and Cam Newton sucks
Not as bad as Kirk Cousins. Man what a lifeless showing against the Bears.

Considering the QB play yesterday across the league, seems weird that the guys who had the 5th (Cousins) and 6th (Newton) best QBR on the day are the ones singled out.  Only Brees, Luck, Winston and Trubisky were higher than those two.

Carson Wentz, Deshaun Watson and Marcus Mariota were all sub 25.  Outside of Brees and Luck, the best QB play we saw yesterday was mediocre.

when you sign a contract like that, you might be singled out

With the NCF North wide open given Cousins is only good for stats, the Bears offense is questionable, and the Lions are their usual self, I’m wondering, for as much as I’ve ripped on Green Bay, if this is one of those years where Rodgers goes on one of his late-season tears we’ve seen before. In 2013 the Packers were 5-6-1 having just lost to Detroit on Thanksgiving before winning the Division. In 2016 the Packers were 4-6 before capping the regular season with 6 wins.

Now, at 4-5-1, can Rodgers lead a similar uphill run? His bum knee slows up his mobility and even if it’s talk radio hype, there’s so much coverage of how disagreeable Rodgers is with McCarthy.

It wouldn't shock me, but that's really just faith in Rodgers.

I still think it's the Bears, but if the Vikings can get their defense fixed, they could still make a run.  Last year they led the NFL giving up only 6.0 ypa, now they are giving up 7.5, good for 17th.  Get that pass defense sorted out, and I think the team looks a lot different.

the Vike's defense is only good on 3rd down and wasn't even good on 3rd down last night

I'd rather the Bears win the division than Rogers

He's usually not great in the endzone but I'll take Cousins at 30M/year over Keenum at 17M/year.

I'd rather have Keenum and more money spent on the O-line

Cousins belongs to the class of QBs whose Pro Bowl level stats don’t contribute to actually winning or the fortitude when the game is on the line. A class whose chief practitioner is Matt Stafford, aka Stat Padford.
