Me likey

i fuck with it bro, can we get a vid on prescott and his situation with the cowboys?

Can we get the 2023-2024 full season recap

I love the short videos and they’re what got me hooked on your channel in the first place

Good vid - definitely do more short ones like this. I like your channel and content - up to the 20 minute ballpark. More than that, when you get to 50 minutes or 60 + minutes, you're competing for viewership choice between a KZfaq vid, or some seriously higher production value item of the same length, like a Netflix or HBO episode or documentary or the such. I probably watched all your vids up to the 20 minute length ballpark. Haven't watched a single one of the long ones. The choice between spending an hour watching some guy commenting on KZfaq vs, say, an episode of Squid Game or House of the Dragon, is an easy one.

Top 7 QB also goes hard.

​@varunvallury3499, are you just going to white knight kirk the whole time

@@dtcuniversal6689If he won’t, I will.

I hadn’t laughed that hard at something in a minute

😂😂😂😂

Y'all defense sucked but it's ok

@@damianpresha9833 That's why he wasn't "the problem". Our defense got worse and worse from 2017, while he was part of why our offense got better.

@@timfortune9He’s a problem in the sense that you’ll be drafting outside of the top 10 every year with a steady 7 win floor 10 win ceiling. He’ll keep you in NFL purgatory skating mediocrity.

@@chicagodude8888 Of course, this is coming from a Bears fan. Enjoy another QB bust. (But hey, October is my favorite time of year. Then I remember which team I follow and keep at it throughout. Sounds familiar no?)

@@chicagodude8888the bears haven’t had an above average qb in the history of the franchise.

Also a fact is that he is a top 7 QB in the NFL

@@varunvallury3499lmaooo

@@varunvallury3499 I say top ten but respectable

I don't know about that​@@varunvallury3499

That would be Sam Bradford. Kirk’s been pain market value for his performance for his entire career.

He wasn’t “bad” as a quarterback, but he’s inconsistent.

He’s the best “dad” qb in the nfl

He is a top 7 qb in the NFL.

Dak is the best bad qb. Kirk is verging on good

Coming from a Vikings fan that seen him play for over 5 years Kirk isn’t bad at all there are times when he’s even flirting with elite level His major flaw is that he panics in game on the line situations & tends to crumble, poor pocket awareness added with poor ability to escape pressure He’s the best above average QB, when cousins is in his bag he’s one of the most accurate

Kirk Cousins is firmly within the good QB tier.

@@varunvallury3499 I feel like he’s not on the same level as some franchise guys, like Goff or Stroud, but still better than guys like Minshew and Geno who are firmly mid. Ergo, he is the line.

He used to not show his face in the beginning if I remember correctly

In 2022, the Vikings had a 28th ranked run game and a 31st ranked defense and he led the team to a 13-4 season. If that's not putting the team on your back, I don't know what is. In 2023...the Vikings started out 0-3 because of the insane number of times that players dropped accurate passes, tipped the ball to other team, fumbled the ball, knocked the ball out Kirk’s hands (this same guard stepped on Kirk’s foot three times in 2022), didn’t block defenders, and committed stupid penalties. Kirk played lights out vs the 49ers and Green Bay (without Justin Jefferson) and got the team back in the playoff race. And if THAT’S not putting the team on your back….I don’t know what is.

​@Paula-mv8im the problem is what he did in the playoffs with that team. You can lead a bad team to many wins in the regular season, especially with an easy schedule. It takes an Elie qb to take a bad team and win a title with them. Like when eli manning won a title with the last ranked running game and defense.

@@Giantsfanlewis Couple of things, 1st the Giants did not have a last ranked defense. It was the worst defense to ever win a Super Bowl but not last ranked. Off the top of my head I don't think that the running game was last either because Eli never put together that kind of a season. The Giants were surely overachievers that season with lots of close wins and I believe a 10-6 record. 2nd Cousins played very well in that playoff game against the Giants. In fact he had the highest rated game by any quarterback in any game that postseason. 3rd If you compare Cousins to the average quarterback in the most comprehensive formula ever created to analyze a quarterbacks career you will find that he is the 19th greatest quarterback with at least 8 years in the league since 1947. His play has been about 54% better than the average quarterback during his time in the league. Eli has also been run through the extensive calculations and tests out at just over 5% above average.

@bryanjones4444 in 2007, the giants were 16th in points allowed and 26th in yards. In 2012 they were 13th in points allowed. But 31st in yards allowed. They had bad defenses in both seasons. So not dead last, but absolutely horrible. Especially in 2012 in terms of stats, that great. Tony Romo and dad Prescott have way better stats than eli as well. But just like cousins, they don't have those super bowl titles that eli does, and likely never will get one. So glad cousins is a great reg season qb. But he chokes when the playoffs ckme

@bryanjones4444 so buddy, the giants had 1427 yards rushing in 2011. That was the worst in the league. They also allowed the second most yard in the nfl that season. The giants won the superbowl with the worst rushing game and practically the worst defense in the nfl. But yeah, checking stats for yourself is hard

Me too!

the docs tho are super good too please know this!

