Cousins is getting better all the time. He's cutting down on the crucial mistakes. We know he can lead a late comeback to win a game. He's proven that - which is a very big deal, IMO.
I wouldn't try to rank him at this point but I will say that I believe he hasn't nearly reached his full potential. As he gains more game experience and continues to progress, I think that most of us will begin to regard him as much more valuable than we consider him to be at the present time.
He got a key weapon back (Reed) against TB and he used that weapon well. I'm eager to see what he's able to do with with a full complement of receivers: DJax, Reed, Garcon, etc. It could be very exciting.

Cousins!
This season he has only had two bad games (Giants and Jets) a couple good games and a couple great games (Eagles and Bucs).
He spreads the ball around nicely and gets it out quick. I think given time he can and will be a really good NFL QB.

Was listening to Cooley's film breakdown yesterday.There wwere a couple of throws that cousins made that I thought were terrible throws that Cooley said he thought the same thing till he watched the film.There was one to Crowder where he had to reach back and looked like he almost broke his leg reaching back for it.I thought that was a bad throw but Cooley said in his film breakdown that was a great throw,that it was placed where it needed to be and it kept Crowder from being laid out by the defender.Who knows? I know Cooley has a lot more football x's and o's knowledge then I do

I want at least two or three games of consistent good play - meaning: 1) No bonehead INT's; and 2) consistent accuracy with his passes.
I have never doubted his ability to play well on a game by game basis. I have, and continue to, doubt his ability to play well on a game to game basis.
Right now, I remained unconvinced that this 27 year old QB is not the same generally inaccurate, interception machine he has been for his first four years in the league.

Maybe kirk becomes another Romo like QB I hope so but it remains to be seen. The NE game is colossal for the redskins, can u imagine the circus if we beat them??

Nevermind the circus, I really can't imagine beating them. In Foxboro. With no running game. With no one to handle Gronk. With Belichek having extra time to prepare. etc. etc. etc.
OK, that does it, we're gonna win. HTTR!

Yes 27. Yes four years. But basically a rookie as far as playing time. If he truly had 4 years under his belt and was still making these mistakes the experiment would be over - imo these things can still be chalked up as rookie mistakes. Not to mention he has 7 starts total where he has been taking first team reps , etc. I like the improvements im seeing at this stage of his career (in dog years).
