VIDEO: Kirk Cousins Absolutely Sucked in Vikings Preseason Game Against Cardinals and He Admitted It
By Mark Powell
Vikings fans might want to look away. While Mike Zimmer opts to keep the team's backup QBs ready at all times, Minnesota must rely on Kirk Cousins given the lofty contract he was handed and the expectations that came with it. After a lackluster Year 1 with Cousins, in which they failed to make the playoffs, the former Michigan State Spartan isn't off to a great start in 2019. Cousins appeared flustered against the lowly Cardinals on Saturday in the preseason, and made some truly awful decisions to boot.

By all means, continue to berate me over the fact that this is only a dress rehearsal.
#Vikings QB Kirk Cousins disappointed in his play today vs. the Cardinals.

Yet, 10/10 Vikings fans would rather see their supposed stud QB thrive in a meaningless game than suck. Sorry, you can't have it both ways.
