I REALIZE That most are now on the cousins bandwagon, because that's just the thing to do when everyone else is on him too. But really, what did he do that was impressive this year ? He was fortunate enough to play probably the shittiest schedule ever in the worst NFC East ever and he managed a 9-8 record. WOW. The Redskins only played 4 teams all year long who finished .500 or better. They went 0-4, losing those 4 games by a total of 75 points. OUCH. In those 4 games, Cousins QB rating was 69,68,69, and 91 for an average of 74. That is horrific. He also had QB ratings of 68 against Miami, 69 against NYG, and 57 against NYJ. Really this guy was fortunate enough to get to play against a lot of shit defenses and he racked up numbers against some of them, but he didn't have 1 decent game all year long against a .500 team or better. He didn't win a single game against a team with a winning record. So what happens next year when the NFC East is decent again ? What happens next year when he doesn't get 13 out of 16 regular season games against teams that finish with 7 wins or less ? I say that Washington and Cousins will definitely do a "first to worst" next year. I hope they come out with a season win total on Wash next year of 7 1/2 or 8 on the strength of all the Cousins ball washers. This team will be lucky to finish 5-11 next year.

Washington might had a career year I think this guy might be onto somethingComment -
Going from first to worst in that Division is no big deal at all. They get the AFC and NFC North in 2016 on top of hosting Carolina and going to Arizona.Comment -
He'll be fine if Mcloughan continues to draft strong and bring in decent FA and stays off the sauce. Think Cousins can play he just needs better talent and o line stillComment -
He's ok , look at his weapons not the best playing on a mediocre teamComment -
This is Kirk cousins progressions
see if Jordan reed gets open
throw to check downComment -
Funny part is he will get 15 mill a year for 4 years.Comment -
Cousins cannot handle pressure it is sacks, turnovers, and throwaways every time. But when he has time to throw he is great.Comment -
Not a skins fan but I been seeing cousins play past couple years and always felt he was better than rg3. First, he he has a great arm. He can pretty much make every throw. I think his issue is two fold though, first size, he's short comparatively, I guess Brees had same issue but definitely not mobile as athletic. Second he is a creature of habit. Meaning as soon as things don't go according to hameplan, he has difficulty improvising and making a play. Overall, I think he would excel in a good system with great talent around him, similar to Alex Smith maybe. I have seen him make much better throws than smith but again his limitations are athleticism. He is a an extremely hard worker so I think to say this is the best we will see of him is inaccurate.Last edited by trobin31; 01-14-16, 10:11 AM.Comment -
The schedule wasn't much but this was his first year with significant playing time and he played much better in the second half. The Redskins' offense could use a good receiver or two; if the team gets that, he'll have a good year.Comment -
just cause you said that, they'll go 11-5 next year and beat their first opponent in the playoffs..

You didn't like that?Comment -
you obviously didn't watch too many skins games this year considering your idiotic and dumbass post...this was Cousins first year as a starter...yes, there were growing pains but he showed the world what he is capable of and that is being an elite, upper echelon QB in this league...he was ranked in the top 10 in just about every statistical category for a QB...Cousins was NFC player of the week like 3 times and NFC player of the month....He utilized all of our WR's, especially TE Jordan Reed...he's got a strong arm and is extremely accurate...cousins will only get better with more reps and starts...and that we have a real GM in Scot McCloughan building the team around him, the Skins will be a formidable team for many years to come...HAIL!...
PS..don't take my word it...listen to all of the scouts, coaches, GM's around the NFL saying all of these superlatives about Cousins...and guys like Bill Cowher, Ted Bruschi, Herm Edwards, Ray Lewis, Steve Young, etc!...all praising him...and I trust their opinions over yours!...

