My point is greatness has to overcome adversity in order to be considered great.

People still once in a while (at least in my circles, bring up Andy Reid mispronouncing T.O.s name, when T.O. was new to the team...

Redskins CEO mis-said Kirk Cousins name when he was their #1 QB and trying to sign him to a starting QB contract.


However even the great Aaron frik'n Rodgers has a much higher rating when he's in a clean pocket than when he is under pressure.

With pressure, he's 17th... and is just average as he mentally falls apart... But simply there are times when he's darn good.


And they finally got what I think will be a very good offensive coach, which is what I was hoping there wouldn't...

I know it’s just one game, but I didn’t see much last night that makes me feel like Love has significantly improved like everyone has been saying.

Except you didn't make a point, you were just a pain in the ass because someone said something nice about a division rival, and then cried like a bitch.

But yes, he's great with no pressure, and he sucks with pressure, with a much more extreme than normal.

Cousin is great when he doesn't mentally fold to pressure...

He's also slightly below average (17th best) when he gets pressured, which is a fairly stark contrast, as Beast has already pointed out. This makes him something like an average or slightly above-average QB when considering his overall performance.

In any case, the sexist and homoerotic comments seem a little out of place.

What seemed out of place is his attack on me by calling me a bitch. He gets what he dishes out *shrugs*.


Cant stand posters like him who resort to little kid shit because someone disagrees with your comment. It really is a female trait

There is nothing great about Kirk no matter what nit picking or hot takes take place. That was my main point. Hes always has and always will be avg at best as an overall QB.

Wow....it seems some guys here have their underwear on too tight.🤪😁
Really, a difference of opinion should be treated as such, just opinions. Neither right or wrong.
Cousins is good when given time. Most NFL QBs are!
It's when they are under pressure that makes them great or awful. Otherwise I'd call it "average" at best.
Uh oh.....I'm gonna get BLASTED!!!😀🤪

If only he'd actually care to read and understand the qualifier part of the statement...

And yes, all QBs do better with no pressure, but to swing from top 3 (out of 32) to bottom 16 (out of 32) is a huge freaking swing... might be the biggest swing of any NFL QB, at least of those in the top 10 of either category.

Also, it implies, at least someone has a better ranking with pressure than they do without... Not that they are better, but their ranking is better.

So, Jordan Love. I don't know if it's being fortunate with Favre and Rodgers, but Love release seems slow, or maybe not slow, but just not quick. When I see his arm open up, I can look to see where he's throwing it. Favre and Rodgers, it is more like oh ball out -- follow ball.

I think he has a longer whippier throwing motion, which is to his disadvantage, albeit I think he has a hell of an arm.

We all may recall that Rogers had a much longer throwing motion when he came in from Cal and has, over the years, shortened/quickened it quite a bit.
Go Packers!!!!
Fan Shout
Zero2Cool (1h) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.
Zero2Cool (1h) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022
packerfanoutwest (1h) : pro bowl
Zero2Cool (1h) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (1h) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.
packerfanoutwest (2h) : it was always after the SB.....
beast (11h) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago
beast (11h) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?
packerfanoutwest (12h) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii
TheKanataThrilla (13h) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it
Mucky Tundra (13h) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!
TheKanataThrilla (13h) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (13h) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (13h) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (13h) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB
Mucky Tundra (13h) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?
Zero2Cool (13h) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting
TheKanataThrilla (13h) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings
TheKanataThrilla (13h) : Great throw by Hurts
Mucky Tundra (14h) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)
Mucky Tundra (14h) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez
Mucky Tundra (14h) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away
Mucky Tundra (14h) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems
beast (14h) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (14h) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (14h) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (14h) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (14h) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (14h) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (14h) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (14h) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (14h) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (14h) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (14h) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (14h) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (14h) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (14h) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (14h) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (14h) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (14h) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (14h) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
Mucky Tundra (14h) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire
Martha Careful (14h) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs
Mucky Tundra (15h) : this game is over
Mucky Tundra (15h) : This might be the kill shot here
Mucky Tundra (15h) : oh that's such a bad penalty for KC after getting the 3rd down stop
TheKanataThrilla (15h) : Philly DL has come to play
TheKanataThrilla (15h) : Ceoper DeJean with the INT scored...bad memories of draft night
Mucky Tundra (15h) : ok scratch that
Mucky Tundra (15h) : Game feels like last years Super Bowl: 49ers started off in control, moved the ball well but didn't have much of a lead to show for it
