hand. Does it mean much? Time will tell.
