Stefon Diggs has reportedly asked for a trade

FinSaint · 09-26-2019, 01:15 PM

Minnesota is a good team with a 2-1 record, and their only loss was against GB at Lambeau, which they could've won if couple of plays went differently in the 4th quarter.

Their O-line has improved since last season especially in pass protection and their offense seems much more potent with Kubiak helping on that side and Cook running like he did in his first year before the injury.

Their defense is full of top talent and it's run by Zimmer himself, who is as good of a defensive-mind as Payton is on the offensive side of the game.

They have good WRs in Thielen and Diggs with a good TE in Rudolf and a very promising TE prospect in Irv Smith Jr.

I'm not a fan of Cousins, but he can be a really good QB, and I'm sure he'll improve with the new offense and when he gets more time with the rookie center Bradbury.

Diggs is a primadonna and wants the spotlight to be on him. Thielen has outplayed him, which is why he has been more highlighted in the first games. He has absolutely no reason to demand a trade if that is in fact what he has done.

2-1 with wins against the Falcons and Raiders. Neither one of those teams have looked impressive at all so far this year.

If Aaron Rodgers had not regressed into a below average QB, Green Bay blows them out badly in that game. It was Rodgers crap play that kept killing drives for GB and keeping the Vikes alive in that game.

Cousins is all time 5-22 vs teams with a winning record. If his name was Matt Ryan, no one on this forum would dare defend him.

People are fooled by Cousins and have been fooled for years now cause he pads his stats in garbage time of blowout losses and will put up a great game against the trash teams on their schedule. Washington fans figured this out years ago and it don't look to have changed at all.

They're a talented team, but they were a talented team last year too. Like last year, they are going to blow out the trash teams on their schedule, and then lay down and get destroyed by the good teams. They will go 8-8 and spend another season of people arguing about how great Kirk Cousins' stats are and blaming everything else on the team.

I hate Minnesota as much as I do the 49ers though, so I enjoy their misery.

I'm not sure who you mean by defending Cousins, but he has been criticized by the local and national media and the Vikings' staff.

And I understand that you like to throw around that stat about him losing to teams with winning records, but that doesn't necessarily translate to Minnesota.

I'm pretty sure that almost everyone agrees that he was overpaid, but that is how it goes when only a certain number of QBs are FAs at a given offseason and the bidding war ensues over their emoloyment.

I'd still argue that the Vikes are one of the stronger teams in the NFC.

Has he outplayed him? For you to make plays at WR you have to be targeted. Any player with Stefon Diggs talent would want to be traded if they felt underused. Highlighted would be an exaggeration he only has four more targets than Diggs. 1 more TD and +hundred more yards

If you don't get targeted you usually are doing something wrong. Being in the wrong spot, not beating your guy etc.
