ESPN released their playoff QB rankings this week, ranking every QB who shall have the honor of playing this postseason. <\/p>\n

And, boy, did they disrespect Kirk Cousins<\/a>.<\/p>\n

They ranked a somewhat washed Tom Brady above Cousins and placed Cousins below New York Giants Quarterback Daniel Jones and Seattle Seahawks Quarterback Geno Smith. This is especially crazy coming off a season in which Cousins has led numerous come-from-behind victories, 4th quarter comebacks, and has even tied the NFL record for game-winning drives in a season with eight. All of this firmly dispels the narrative that Cousins is not a clutch quarterback.<\/p>\n

Kirk Cousins Ranked Shockingly Low in ESPN Playoff QB Rankings<\/h4>\n

Brady’s Buccaneers finished just 8-9, had a negative 45-point differential, and were forced to limp to a division title in the second-worst division in football. The Giants started the season off strong but then nearly collapsed down the stretch and were fortunate to survive and grab a Wildcard berth. Then, the Seahawks had to rely on Dan Campbell, Jared Goff, and the Detroit Lions even to make the playoffs, as a win by the Green Bay Packers in Week 18 would have knocked them out of the postseason. <\/p>\n

Of course, football is a team game, so not all of the difference between the Vikings success this season and that of these other NFC competitors can be chalked up to a difference in quarterback play. But it is clear that Cousins was a pivotal force in the Vikings journey to a 13-win season.<\/p>\n

The author of these ESPN Quarterback rankings was famous \u2013- or infamous -\u2013 former Detroit Lions QB and current ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky<\/a>. Given his history on the field, we all know that his judgment is best taken with a large grain of salt.\u00a0<\/p>\n
