Cousins haters: 'He's got all the time in the world and still sucks!' Cousins lovers: 'There's a guy that gets rid of the ball when he can feel a pass rush, great pocket awareness'

Welcome to the era of fake sports news. 


Well I don’t agree w/ either of those takes, welcome to my take, nothing fake about it—It’s time for changes, period.

Meanwhile Minnesota is tied for the most QB hurries allowed with 61. New England has allowed 19 QB hurries while Jones is playing. Jones has been hit 19 times Cousins 49. Gonna go out on a limb and say Cousins would gladly agree to take a whopping 6 more sacks if it meant he wasn't playing behind a line that was worst in QB hurries and third worst in QB hits.

Solid strawman.  Cherry pick one single game, meanwhile I'm talking an entire season's worth of data. But hey thanks for furthering the point on how dominate New England's defense is comparatively. 

Lol, can you imagine a scenario this year where Minnesota's defense was good enough that the team would have won on 3 passing attempts by Cousins?

Fyi,Cousins only has 62 more attempts.  No where near enough to account for the huge disparity in pressures or hits.

And who is responsible for that line? Kind of an indictment of Spielman if you ask me. He needs to go out the door with Zimmer. I watch the good teams and the Vikings don't look like them.