He is good. NFL guys need to get paid more. They are getting pennies compare to other sports. Life shelf 4 yearsComment -
Aren't you the same chick who made the prophetic post about how Minnesota was going to tank the week 17 game at Green Bay? Maybe you should stop making these caps locked dart throw predictions and try to find someone who can give you the attention you need irl. Either that or just grow up.Comment -
Only a 3rd tier team would hand the keys to this dude.Comment -
Tough to win with team cancers like JacksonComment -
Apples and Oranges....RG3 is dogshit and a one trick pony gimmick who had no business being an NFL QB...Shanahan was clever enough to run a zone read option scheme which made Robert look a lot better than he was...RG3 is also very fragile and has a paper jaw...too injury proned...now mix in the fact that he can't read defenses, holds on to the ball too long, etc, etc. and now you have a recipe for disaster at the QB position....Kirk Cousins is the exact opposite of all those aforementioned deficiencies and also can play the position from the pocket, something that RG3 was incapable of doing....

rgME was lightning in a bottle when he took them to the playoffs, not dogshit. The issue was managing his potential.Apples and Oranges....RG3 is dogshit and a one trick pony gimmick who had no business being an NFL QB...Shanahan was clever enough to run a zone read option scheme which made Robert look a lot better than he was...RG3 is also very fragile and has a paper jaw...too injury proned...now mix in the fact that he can't read defenses, holds on to the ball too long, etc, etc. and now you have a recipe for disaster at the QB position....Kirk Cousins is the exact opposite of all those aforementioned deficiencies and also can play the position from the pocket, something that RG3 was incapable of doing....
Cousins had one ok year. But NFL history is littered with backup-type guys that flash in the pan and then flop.Comment -
It will be the Giants div to lose next season they dumped the senile old fart coach who single handedly lost 3 games for them minComment -
How do you know the NFC east will be decent next year?
They could all be dogshit again.Comment -
People who think kirk cousins is a good qb are what we call, hamburgers.Comment -
Is this post as "idiotic and dumbass" as the one I posted last week saying GB would Beat Washington by at least 14 points ? You know the one where existential and stealthy burrito and others said I was an " imbecile" for saying GB would beat Washington by at least 14 points. They aren't saying anything now, they must be on vacation or something.you obviously didn't watch too many skins games this year considering your idiotic and dumbass post...this was Cousins first year as a starter...yes, there were growing pains but he showed the world what he is capable of and that is being an elite, upper echelon QB in this league...he was ranked in the top 10 in just about every statistical category for a QB...Cousins was NFC player of the week like 3 times and NFC player of the month....He utilized all of our WR's, especially TE Jordan Reed...he's got a strong arm and is extremely accurate...cousins will only get better with more reps and starts...and that we have a real GM in Scot McCloughan building the team around him, the Skins will be a formidable team for many years to come...HAIL!...

. Same as you will be on vacation next year when Washington goes 4-12 or 5-11. But let me say thanks anyway. I hope there are a lot more squares like you who jump all over the "Cousins went 9-8 against the shittiest schedule ever and 0-4 against winning teams" bandwagon. I dream that the sportsbooks will put up a Washington season win total next year of 8. Oh I dream it. That would be free money on the under. Your boy only played 4 winning teams all year long and he lost those 4 games by a total of 68 points and that was with a touchdown with 22 seconds left in a game he was trailing 27-3. In those 4 games the Redskins averaged 13 points. Now get back to name calling, that's all you have since the facts are clearly against you.

You are still confusing the team with the individual, Cousins is really turning into a solid QB the Redskins still have a relatively weak team.Is this post as "idiotic and dumbass" as the one I posted last week saying GB would Beat Washington by at least 14 points ?

Yeah no shit. This was his first year. So penetrating what. He will get better and the league will adjust to him as well. It doesn't get easier, it gets harder. I can almost guarantee the Redskins season win total will be way too high next year because so many think Cousins is "capable of being an upper echelon QB in this league". Wow he sure didn't show that in the only 4 games he played against winning teams. He got shut down in all 4 , had shitty QB ratings in all 4, lost all 4. Christmas is coming in July this year if they put up an 8 for Redskins season win total.Comment -
you should be more concerned about your overrated, lucky ass sea hags getting their collective asses this week against a real team in Carolina!...only reason why your garbage team is still alive is because of a botched 27 yd fg attempt for by the Vikings!Is this post as "idiotic and dumbass" as the one I posted last week saying GB would Beat Washington by at least 14 points ?
