Lamar's deal is obviously larger and whether people want to admit it or not he wanted to replicate the Watson fully-guaranteed deal.

Apples to oranges when discussing what's basically a B-tier QB deal.
They don't, which always makes this discussions disingenous.

Besides, Cousins has always taken shorter term deals, which always makes his guaranteed money look more compared to other QBs. If Cousins plays like shyt, he's not seeing all 4 years of that deal as he will get benched like other QBs have been lately.

People gotta start looking deeper into the numbers instead of taking them at face value as all guarantees aren't actually guaranteed.

Posters are simply overcorrecting against the previous black QB stigma and anybody not named Patrick Mahomes isn't worth the deal they sign.

Kirk aint 36 fresh off a career changing injury ????

I get what you're saying but players in their 30's do bounce back from it. Example as Durant and Kobe, that does way more stop and go than Cousins will ever do, nikkas thought they'd never be the same.

Does NY have this same energy for Rodgers or nah?

NY definitely has the same energy (given the field conditions at MetLife) + bad offensive line

Falcons have great weapons, good offensive line, and play in the easiest division....it's shouldn't be difficult to get 9 or 10 wins

Kobe is not a good example of returning from an Achilles injury...

Can’t believe there’s an 8 page thread on freaking Kirk Cousins :what:

Pundits acting like he’s the missing piece in Atlanta :mjlol:

He was supposed to be the missing piece in Minnesota after they fell in the NFC Championship, and they got worse.

Minnesota has always had weapons his time there, and if you take away that fluke season a year ago, his time there was the definition of mid

Are Atlanta fans actually excited about this move?
