Alright, so, let’s talk about this Kirk Cousins fella and his injury, you know? It’s a real mess, like when the chickens get loose and you gotta chase ’em all over the yard.
Kirk Cousins Hurt His Dang Leg!
First off, they say he messed up his Achilles. That’s somethin’ in your leg, I think. Sounds painful, like when you twist your ankle steppin’ in a gopher hole. This happened way back when the Vikings were playin’ the Packers, you know, those cheese-eatin’ fellas.
- He was playin’ for the Vikings then. Good team, sometimes.
- Now he’s with Atlanta, that’s way down south. Hotter than a hen house in July, I bet.
- He ain’t played since October. That’s like, almost winter, right? Been a long time sittin’ on the bench.
Poor guy, couldn’t even finish the game. They had to carry him off, like a sack of potatoes. And the doc, he said it was tore, this Achilles thing. Tore it clean, just like that old feed sack I had that finally gave out. That’s what the folks on the TV were sayin’ anyway.
He Used to Play for the Vikings, Now He Plays for Atlanta.
So, Kirk, he used to be with the Vikings. They were his team, you know? But then he got hurt and things changed. They was talkin’ about him not playin’ for the Vikings no more and all that, made me think of when the old mule gets too old to plow the field. You just gotta find a new mule, or in this case, I guess, a new team. That’s what happened I reckon.
Now he’s down in Atlanta playin’ for them Falcons. That’s a whole different place, different birds squawkin’ down there, I’ll tell ya. And they were sayin’ he went back to Minnesota to play against the Vikings, and it didn’t go so well for him. Got himself intercepted a couple times, didn’t even throw a touchdown. Reminds me of my grandson tryin’ to throw rocks at the barn, missin’ every time.
Them Interceptions and Such
They say he’s got a whole bunch of interceptions this season, more than anyone else. Fifteen of ‘em! That ain’t good. It’s like dropping eggs on the way back from the henhouse. You ain’t supposed to do that. You drop one, you feel bad. You drop fifteen, you better be looking for another job. Or maybe Atlanta just has bad luck like when the rain comes right after you plant the seeds.
But, they also sayin’ he’s gettin’ better, this Kirk fella. Healin’ up faster than they thought. Like that time my old dog got bit by a snake and bounced back quicker than you can say “fetch”. He’s workin’ hard, they say, tryin’ to get back on the field. Guess he wants to prove he ain’t washed up yet, like an old washin’ machine that still gets the clothes clean.
Playoffs and Such
Now, I heard tell he ain’t had much luck in the playoffs, this Kirk Cousins. Only won one game, lost two. That’s like tryin’ to bake a pie and only havin’ it turn out right once in a while. You want that pie to be good every time, you know? And people wonderin’ if this leg thing means he’s done playin’. They callin’ it his last pass in a Vikings uniform, like it was the end of somethin’ big. Reminds me of when the old oak tree in the pasture finally fell down. It had been there forever, and then, poof, gone. But he seems to be doing alright, they say he’s ahead of schedule with his recovery and all. Guess that’s good.
Final Thoughts
So that’s the story as I heard it. This Kirk Cousins guy, hurt his leg, changed teams, lots of interceptions, tryin’ to get better. It’s a lot to take in, like tryin’ to count all the stars in the sky. But I hope he gets better. Nobody wants to see a fella hurtin’, even if he throws too many of them interception things.
I reckon that’s all I got to say about it. Time for me to go feed the chickens.