And did it in a fraction of the time

No, the most expensive bridge QBs are Russel Wilson and Deshaun Watson.

No one is more happier than Kirk after seeing that the Vikings neglected the o-line.....yet again. The Falcons have a far better o-line and defense.

@@Paula-mv8imlmao when Kirk fails in Atlanta, y’all gonna blame the o line again or are yall gonna blame the defense? 🤣🤣🤣

@@ErikCB912lmao how were they bridge QBs? When their teams signed them, they didn’t go out and draft first round rookie QBs to take over. 😂 They were just failed QBs.

@@Paula-mv8im”neglected the oline” 2019- garret Bradbury 1st round, 2021, Christian Darrisaw 1st round, Wyatt Davis 3rd round. 2022 Ed Ingram 2nd round.

If you are playing a bad team and you just need the QB to be good Kirk is good if you are playing a great team so need the QB to be great Kirk is good if you really want to tank so you need him to be bad Kirk is good

@@grinningchicken "Good" quarterbacks don't lead their team back from a 33 point deficit...the biggest comeback in NFL history.

​@@Paula-mv8imyes they most certainly do. Especially if the team your facing isn't good, like indy in that game. Daniel Jones lead the giants on a 28 point second half comeback to win. Backups lead insane comebacks all the time. Jeff hostler of the giants was a backup and never amounted to much of anything, but he lead a comeback in a superbowl. Stop trying to make kirk something he isnt

@@grinningchicken good quarterbacks aren’t down 33 to a 4 win colts team in the first place

@@Giantsfanlewis Did you look at the comparison to Josh Allen? He is not as athletic as Allen but he is a much better quarterback.

If you look at them the passing stats are not that similar. Cousins is far superior.

Since you are a Kirk fan I will give you some fun facts you can share with those who doubt his ability just because the media has never liked him and underrates him all he time. There is a formula that compares a quarterback to the average quarterback of his era and then compares how far above average all the great quarterbacks are. It is called the "REAL GOAT" scoring system. It takes into consideration all the stats that are kept and no stone is left unturned. Kirk is the 18th best quarterback, to play at least 8 seasons, to start a career after 1947. He is on a pace to break the career record for 4th quarter comebacks even though his defense gave away a total of 10 in just 2020 and 2021. He has accomplished this with the worst offensive line in the league over the first 5 years in Minnesota. Remember that teams win games, not quarterbacks or any other player. Kirk cannot be faulted for his team not winning playoff games or making the playoffs. His average playoff game has been better than Tom Brady's average playoff game even though he was sacked 3 times as often as Tom.

@@bryanjones4444 thanks for backing me up. It's all too common that haters feel the need to teardown Cousins as an average at best QB simply because of the wins and losses. The narrative has been set and will not change maybe ever. But they said the same thing about Matt Stafford. They called him "Stat Padford" because he had great stats but few wins in Detroit. But the narrative has changed now that he won a supperbowl. Im just hoping Kirk can do the same.

​@blakedean904 kirk will never win a superbowl lmao

@@blakedean904 Me too, I have been a Viking fan for 55 years but I am disgusted with the way they treated him. The new GM is tearing apart the team and this year I will be rooting for the Falcons. When the two teams meet.

​@@bryanjones4444 Big Kirk fan here as well. I'm still ticked off they let him go. Adofo-Mensah obviously wanted his own guy. But....I think he's getting a better o-line and defense in Atlanta. I'll be rooting for the Falcons as well when they play the Vikings. I looked at the Vikings roster. It seems to me that Adofo-Mensah got rid of all of the players that he didn't draft or bring in (unless they were stars) which was like most / half of the roster.

Me too, we lost a very good quarterback.

That actually doesn't make sense. It's the opposite. Being spectacular is what has fueled his career. Kirk gets paid like he does because of his performance and durability. Before this injury, he hadn’t missed a game due to injury in his 12 year career. He throws 4000+ yards and 30+ TDs every season like clockwork. His career passer rating is 98.2. which is the 8th highest passer rating in NFL history…in NFL history. He’s 5th all-time in completion percentage. His passing yards per game also ranks 10th all-time in the history of the NFL. Say the Falcons had signed Garoppolo, who is a 2x Super Bowl winner, but can’t stay healthy and got benched for a rookie, they wouldn't have paid him that kind of money. It's a team sport, dude. Players are not paid based on wins BECAUSE it’s a team sport. Quarterbacks can only control what the offense does.

@@Paula-mv8im Kirk does what he’s supposed to do and his record is what it is 76-67-2 slightly above avg starter. Hes basically Andy Dalton. In fact he’s tied with Andy Dalton with 2 career ties.

always like 12th best qb

Yeah Kirk struggled his first year in MN but after that the defense fell off and a great offense with a bad defense usually leads to .500

Kirk never put up points. Kirk never lost games 45-42, 38-35. Kirk is a game manger that’ll score 22-24 points a game. Which is just under or over league average. Hence why Kirk has never led a top 5 offense in his career. In fact the Vikings in his 6 years had an average of 14th in ppg.

