The right team (and yeah, the Jets may be that team) could do some REAL damage with him.
That Vikings team won't win anything with Cousins at this point because they're too far away. They'll get some empty calorie wins but they're not a real threat to win anything meaningful.
Cousins takes more blame than he should for Minnesota disappointing over the years. He's not been their problem - but he gets blame for the problems they have.
But they're going to struggle to rebuild a defense around an aging quarterback while also having to pay a really expensive WR. The best path forward for them is dealing Cousins.

Yeah, I’m on the record last year for changing my mind about Kirk. I think he’s a decent quarterback, actually a pretty good one.
The issue that I’m talking about, Hass to do with decision making in the most critical moments. A lot of us watched that last game last year when Kirk inexplicably threw that ball to the tight end a good 7 yards short of the sticks on fourth down. For their season. that’s the decisions that I think will always hold Kirk back.
And he said, at some point in a subsequent interview that he saw Justin Jefferson down the field, one on one, but was afraid of putting the ball in jeopardy. I’m sorry, but to win at the highest level, you have to pull the trigger on that throw and believe that your guy is going to make a play.
And honestly, it’s Justin Jefferson. I’d have thrown that ball 100 out of 100 times in that situation.
