      Definetly love seeing these vids of players interacting each other, especially since we like to pretend that these teams "hate" each other, but a lot of players hang out with other people from diffrent teams. Plus the mutual respect they have especially younger players who play against older ones that they looked up to

      Mostly because nobody or majority of football players aren't trying to purposely injure somebody or take them out the game. So I'm guessing once Adams saw him on the ground for a short period of time he knew he had to check on him. Plus I think Adam said they're friends.

      Cousins has the arm and accuracy of top 5-10 QB. It’s just mentally like during primetime games or when you’re down in the 4th quarter where he can be very frustrating. He can also be very frustrating by how conservative he is, especially when he takes a 3 yard check down on 3&10 when he could’ve thrown it up to either Diggs or Thielen (which Keenum did too much of imo), who are great in contested catch situations.

    I love these FilmSessions. They go against the narrative that football is just this brutal blood sport for dumb, strong, and fast athletes. Videos like this prove that there is a lot more of a cerebral factor and studying to the game than the typical "I'm just stronger/bigger and faster than you" rep that football gets.

    Everyone talking about Kirk. I agree he's good. But catching balls from literally any starting QB in the NFL is borderline an honour. Without pressure they would throw you absolute dimes. Great qbs are separated by intelligence and efforts in practice, not how accurate they are. They're all accurate. Some are just better on one foot, or under pressure, etc.

      @@roberth7701 Kirk was actually one of the best passers under pressure last season. He excels under pressure when he has a hot read. Kirk's struggles lie in the pocket. He has very poor pocket awareness, both deriving from not having a clock in his head and not reading edge rushers. Despite a poor offensive line, he's probably responsible for half the sacks and all the fumbles.

  • @self-righteousideologue9398

    Not a Vikings fan but I love Thielen. He is amazing and his back story is one of the best of all time. He came from nothing, wasn't drafted, went to a rookie tryout just because it was his dream to play in the NFL so he decided to try. Somehow (to him) made it to the practice squad, then special teams, then #1 receiver. Next to Philip Lindsay, Thielen has the best NFL story of anyone I've ever known
