Tanking doesn’t work in the NFL and it won’t work for the Minnesota Vikings.
Following their impressive 2017 season, the Minnesota Vikings thought that the addition of Kirk Cousins would be the missing piece to get them over the hump and into the Super Bowl in 2018.
Fast forward to now and all the Vikings have earned is a single playoff win and a 0.527 winning percentage in the regular season in the 39 games Cousins has started under center for them.
Sitting with a 1-5 record after six games this year, it seems like Minnesota’s current starting quarterback isn’t going to be the one to carry the franchise to their first-ever Super Bowl win.
