And they've had virtually no running game either. Dalvin's been out or banged up all year.. hasn't put up ANY numbers. And he's not worth his contract no.. but it's silly to knock him by comparing his stats to Case Keenum's last year. Keenum had a damn good year, and maybe it was a flash in the pan. Expecting ANY quarterback to replicate that season every darn year is expecting Peyton Manning consistency. Hard to judge Cousins if he has to constantly meet another quarterbacks career best season success as Cousin's lowest bar he's allowed to go. Cousins has lived up to his end of the bargain, he has been a mid-level to upper mid-level QB (I think its inarguable that he has been at least about average) and despite the various regressions of the team they still are in line for a wildcard birth (Two games left they are playing better recently and their destiny is in their own hands to make the playoffs.) But I do think that the Vikings overestimated their offensive line (Very puzzling they spent their first round pick on the defense when a stud guard like Will Hernandez was on the board) and seeming forgot that Keenum masked a lot of the o-lines issues with his mobility. Cousins is a pocket passer who has some mobility but mostly works within the pocket. But 2018 was the year that the Cousins win now move was supposed to pay off. In 2019 they can keep a lot of the team together but they might lose some defensive talent and they don't have the cap space to add talent. Its clear that the Vikings are going to have to spend their draft picks building the O-line and try and hope they can keep Barr on defense. Maybe if you have better protection for Cousins and better run blocking for Cook (Who has come on strong to end the season) and Murrary the offense becomes a top 5 unit. Then if you keep a good defense together it can seemingly work without needing to have elite components everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Glad the Bills didn't bother with that "sweepstakes." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
