Cousins hasn't proved a thing to be any better than RG. They are different type of qbs, so if being a more traditional qb is your idea of being better than ok. They both need alot to prove if either wants to have a career (as a starter) in this league. I have a hard time putting one ahead of the other. 2 years ago the only good thing about this skins team was RG and Morris, they both carried a horrible team to a division title, and health aside were looking very good against a Seattle team before things literally tore apart. RG took a step back last season obviously but Kirk had 3 games in which the team wanted to showcase him and his trade value actually dropped. If you extend his stats to an entire season from those 3 games they still were worse than RGs "horrible" season in regards to comp %, avg pass yards per play, and turnover ratio. You have one guy with health issues and a high ceiling that will probably never reach it because of health and an ignorance to trying to get better. And you have another guy who has probably reached his ceiling and has a habit of turning the ball. One is probably the better option for now, one is probably the better option for the future if he wasn't made of glass. Really a lose lose because there really isn't a 'franchise' qb in either one of their futures at this rate.
