The New Orleans Saints are just a few days away from opening their postseason run a little less than a year after they saw their Super Bowl hopes get taken away from them due to a terrible non-call.
Pro Bowl defensive end Cam Jordan basically opened up the trash-talking when asked about the Minnesota Vikings and their upcoming wild-card matchup. While appearing on “The Rich Eisen Show,” Jordan answered a question about whether the outcome against the Vikings would depend on how healthy Minnesota running back Dalvin Cook is for the game.
Jordan deferred the question and basically turned his attention to Kirk Cousins.
Jordan: “The issue is knowing what kind of Kirk Cousins you’re gonna get”
Eisen: “So what do you mean by that, Cam?”
Jordan: “At times he looks to be a very proficient quarterback.”
Jordan stopped after that comment, which leads you to believe that he knows how inconsistent Cousins can be when he gets on the field.
Cousins ended his regular season with a 10-5 record, completing 69.1 percent of his passes for 3,603 yards, 26 touchdowns and six interceptions for a 107.4 passer rating (a career-high).

Jordan was also dismissive when asked about the Minnesota Miracle, which came on a Case Keenum Hail Mary play to Stefon Diggs that knocked the Saints out of the playoffs two seasons ago.
“That was two teams ago and like five quarterbacks ago for them, right?,” Jordan said, via Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press.
