His play 100 % proved when he left he was a back up at best. If he was good enough to be a starter why did he never get to any other play off games? With out a miracle he would have been part of one of the biggest collapse in play off history. Then he went to Philly and completely shit the bed. With Kenum Vikings wouldn’t have even been competitive and getting to the play offs and it’s not even an opinion it’s fact backed with his play as a starter in Denver.
It would have been fun watching him SCREAM at the O-line on the sidelines all season on their way to a 5-12 record like the Jets the year before. But then hey, the more losses the better the draft picks right?
Sure, and yet that one season in the Vikings got him job offer after job offer. To the point he is in the playoffs this year. Now imagine, if you can, him staying in that Viking system a couple of more years. Sighting in a rifle is a three shot group. To find the middle. He deserved a second season, maybe a third, just to see if 13-3 in the Vikings system, was a fluke like you are saying it was. I knew, 100%, that Kirk Cousins was not the super bowl trophy answer, and signing him still pisses me off. We wasted six years with him, what difference would two more with Keenum have made. That is all I am saying.
And just keep saying it doesn’t make it true. Being a back up and not playing at all in a season and not contributing doesn’t count as making the play offs. The track records of back ups who came in did good then got contracts and flopped the following years is well documented. Scott Mitchell came in for Marino went to lions sucked. Matt Flynn from packers to Seattle and lost job to rookie Russel Wilson . Brock Oswieler as mannings back up played well a few games went to Houston and sucked it up. Mike Glennon went from Tampa after playing well a few games and went to the panthers a flop. Kenum did exactly what the others did who flashed played a good few games and then back to back up status. Maybe there were better options at the time than Cousins but it definitely wasn’t Kenum. Hell they could have drafted mahomes or Lamar but passed on them like a bunch of other teams.
I can agree with most of this. Your hatred for Wentz is unreal, must be a jacks fan. If Wentz had protection, he would have done well in this system. Watch when he was starting and the middle routes, which are the staple of KOC's offense. They were solid.
At what point did I mention wentz at all he was fine for spot starts but as a full time starter that horse has been rode. I don’t hate wentz he’s just not that good homers from nd can’t see past that. I really don’t have a favorite college team but the U from the jimmy johnson days were fun and I guess if I had to pick now Roll tide. What Cig has done at Indiana is really impressive to take the worst team in history to play for a natty in a couple years is wild.
Partially agree on Cig, but in this day and age where money buys a team, i guess i'm not as impressed as one should be. Most of his players weren't recruited to Indiana, which is fine. Look back in this thread, you dogged Wentz from his his signing, but he was the best qb the vikes had under center all year. Just had the worst protection while he was out there.
I wasn't around the tv, how'd the pacakers do in the playoffs? Probably shoulda got up big and took it home right?......again wasn't around a tv.
