To start a pretty good QB is to be two of the worst things you can be in the NFL.
The Minnesota Vikings did what was expected of them, both over the past few months and the past few years. Over the shorter term, the Vikings were supposed to bow out of the playoffs early because, while they won a bunch of games this season, they looked less than scary while doing it. Only two teams won more than their 13 games under first-year coach Kevin O’Connell, but eightto win the Super Bowl entering the postseason.
But Cousins persists, and the team goes through the motions because it lacks a better option.Sunday’s wild card playoff loss to the New York Giants was microcosmic of Cousins’ place in football. He was quite serviceable and, for most of the game, even. He threw 39 passes and completed 31 of them for a pair of touchdowns while remaining interception-free. A third touchdown came on a QB sneak after a video review nullified what would’ve been another passing score.
