Kirk still had some shit moments last night, but he also showed what can be done in this O when a QB climbs the pocket a little, he extended plays within the pocket on many of those 3rd down conversions and that was key IMO to the win.
His pick and the 2nd TD to Addison were both on him, there were a few other stinkers, but that first TD ball to Addison was a beauty. As good of a pass as you will see at any level. Perfect trajectory, perfect velocity, perfect placement. I bet I watched that one back 6 times.

So does every QB during almost every NFL game, including the winners. Have you ever watched the NFL Redzone? I'm seriously asking. Because if you did you'd really have an eye opening experience as far as what other QBs do. Shit throws, bad decisions, lucky/unlucky bounces, etc. A horrible series or two. It happens to almost every winning QB every week.
JMO, but the Kirko Hate Club (KHC from this point on) is WAY too myopic. When the microscope is as intense as some fans put it on Cousins, the same scrutiny never applies to other QBs doing the same exact thing yet are considered 'winners'.

I watch a lot of football, I have acknowledged that he had a very good game and made some really good throws, 1 was a great throw.. all I said is that he had some stinkers as well. If you want to talk about other QB, bring them up. This is about Kirk and what he is doing for my team.and. I am giving praise and scrutiny at the same time, is that now allowed, do I have to be all in on one perspective? I was impressed with his footwork last night, his ball placement amd touch on some were poor, but overall I think that was his best game of the year.

Nailed it here.
Every week from Mahomes to Herbert to Allen, Burrow, Hurts, etc. there are dozens of examples of QBs making ridiculously stupid throws, staying in the pocket too long, overthrows, underthrows, throws short of the sticks, ignoring wide open receivers, etc., etc.
Cousins is graded against perfection by many Viking fans. And he's not perfect. I think if Viking fans actually watched other games, they would soon begin to realize just how good Cousins is in comparison.

so why dont you two go start threads about the other QBs in the league and we can pick them apart if we care enough about those teams to comment. for fucks sake, I have given him credit for his play last night in every fucking thread about the game, and the couple critical comments I make are what you two decide to forcus on? If you cant give credit and criticism, maybe its not posters like me that are not seeing the whole picture, maybe its you guys focusing only on what you want to see.
what a waste of time, hey everybody, if you arent here to sing the praises of everything Vikings, lap up all the over the top narratives certain to come from a great victory like last nights, and then shit nothing but purple tinted rainbows out your ass... then your opinions just arent welcome on this board.

Oh please. Does baby need his bottle? Dude, you are one of the most negative on this board....so what, do I say, "Hey everybody, if we aren't here to rip the Vikings a new asshole, then your opinions aren't welcome on this board". You've done plenty of slamming of those that are positive, so don't give me the 'who me?' routine.
Neither one of us said the Vikings, Kirk Cousins, are perfect. Save the victim card. Long season, Minnesota could be crap this Sunday against Green Bay. But they've won 2 games in a row, so focusing on the positive seems to make a little sense, lol. At least until it doesn't.