Explain how he's the most average Qb ever.

@@jayclean5653 for starters he’s been in the league 12 years and he’s coming off an injury it’s safe to say his best years are behind him. 2 the eye test you can just look at cousins play and tell he’s average he doesn’t have a Big arm and he’s not fast.having at least one of those two skills separate elite qbs from avg he doesn’t have an elite skill he doesn’t have any weaknesses either.He’s always played balanced and doesn’t make many mistakes he’s not the worst starting QB,but he’s not the best either. He’s not better than DAK Prescott those two QBs are my standard of players from avg (cousins)to slightly above avg(Prescott)if you look at cousins QB ratings and numbers it’s all middle of the pack as well and I can think of ten QBs better but also ten QBs worse he’s as average as you can get a glorified game manager with ZERO PLAYOFF WINS

Sure, Kirk has had guaranteed contracts his whole career but the trade-off is that you’re not the highest paid quarterback either. Kirk was the 15th highest paid quarterback when he was Minnesota.

@@Paula-mv8im yeah but no other journeymen quarterbacks come close to kirks ability

Finally someone who gets it. He was the first half MVP last season and nobody was close. But fumbles, drops and mediocre at best defense left them at 4-4. If Kirk had stayed healthy and the defense played the way they did in the second half of the season they may have won it all even with a bad o-line.

As a Kirk fan, this video is completely bogus and untrue.....smh 0:59 In 2015, the Redskins DID make the playoffs 1:33 … in 2016, Kirk “played well, but not great’?? huh? He only threw for 4,917 yards and made the Pro Bowl …. 3:47.. I sure wouldn’t call Josh Allen a generational talent. As a first rounder, he’s been one and done in the playoffs the last three playoff games. I’d call that a choker. And Kirk’s stats are better than Allen’s, not the same. 4:15 The eye test is better than advanced analytics? Idiotic comment…like armchair quarterbacks are experts. People see what they want to see. For example, Allen leads the league in INTs and he isn’t an interception machine and gets a pass. Btw…Kirk does pass the eye test. 4:41 QB rankings are a joke. You’ll notice the top eight quarterbacks are all first rounders like they get that ranking based on their draft status instead of their performance. 4:56 “Kirk didn’t do anything crazy that season except that insane comeback vs the Colts” hmm…contradict yourself much? He played like top 10 quarterback and led the league in fourth quarter comebacks (8) and game winning drives (8). 5:11 … he didn’t elevate his play? Oh really?? The Vikings had a 28th ranked run game and a 31st ranked defense and he led the team to a 13-4 season….with his arm….smh 5:26 MVP season and a "super small sample size"....dude...it was half of the season!! He didn’t play for half of the season and he was still 2nd in QB rating and 3rd in completion% after the season was done. 5:37 So Kirk was only playing well because he was in a contract year? Kirk has been on 1-2 year contracts for his whole career (except for the three year deal when he came to Minnesota). He’s always playing for his next contract. 7:02 … “Kirk is a con man”… riiiihgt … He gets guaranteed contracts (but the trade-off is that you’re also not the highest paid either) because of his performance and durability. Before this injury, he hadn’t missed a game due to injury in his 12 year career. He throws 4000+ yards and 30+ TDs every season like clockwork. Tell a Kirk naysayer that the Vikings finished 13-4 in 2022 despite utilizing the NFL’s third-worst defense per points allowed in 2022, and within minutes, they’ll tell you why he was to blame or how he didn’t do enough to drag the team to the Promised Land. These people simply choose to ignore the defense’s inefficiency for most of Kirk’s time in Minnesota. Remember all that sympathy from the media and fans afforded to Stafford in Detroit from 2009 to 2020? Poor guy never gets any help. Take that mindset - and flip it. That’s the Kirk Cousins’ experience.

​@@Paula-mv8imCorrect. Kirk's not an elite top 5 guy, but he's right around the #10 guy, and he's been that guy for a decade.

@@Johnhargrove18 Kirk Cousins has a passer rating of 96.9 with 2,799 yards, 17 touchdowns and 7 interceptions in 12 games versus the Bears in his career. He was 8-4 against us. You need your eyes checked.

@@Johnhargrove18 Mitchell trubisky played, Jordan Howard touched the ball 21 times.

That’s all our starters that were worth naming at that time. Idk what backups you’re talking about

Deshaun Watson did used to be great. At football, that is, not as a human being. I'm sure the Browns were hoping he still would be, once he shook the rust off. Brock Purdy IS great. Is he surrounded by talented players? Sure, so was Tom Brady. But I'm pretty sure being the NFC champion qualifies as "getting over the hump". Yes, winning the Super Bowl would be nice, but when you're up against Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes, good luck.

I believe that most Vikings fans have always liked Kirk and wanted him back. The vocal minority was just that, vocal, and had delusions that they were the majority.
