Im a big Cousins fan and want him signed to a LTD .... but dang, paying 80-100M guaranteed and breaking the record books for the 10th or 11th best QB in the league just seems odd. I understand leverage, market demand, future salary cap inflation etc but this still feels like things are going off the rails.

After listening to pundits, posters here I think the BA statement was more pettiness. I understand the need to get your version out there first to set the narrative, but the very real by product of CYA is turning a portion of your fan base against your starting QB.
