MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — Through 10 weeks of the NFL season, there’s an unexpected name topping Pro Football Focus’ passing grades.
The Vikings’ own Kirk Cousins is the best passer, according to PFF. While Tampa Bay’s Tom Brady has a better overall grade, Cousins’ 90.0 passing grade is a full point better than the seven-time Super Bowl champion. Cousins’ overall grade is 90.8, just behind Brady’s 90.9.
If Cousins keeps up this level of play all season, he would earn the highest PFF grade of his career, besting the 2019 season in which he finished as the sixth-ranked QB with an 84.
