You're right. But I love Garcon, DJax, not so much. I'd still take DJax tho.

I'd gladly take Thomas or Jax.

Football trades always seem awkward, because they aren't as common, but I'd give a 3rd for Thomas, a 4th for DJax, and a 5th for Garcon would need to be a 5th or later (he can't push the envelope like the other 2). If we didn't have extra picks, I'd probably only want Thomas.

I hope Goff and McVay stay together for next 10 years. Gonna be fun to watch. I was beyond wrong on McVay. Hell of a coach.

Cousins continually having good stats but his team loses.

And he lost another big game on SNF, I like Kirk but he just can't win those games

But ... KC didn't "lose" it. Diggs stopped on a route leading to an interception, Thielen uncharacteristically fumbled, there was zero run game, and Minn's porous offensive line racked up 4 sacks. Despite all that KC racked up 2 TD's and over 300 yards in passing. It's a team game!

Just kidding ... it was classic KC. All of the above statements are true and he sure looks pretty passing the ball to those studly receivers. His team still loses.

Have a Minnesota fan in the office who asked my opinion of him when he was acquired. I said "He will put up good numbers and look the part. He will, however, make the occasional bonehead play, commit turnovers at crucial times, and, at the end of the day, he and the team just won't find a way to win the critical games - particularly when they are under the lights."

His comment to me this morning was "After watching him for eight games, your assessment of him was pretty dead on."

I think it boils down to the type and timing of his mistakes. I used to look at the box scores when he was here and think "How did we lose that game?" or "How did we only score 17 points?"

If Kirk gives up a strip sack it isn't trying to buy time to throw into the end zone from the opponent 45 on the last play of the half. His will come when his team needs 5 more yards to try a game winning field goal.

If Kirk throws an interception it isn't on 3rd & 15 on a deep route that ends up as good as a punt, his turn into momentum killers or changers that either cost his team points or give them to the opponents.

Jameis Winston has played 48 games in his NFL career. He’s thrown 50 interceptions and fumbled 21 times. 48 games... 71 turnovers.

Another QB bust.

I mean, the Saints blew us out and made us look much, much worse in the process so idk...

I am surprised to see another article about Cousins though. It seems this board has a unique fascination with the QB's of past. RGIII left and we all talked about him for the following couple years. Now it seems Cousins has taken up that mantle and is still thoroughly dissected..

I wonder how long we're gonna have to hear about A. Smith after his departure...
