I love this line about Cousins

On Tuesday, Simms and I conducted a draft of the quarterbacks we expect to play the best in January. Six rounds, twelve quarterbacks. Twelve teams. And Cousins finished . . . .

Not twelfth. He didn’t make the list at all, with one of us taking Taysom Hill instead.

He has the ability to light it up. We want the obvious. We want pressure so we can force him into a mistake.

Cousins is a lot better when he has a running back that can get yards cause he's very good at play action. I'm not saying he's great or anything, but he's better than the showing he put forth against GB. Their RB was injured for that game, and I think it made him look a lot worse than he actually is.

Re: I love this line about Cousins

I'll remain meh on the Vikes and especially Kurt Cousins. This guy comes up small in big games. Sunday will be no different.

This game will be won in the trenches. The Vikings O line is very, very suspect. BTW the Saints RUN D ended the regular season ranked #4.

Vikes only defeated one team (Feagles) with a winning record all season long. I respect the opponent but the Saints are better.

Don't drink the kool aid.

I concur. Cousins has never proven himself and I consider him to be highly overrated. The only point I'm making is he's better than what he showed against GB because he lives off the play action and his RBs were injured. Cousins is a very play-action centric QB. It's one of the few things he's very good at it. If he can't use the play-action he's pretty much worthless. Now if we dominate the trenches, we can pretty much make him look like he did against Green Bay.

Re: I love this line about Cousins

2 of 3 losses came at home this year. One to the pitiful Falcons.

I don’t think we can afford to overlook anyone at home.

No excuses however in that game Armstead was visibly ill with the flu & we lost Peat with a broken arm, not to mention Easton (who has played WELL this year) was inactive in that game.

Remember the Niners lost to the Falcons at home too.

But to your point, better believe the Saints are locked in on Minnesota and nothing else.

Instead of the Minnihaha Miracle, we'll see the Minnihaha Massacre... The Saints putting a whopping on them.
