Cincinnati Bengals
Cleveland Browns (not yet anyway they think a ton of Watson or they wouldn't have paid such a huge price for him)
Dallas Cowboys
Indianapolis Colts (maybe to start and mentor Richardon, but really doubt it, and definitely not long term)
JAcksonville
Kansas City
Los Angeles Chargers
Miami Dolphins
New Orleans Saints
New York Jets (when rogers was healthy anyway)
Eagles

that is 14 teams right there . . . others are close like Garoppolo and Fields (Bears believe in him, i don't)

Well,

Kirk > Carr, Jimmy g so deduct those you're at about 12 leaving 20 some odd in one way or the other... more and half of those prolly take kirk over the incumbent. The rookies are an exception. If those teams may have had kirk they may not draft those rookies.

All a what if game and a useless one at that. To each their own opinions.

Fuck the eagles. Biggest frauds ever and hurts is McNabb 2.0 except McNabb was a better qb.

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.

Personally, I'd put Cousins in the same group as the likes of Herbert, Stafford etc.

I think it's funny when people say something like: "To win a SB he'd need a complete team around him...". My guess is that there aren't a lot of quarterbacks who have won a Super Bowl by themselves.

I mean he's not a difference maker on his own. Say you swapped him for Mahomes in his 2 SB runs. There are a number of times Mahomes ability overcame shortcomings of his team, notably protection and some unbelievable throws. Cousins would have lost key games Mahomes won, despite great numbers, because he couldn't have overcome those shortcomings. Likely that means playoffs missed or losses in the playoffs.

If he were the Ravens QB for the 2000 or 2012 seasons, probably the same outcome. And he definitely better than Dilfer or Flacco in their prime.

To win a SB he needs to not be required to do something special.

[Chief X_Phackter]

I remember Chad Henne coming in for Mahomes - and KC probably wouldn't have won that game and gone on to the SB if it weren't for the plays he made - in conjunction with the rest of the team around him.

K Cousins would be a fine SB QB. It's just not easy to get there. You need a great team in all three phases and sometimes a little luck.

Point being is circumstances of rookies contracts etc aside, nearly half the teams in the league would take em

I said 4-6 not Meks. With a bit deeper thought about it, I'd say there are more like 10 that would never take him over their current starters. There are a few more that were he on the roster already he would likely be starter while their young QB learnt (Colts, Texans, us etc.).

He's crazy good. Just so fast and instinctive. Really sucks he's on Dallas. Best defensive player in league currently.

[JGisLordOfTheRings]

Fuck the Cowboys and Giants. That is all.
