Well, as Geoff would say....

What else is he supposed to say in January?

I hear you but it is going to start all the stories and speculation now

Nothing new to see here. Same company line as last offseason.

Yeah that's been the statement for like a year now.

The key is a contract that works for Minnesota. I definitely get the vibe the organization will move on if he isn't reasonable.

Yah, thats the big difference between this year and last...If he does move on, Vikings will definitely be in the QB mkt early- and every potential trading partner will know it too. 

You take KC and DH off this roster? You are looking at 5-7 wins - tops.

Something interesting in the full quote. He was obviously asked if he wanted Cousins back. His response sounds a little defensive to me. 

"Yeah. I think I've been pretty consistent with that," Adofo-Mensah said. "Kirk the player is somebody that, as we saw what he does to this team, I thought we were playing really good football before he got injured, and it's the most important position in sports. Now ultimately it always comes down to can you find an agreement that works for both sides and all those things, but as a player, it's certainly my intention to have him back here."

thats assuming you dont add talent in their absence,  which of course they will attempt to do.   and really, whats the difference in 5-7 wins vs 9-10 wins and one and done playoff game, except a few wins that you will not likely remember in 18 months, and a 10 to 15 drop in draft picks the following spring?

probably getting tired of the Minny media asking the same question over and over, only changing the wording a little.
