What about Kirko back to Vikings as Qb2?
Well you knew someone would eventually bring it up.
Never say never lol!
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

I'm not pimping for that either...But if Dimes and Darnold both walk?
Well, that QB room looks mighty --- questionable.

Well, starting this weekend, he is officially a backup in ATL.
Yep, and then some reporter asked him at his presser yesterday if he was ok now being a backup the rest of his career (lol, these reporters man....) and he got a little prickly and said, 'I haven't forgotten how to play QB'.....he sounds like he's mentally very fragile. Mr. Sad Sack at the microphone.

I cant fully understand what happened...Big part of me still believes its physical and not between the ears.
I'd tend to agree more with this if he started slow and then played great.....but he was 'playing' well when they got to 6-3 and looked good, then he just fell off the table. If the surgery was still an issue, it wouldn't be in that timeline. But I will say that we've all seen where a dude was suffering from some mystery injury and then months later admitted that was the case, but that's where the HC Morris would say, "Kirk's been fighting this X nagging injury and needs some down time, etc." But that's not how its gone down: Kirk has sucked and he got his ass benched. He can't use the offseason surgery as an excuse because he was playing better earlier in the season where it in theory would be impacting him more.
JMO, but I think its very mental BECAUSE of how quickly it turned bad. I think Kirko is always running a fine line mentally between moving on from a bad pass, which he doesn't do well, to being confident. KOC was in his ear constantly to let shit go and move on, we've all seen the sideline mic'd up moments between the 2 of them. Cousins is the type of dude that can have people tell him he's awesome 99 out of 100 times, but he focuses on the 1 negative feedback.

You could very well be right Sticky...In all these years of watching pro ball, this level of decline this quickly? I dont recall it happening too often.
I'd feel bad for the guy, but his great grandkids wont have to work if they dont want to.
Yeah, Kirk's a good dude. He's a Midwest sports nerd that is pretty genuine and is pretty good at football as he's made a shit ton of money. He's also handsome, as my wife has told me several times unsolicited. ;)

spend it better else where! if they get signed to another franchise, then
use it on a player that may help you in the future, not complicate the present.
Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?
