Cousins always plays well in the first half of the season (a couple seasons ago he was the no. 1 QB in the NFL Sep-Oct, statistically), complete with elite passing stats and a great W/L ratio. Then November comes around and things start to fall apart for him.
Plus, Cousins doesn't do well at all if you apply enough pressure/get a few sacks. He's not good off-script or improvisationally, if you prefer. If he's scrambling, chances are he isn't going to wow you with a great play to save the drive. At best, he doesn't turn it over. But it'll be almost a coinflip whether he shits himself or does the smart thing and just throws it out of bounds.
It's just his history. Many years of it.
Bottom line, if both Josh Alen and Von Miller are playing, i'd take BUF to win. Maybe MIN could cover this time.
