2012: CP/AD + Good D
2019: KC/DC + Good D

God, I hope not. I really want a team that has legit shot post-season  :#

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

I honestly don’t even consider past teams.  What’s the point?

Cousins is way beyond Ponder.  Cousins has started for years in the league, Ponder couldn't quite get out of his own way.

Being better than Ponder isn't saying much.

I don't either. We're Viking's fans: shit is going to hit the fan at some point. It has in every season since their inception. 

And Minnesota is not going to beat the Bears on the road this Sunday. Will not happen.

Interesting...

Cousins is better than Ponder. Way better. No one would argue that Cook is better than Peterson, but Cook in a wide zone just might be just as good. Plus, Thielen and Diggs are considerably better than Harvin and, um, Michael freaking Jenkins. Hunter, Joseph, Kendricks, Waynes, Harry19 and Harris better than Robison, Guion, Brinkley, Cook, Harry12 and Sanford. 2012 gets the nod only at 3T (KWill) and LDE (Allen).

I have heard the comparison to Ponder due to freezing under pressure. I am not quite to that point.

I can definitely understand that line of thinking...we are the only team with more rushing yards than passing yards...Cousins for all his faults isn't as bad Ponder...

I will take this years team, the coaching staff (specifically the offensive brain trust), and Cook.
