I think the Vikes should sign Cousins to a lifetime contract.

His QBR today was 15.9.

Stafford is Phil Rivers minus the fun.
Archie Manning. Plenty of stats, few wins.
If you think for one second that I am comparing the USA to China you have bumped your hard.

Fair comp.  Archie spent a lot of his career running for his life, too.   Only guy on the team you had to game plan for.

Yep. Whenever I think of a quarterback with great stats and few wins to show for it, Archie comes to mind.

Another first for the Lions. Today they became the first team in NFL history to blow double digit leads in 4 straight games.

That takes quite a rare combination of talent and indifference.

Impressive but wait until my Vikings give up a safety in 10 consecutive games.

"Fox is poised to spend up to $2 Billion per year to keep Sunday Football lineup."

This won't go over well with the people aren't interested in the NFL crowd.

It's for the rights to highlights, that's just as valuable (maybe more valuable) to ESPN than the MNF rights. The highlights fill so much content for them.

Just an utterly shocking development that Kirk Cousins lacks self-awareness.

Interesting. Especially since it seems like SNF has been getting the better matchups.

When you have Get Up, First Take, PTI, SportsCenter, and all those shows in between running 12 months a year, and they have to have content to fill, yes, ESPN/Disney has decided it's worth a billion a year.

Yup, used to produce/edit clips for Perform to distribute to their partners.

Highlight restrictions are so ridiculously strict to the point where we had to edit entire 5 set tennis matches down to 30 seconds. Those rights are ridiculously important.

The NFL did ESPN a solid this year with a better schedule. Next week's Chiefs/Ravens game is on MNF, and arguably could be the game of the year.

And they fired Jim Caldwell for going 9-7.
