    49ers - Brock Purdy - Still and Always #1

    Hey, Cyhig, appears we'll have to agree to disagree on Cousins co-owning this with KOC. I'd note that KOC didn't force the pass that ensued... I'm not yet sold on KOC, either. Seems a bit too much a player's coach. Maybe he'll get his legs, we shall see. Everything went the Vikings way last...

    49ers - Brock Purdy - Still and Always #1

    Oh, that one's definitely on KOC as well. But, how can you absolve Cousins? How many years has he been in the league? He doesn't have the sense to spike a ball in that situation? He even acknowledged afterwards that he could have done that - has license to do so... great example of what Kirk is...

    49ers - Brock Purdy - Still and Always #1

    Haven't read all posts, but, I can say as a Vikings fan that's watched all of Cousins' games here. There is no way that any sane FB person would want Cousins to lead their team... and, no way that SF would want him over what Brock has been delivering. While Cousins has a stronger arm and much...

    ***2024 Minnesota Vikings***

    I think we probably agree on a lot. Kirk brings a high floor and a low ceiling. I’m just not interested in that trade-off. Guarantees mediocrity. I’d rather take the chance on getting a young QB and developing top DL & OL. The Vikings have mortgaged their lot on Kirk and then other positions...

    ***2024 Minnesota Vikings***

    The ol' "Kirk's stats are really good, it's the D, ST, O-Line, coaching..." that are the problem. Yes, Kirk has nice stats. He has a very strong arm. He's accurate. He's smart. He's a really nice guy. Heck, I'd be happy to have him babysit my kids. But, if I want a QB to lead my team to playoff...

    ***2024 Minnesota Vikings***

    I don't get the defenders of Cousins. Ultimately, he's paid like a top QB and doesn't deliver in wins. Sure, his stats are always nice for the season, and he looks good when a play goes as designed. He has played better this year under KOC and is tough and appears to be a good guy. But, this...

    Special Teams Coordinator

    I'd love to see the hire. Would show recognition/acknowledgment of the reality that ST is a huge portion of the game. Has been a glaring weakness the entire tenure. Hire an ST coach and a RB or WR coach and have OC do the other. On D, have Heacock figure out how to take on a position too or have...

    ***Official 2021 Vikings***

    Glad at least one of you noted that the technicality of Cousins being franchised didn't change my overall point re: the Redskins not wanting to commit the future to him. Geesh. I've not suggested that he is the lone reason the Vikings underperformed. Much can be said about the D - was glad to...

    ***Official 2021 Vikings***

    Cousins also played his first ~four years for the Redskins, who had a QB guru(?), Jay Gruden, and assts like McVey, Shanahan... and, the Redskins chose not to give Kirk big $. That says a lot. Can you think of any other QB who's original team let him walk after his 1st contract and who became a...

    ***Official 2021 Vikings***

    I'm shocked to see the Cousins support. Here's what I see by watching almost every game he's played here -- finally couldn't watch late this year b/c I was done w/ Zimmer and the whole thing ---> Cousins looks great in warm-ups and on any plays that work exactly as planned. But, that's not how...

    ***Official 2021 Vikings***

    Yep, defense was underwhelming, but that doesn't change the fact that you can't win much that matters with Cousins. Just treading water if you keep him around. That's a fact. May be stuck in 2022 due to the $45M he's guaranteed, but can't go beyond that.

    ***Official 2021 Vikings***

    Cousins has a nice, high floor, and looks great in warm-ups and when the play goes exactly as planned. His ceiling is about a foot or two higher than his floor. He can get you around .500 every season, maybe a little above, maybe a little below. He has no moxie or leadership ability (which is...

    All FB coaching rumors and speculation

    Who else is tired of coach talk?

    CMC has clearly been great for ISU FB, but I stopped listening to him quite awhile ago - basically, all coach-speak. But, it seems to work with recruits & players, which is what matters. As far as the growth of CMC as a coach, I'd just point out that you can't spell "Best Together Team" or...

    Kalscheur looks to be a good player

    Pretty good comp, but he seems like a much-better mid-range shooter than Kane. Whereas, Kane may have been a better 3-point shooter. Of course, he didn't shoot many mid-rangers...

    Kalscheur looks to be a good player

    I won't suggest that I follow advanced stats much, but those look about like what I saw last night, across the board, even to the order of the three bigs and Grill, Gabe, & Tre having such off nights. Really impressed with Jones' effort; we'll need Conditt to pick it up for much success this...

    The Answer…

    Well, our staff does seem very consistent in that they appear to use early Sept games and then 1st halves to go vanilla and then sort things out after that. Overall, Campbell's approach to games appears to be one of being very conservative and then adjusting from there. Will be interesting to...

    Kalscheur looks to be a good player

    Caught myself saying last night that Tre has an "old man, YMCA game"... nothing fancy or very athletic but gets the job done in a sneaky-solid way. Definitely not suggesting that he's a guard version of Georges. He's not nearly that good, but he's a nice back-up PG who's plays hard, can shoot...
