Quarterback Kirk Cousins
So this one will probably make a lot of people angry, but hear me out. Cousins hasn’t been stellar with the Vikings so far, although he’s still managed 56 touchdowns and just 16 interceptions in two seasons.
The biggest criticism of Cousins is that he can’t win big games, but the quarterback was stellar against the Saints, and the 49ers defense caused problems for every offense it faced in the playoffs, even the Chiefs until they pulled off the comeback Super Bowl win.
Do I think Cousins belongs in the Ring of Honor right now? No. Do I think if he keeps improving, in an offense that now caters to his skill set, he’ll end up one of the better quarterbacks the Vikings have had? I do.
