Re: Around the League Week 2
 

[QUOTE=Ruhskins;1345350]Why did the Vikes get rid of Dalvin Cooks? Alexander Mattison has like 10 yds and he had like 34 yds last week. They have no running game.

And yeah, Hurts has very pedestrian numbers.[/QUOTE]


Latest fad is devaluing running backs. The whole we can plug any back in and get the job done is so fucking stupid.

[quote=punch it in;1345353]Terrible let go by the Vikings. Still don’t know why they let him go.
Also Ruh did you ever look at it like Jefferson has Cousins? Only quarterback he has ever had. Maybe he isn’t the best WR in football without him?
I just don’t get the hate for the man. He is a really good quarterback who has played for really bad teams and still manages to rack up crazy numbers. If he was on a good team he would be on his way to the Hall. Only thing holding him back is wins and losses. Isn’t his fault he is on shit teams.[/quote]

I think you're exaggerating a bit about Cousins being on shit teams. When he was here playing with us, he had a shit team. He's had some good teams in Minnesota.

Throughout his time in Minnesota (Diggs, Thielin, Kyle Rudolph, Dalvin Cooks, Justin Jefferson, and Hockesen).

I do agree that over the past couple of years the Vikings have made questionable personnel decisions, have let their defense decline, and getting rid of Cooks seems to have come to bite them in the ass.

We see another good example in D. Swift. I was surprised when Detroit let him go. They got lucky and got Gibbs. But it is obvious he still good, he's running hard out there for the Iggles.

Huge stop here. Come on!

Re: Around the League Week 2
 

Well Ruh you better put on your Cousins jersey cus he needs to get two TD’s. Lol. I fuckin hate Philly.

Re: Around the League Week 2
 

Jesus 17. Catch that! The Eagles should be 0-2 but BB opted not to kick a chip shot fg and the Vikings are killing themselves.

Re: Around the League Week 2
 

Jalen Hurts looks great. Against a 3 man rush. He is so along for the ride. Once again the Vikings D shits the bed. God I hate the Eagles.

Re: Around the League Week 2
 

We all knew the Eagles would be good especially on O.. They are LOADED. Going to be hard to beat them this yr for any team

They don’t look as good ad last year, lost some players to FA and we beat them in Philly with a lesser team than this year.They are beatable

People that don't think Kirk is good QB just don't like him for personal reasons. Watch the Amazon Prime and tell me that Kirk is not only a good QB, but he's tough as nails.

Vikes can't run the ball and can't stop the run. That's bad news for any team. It's early but the Eagles certainly look beatable. If Jefferson does not fumble that ball at the end of the half it's a totally different game.

Re: Around the League Week 2
 

Get Up this morning proposed Minny trading Cousins to the Jets lol. You never know but don't see that happening unless they really have no faith in their team this year. Also noticed Brown and Hurts getting into it. Brown was ticked and left without speaking to the press. Pretty strong reaction after a nice home victory.

I used to like AJ Brown, he’s a diva now. One thing you won’t see with our team is WR’s bitching about not getting the ball.

Re: Around the League Week 2
 

I'm still not sold on Hurts. I know he played well last year, but at times he still doesn't look like a NFL QB. He's not doubt gotten better but if they can't run the ball his weaknesses will show up eventually.

They are a bad decision (by BB), and an inch (JJ’s almost touchdown) from being 0-2. They are good but not great.
