Yahoo Sports NFL on Kirk Cousins
From the article
Cousins has managed a top ten ranking (7th) across a composite of key quarterback metrics this season. That's leaps and bounds higher than anything the Vikings have had so far this season.
STACKED’s take
Cousins' 7th-ranked QB metrics suggest he'll elevate Vikings offense above Murray/Wentz production.
Cousins' 2024 Raiders performance ranks 7th across composite key quarterback metrics, leaps and bounds higher than anything the Vikings have had this season; his performance this season has been pretty close to his season average across five and a half seasons with the Vikings previously, suggesting age is not an impediment to achieving similar results with Minnesota; the schemes in Las Vegas and Minnesota are similar (both from the Shanahan tree), and Cousins spent a year and a half in O'Connell's system already with three and a half seasons of experience with Justin Jefferson, a half season with Jordan Addison, and a year and a half with T.J. Hockenson, positioning him to ramp up quickly despite potential early-season hiccups.
