    Kirk Cousins doesn't scare anyone... He's average

    Neither does Baker if you ask other teams…but Cousins uses his weapons well and plays a scheme perfectly fit for him that doesn’t ask too much in regard to showcasing arm talent.

    Except Baker is 10x's more athletic and accurate...

      Vikings being 4th in the league in passpro efficiency also helps. 

      Of course, Vikings opponents to date have been the Bengals, Cardinals, and Seahawks.. and only the Cards have anyone more than just another guy on the DL.  Yes, you can only play who the schedule tells you, but you have to scroll pretty far to get to Vikings OL preview

        Cousins has a career completion percentage that is 5% higher than Baker's, while also throwing for slightly more yards per attempt.

        But sure, he's more athletic, I suppose.

          Cousins is no pushover.  He's been playing quite a while now.  He won't be holding the ball as long as Fields did.

            The Vikings offense is a legit professional unit.

            The Bears offense Sunday was a trainwreck. Rookie QB with a coaching staff who did him zero favors behind a Swiss Cheese OLine.

            The Vikings offense will be an interesting challenge for the Browns defense.

              Is Cook running the ball?  If he is, the defense will have a big time challenge

                                    Thought I saw that Dalvin cook's injury is a high ankle sprain from Cards game.. Those can be pretty bad, he didn't practice any last week.. Could be out this week also.

                                    Vikes OL is doing much better at passpro than run blocking.

                                      In the trenches Seattle are chumps compared to our lines.

                                      Zona and cinci are steps behind us on both sides.

                                      We will control the line on both sides.

                                        sometimes it's better to look at Thursday & a meaningful Friday report...

                                          Don't undersell Mattison.  Kid would be a 1000+ yard back if he didn't have Cook in front of him.  Liked that kid at Boise State and he's grown into a quality player.
