Cousins threw 16 INTs in only 14 games last year. He absolutely quit on that team after signing that huge contract. He's a piece of trash for that and should rot on the bench somewhere and fade off into obscurity where he belongs.
Cousins didn't quit on the team. He was terrible because his body is breaking down. Maybe another offseason after the Achilles injury allows him to bounce back, but at his age I doubt it
What you're saying is the correct answer to the question as to why the Giants would be interested. And it is another indicator of how dumb teams can be.
Sam Howell is on their roster and gives them as good a chance at winning as the FA's available. And that statement probably sounds worse if you're a Seahawks fan.“The Seattle Seahawks were not on anyone’s radar until trading Geno Smith. Now, the Seahawks could be another team that wants in on the Justin Fields sweepstakes. While Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times reports they are out on Russell Wilson, Fields could now be an option for the Seahawks.
On top of that, Gregg Bell of the Tacoma News-Tribune sees Fields as a player who makes a lot of sense for the Seahawks. It seems there might be some smoke behind that.”

Nobody colluded against the bears. It was just a situation of supply & demand.
He was dreadful down the stretch for them but they literally played each other week 1 in Atlanta and Fields threw for one more yard, took the same number of sacks as Cousins, didn't throw for a pick like Kirk did (Kirk also threw a TD) and ran for 57 yards and the Steelers won on the road.
I don't believe that at all. Feel free to call it a "conspiracy theory" but I'll die on that hill with no regrets. Fields was worth more than a 6th or even a 4th, teams chose not to offer fair compensation because they figured the Bears wouldn't have the balls to keep both QBs. They were right, good for them.
Kirk definitely wasn't better than Fields. I think that's pretty obvious. His body is failing him. He doesn't have the arm strength to hit out routes anymore
...the Raiders didn't choose to have an awful qb situation to screw the bears out of a higher draft pick. Teams don't tank seasons to hurt another teams trade return. This is delusional.
At this point... Who cares. He's not a concern for the Bears and what's done is done.
I would expect him to get 12-15 mill/yr. Maybe if someone like the Jets is desperate because they have 0 options outside of fields it gets up to 18ish.
I've seen QB's that could barely lift their arm, and yet they didn't throw up as many dumb and careless passes as Kirk did. Atlanta has a good Oline and good talent to support him. He just didn't give a damn. I guess his brane was breaking down faster than the rest of his body. He suddenly lost his ability to make smart decisions right after signing another undeserved guaranteed contract. He's trash.
This can’t be serious.
I had to one-up your hilariously bad take on teams “colluding” against the Bears with a comedic bit
This is really ridiculous.
So... he's trash and doesn't deserve to make demands to get play time
