26CornerBlitz Posted September 17, 2018 Author Share Posted September 17, 2018 Cousins Throws for 425 Yards, 4 TDs against Packers GREEN BAY, Wisc. — That’s what the face of the franchise looks like. Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins got his first taste of the Minnesota-Green Bay rivalry on Sunday afternoon and didn’t disappoint, helping lead a wild comeback to force overtime in an eventual 29-29 tie. No, Cousins did not get a win in his first game as a Viking against Green Bay. But he showed plenty of swagger and the ability to deliver in the clutch against his new team’s biggest rival. “Kirk always steps up to the plate. You see that and you want that,” said Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs. “He commands the huddle, he shows what he can do each and every week. “I’m happy that my quarterback had a good day,” Diggs added. “He keeps working, and that’s the type of guy Kirk is.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back when Mannning threw 55tds in a season, the Jags were +28 at Denver. The jags kept it within 28 points?

Peter Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Given the point spread against the Vikings, Vegas really looks at the Bills as one of those Little Sister of the Poor teams that big time college programs play at the beginning of the college football season. It is truly embarrassing what McBeane have done to this team in such a short period of time. Wow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I wanted Kirk Cousins going back to the 2012 Draft. But we passed on all the QB's in that draft because Fitz. Dude is gonna light us up next week. Maybe the defense shows up at the end of the first quarter this time (never in Bmore, 2nd half today, 1st quarter instead of the beginning of the game next week; baby steps, maybe beginning of the game in Green Bay...). I'd still take the purnts, 16.5 is huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
