How can he tear an Achilles on a grass field? That can’t be possible

Shhhh don't say that, we can only complain about the turf!

Leaning towards an easy Falcons win. Waiting for a line

Cousins Has A No Trade Clause And Said He Wasn't Going To Approve A Trade . He Wanted To Finish The Season With The Vikings And Could Be A Free Agent For Next Season.

Carson Wentz anybody?

 

[brendanjack]

Kapernick would be a good fit in that backwards ass state

Carson Wentz anybody?

I'd take him

Enfuego should have started a thread about Mac Jones destroying a franchise

You don't think Mac could pull a Cason Wentz and get us an 11-2 record leading to a Super Bowl win, Willy?

I was at the game yesterday.

That whole offense didnt scare me 1 iota. Only time i was a little nervous was when the Pats trimmed it to 7 in the 4q and knew that Bill B was on the sideline. And i wasnt even that nervous.

Plenty of good QB's coming into the 2024 draft

For now I'm going to enjoy beating the pats after 20 years of misery with this team

Haha, I'm scared every time he drops back to pass. He's just as likely to throw a pick 6 as he is a TD. Especially if there's pressure, he has to be the worst QB in the league with even a shred of pressure

I;m not expecting any sympathy. Even my Jets fans buddies are beginning to talk shit. Truth is, they have played a murderous schedule to date and it's really hard for them to upset anyone

They're going to win a lot more games in the second half than they did to date, but despite of Mac Jones and not because of him. I expect them to land at 7, maybe a longshot for 8. Then again, I'm that eternal optimist

Just got of the phone with one of my buddies. I thought I was talking to you, Willy. haha He hates Mac. Thinks Belli will stick with him for the season and that will be the last we'll see of Mac Jones in a Patriot uniform.

Hearing that there are several good QB prospects in college.

Who are our college experts around here. After the kid from USC who should the Pats want?

I don't know what to think

Suck for Luck redux? But I hate losing

The #Rams will start Carson Wentz at QB Sunday against the #49ers, sources say. Sean McVay gives Matthew Stafford a breather before the postseason while Wentz gets his first start in just over a calendar year.

He should be well rested... LoL

Vinovich's crew has been assigned to 15 games this season, including one Colts game in Week 9 during their game against the Carolina Panthers. According to Pro Football Reference, 53.14% of the penalties thrown by Vinovich's crew have been on the home team, and the visiting team has won 60% of those games. With the Colts set to be the home team this week, those are less-than-ideal statistics.

QB Kirk Cousins leaving Vikings for 4-year deal with Falcons.​

Minnesota Vikings free agent quarterback Kirk Cousins has agreed to a four-year contract with the Atlanta Falcons, agent Mike McCartney announced.
Cousins, 35, was having one of his best seasons in 2023 and had been one of the NFL's most durable quarterbacks before tearing his right Achilles tendon in Week 8 at Lambeau Field. At the time, he was tied for the NFL lead in passing touchdowns (18) and ranked second in passing yards (2,331).
Before the injury, he had started 136 of a possible 138 games since ascending to QB1 with the Washington Commanders in 2015. One of those two missed starts occurred when the Vikings were resting their starters for the playoffs in 2019, and the other came after a positive COVID-19 test in 2021.
Cousins spent three seasons as Washington's full-time starter but never found common ground on a long-term extension. He played his final two seasons with the team on the franchise tag, setting himself up to enter the free agent market in 2018 at age 30 -- a rare entrance of a high-level quarterback available to every NFL team in the prime of his career.
The Vikings, one year removed from backup Case Keenum taking them to the 2017 NFC Championship Game, pounced quickly, hoping he could lift the team into the Super Bowl. They met his demand for a fully guaranteed three-year contract worth $84 million and since had signed him to extensions in 2020 and 2022 to provide short-term salary cap relief.
The Vikings did not, however, substantively improve their pursuit of the Super Bowl during that time. They had a 50-37-1 regular season record with one NFC North title and were 1-2 in two playoff games.
As a result, during negotiations in the spring of 2023, general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah decided against extending the guaranteed portion of Cousins' contract beyond the 2024 season. Instead, the sides agreed to an adjustment that allowed the Vikings to lower his salary cap number and guaranteed Cousins a path to free agency in 2024 without the Vikings having use of the franchise tag.
The four-time Pro Bowl selection ranks fifth among active quarterbacks -- and 24th all-time -- with 39,471 passing yards in 12 NFL seasons. Cousins' 270 touchdowns rank 20th all-time, and he has 110 interceptions. He also has rushed for 958 yards and another 19 scores.
