[quote=punch it in;1211682]Wtf would Cousins or any quarterback ever possibly have to do with the defense from one year to the next or a run game that goes from really good to really fucking bad?[/quote]

Here's a snippet or two:

[quote][url]http://www.espn.com/blog/minnesota-vikings/post/_/id/27430/whats-behind-issues-for-kirk-cousins-nfls-most-prolific-fumbler[/url]
Since becoming a starting quarterback for the Washington Redskins in 2015, Cousins leads the NFL in fumbles with 37, having lost 16, also a league-high, according to ESPN Stats & Information
...
[B]Cousins has six fumbles in the Vikings' past four games, four of which were recovered by the other team. And with every turnover created by a Cousins fumble, Minnesota’s opponent was able to capitalize.[/B]
...
Had Cousins not fumbled at the Rams' 48-yard line during the two-minute drill during a 38-31 loss to Los Angeles, the Vikings would have had a shot to tie the game. In a Week 6 win over the Cardinals, Cousins was strip-sacked and safety Budda Baker returned it for a touchdown.

Defense is dependent on an offense that doesn't turn it over, and on an offense that doesn't set up the D in a bad position.

As to the run game, remember that Case Keenum extended plays and Kirk never showed a knack for that, he would run once in a while but extending plays wasn't his thing:

[U]Keenum's legs are extending plays, Vikings' Super Bowl hopes[/U]
Case Keenum has a knack for creating something out of nothing with his athleticism [/quote]

Dalvin Cook was IR'd last year just like this year, their line is basically the same, they have LMurray as the second back like last year. The biggest difference is that KC has thrown it as many times already as Keenum did all last year. That's on the playcaller change which certainly affected it, but also I am sure KC's throwing ability encourages it, unfortunately putting the game more in his fumbling hands.

Anyway that was a lot of mumbo jumbo. Like I said, you want to like and pine for KC, that's fine. I was obviously glad we moved on from him. I do wish our QBs didn't break their legs.

Guys move on from Kirk. He's a good QB not great. He's gone move on too

This... thank you. My plane for DC leaves in a 4 hours, I needed a little bit of hope...
I have to say when I woke up this morning I thought: hey we still have a talented enough roster to win this game... I just don't know that Jay has what it takes to get the guys to rally... But maybe some in this locker can step up and lead them to a victory...

God I feel like a girl who's been cheated on, dumped and called back, back and forth 50 times over 2 years, and who still wants to believe her man can change and become the great guy she knows he can be...

This post made me laugh out loud really loud. LOLRL. "Technically". So good. Nicely played.

You'll have a freaking blast regardless. A win is just a cherry on top. And don't worry, we all feel like that last paragraph. That is universal. Skins alien fans on Mars feel the same way. HTTR!

[quote=Schneed10;1211638]Yeah at this point might as well root for 4 losses, 6-10 could bring a decent draft pick and it's not like we'd do anything in the playoffs even if we miraculously - and I mean MIRACULOUSLY - made them.[/quote]

Exactly what I thought when Colt went down. This team is going nowhere now...and if IF by some chance we do have a new REAL GM next season and new head coach, a better draft pick is more valuable than any more wins this season.

The next 2 games are the only games Mark could manage the game and we could win, only because these 2 opponents are also out of the hunt. I still don't want to win, we would get destroyed in the WC game by Chicago or Dallas so why even go through that? No thanks. I'd rather go 6-10 and get a top 10 pick

I'd recommend ignoring the KC apologists.

Re: Time to clean house 1.0.
 

I'm not rooting for 4 losses but if they do happen I will not be upset about it. Enjoying ~4 wins this season < getting better draft position for next season.

Frenchie, I wish you luck on your trip. If the Redskins pull out a win, I will be happy for you.

Re: Time to clean house 1.0.
 

Yeah French , enjoy the game. Maybe u can play some QB for us
