Who is Kirk Cousins?

spot on Marty. I think Kirk just started his 16th game last week against the Bucs.

What he has done through the first 7 games with the injuries to key offensive weapons, no run game after week 2 and he had to do so against some of really good Defenses.

Jets (2), titans (5), bucs (6), rams (13), falcons (14), eagles (16) .. then the giants at 29. rank by yds/g.


its going to be fun watching to see what he and this team does for the remaining 9. Most projections have us as a 6.5 win team and ill take it.

If memory serves (which may be an issue) Joe T would have been on the field a few seasons earlier but he could not force Billy out. He threw to many Int's. And a few other things.......
But finally, he matured and made a great QB...take note KC

Although Kirk just had a very good game, he hasn't been that consistent in his passing and decision making this season. His inconsistent play has cost the Redskins games this season (not going to discuss his dismal play last year).

You guys are seriously cracking me up. Give me one QB in the history of the NFL with the amount of starting QB experience Kirk has (on a team that is still building around him) that showed the "consistency" you all say he lacks, and the flawless decision making you all say he should have attained by now.

This whole thread is a joke - Who is Kirk Cousins? -------> :Flush:

"Ohhhhh nooooo, he was baited and threw a pick to DARELLE REVIS...." lmfao as if they guy hasmt picked off almost every starting qb in the league smh, yall expect perfection from the kid when the organization and team as a whole is so far from perfect its not even funny.... smh

lol ... Wow. KC folks as rabid RGIII fans were.

Who knew?

I don't know if I am rabid, but I am a fan, and I am willing to give the dude a chance, and I am not yet willing to declare him a career backup, or simply the short term solution, when he has barely even gotten his feet wet at this point.

Kirk Cousins AMA live right now. Reddit co-founder and huge Redskins fan is looking out for us with some direct questions from us.

I'm honestly in the middle when it comes to Kirk Cousins, because I don't know what Scot McCloughan really thinks about him and whether Cousins is in his long term plans at all.

Before this year, I'm sure a lot of us thought that Alfred Morris would be in McCloughan's long term plan; yet Scot went and basically drafted a replacement right away. Now, we all know that there is little chance Morris is back with the team next year.

I hope Cousins continues to improve. If he continues to be inconsistent, but does enough, he can become the bridge QB, until whoever Scot chooses to be the QB of the future.

I think you simply get through the full year, see where you are, and assign a value accordingly. You can't say there aren't signs of progress this year. But so far you also can't say he's worth a huge long term deal.

The right play might be a 3 year deal for mediocre starter money, letting him prove himself and earn a big QB payday down the road. Meanwhile at same time scout QBs and draft one if you think you've found the next Russell Wilson.

Luckily we don't need to decide now. Let the season play out.

You people act as if we are rooting against KC. We arent, im sure every Redskins fan hopes he turns out to make Joe Montana and Tom Brady look worse than Ryan Leaf. We just dont think he will. He comes across as an average at best QB.

Also, stop with the whole Peyton Manning threw a lot of interceptions when he was young. Yes, that is true. But for every Peyton, there are 50 or more that didnt overcome it. If every young QB that struggled early turned into Peyton, every team would have 3 Peyton Mannings on the active roster and 2 more on the practice squad with a pool of 100 not on any NFL team waiting to be signed. You act as if overcoming his ints is a given once he starts some magical number of games when history has shown that the majority dont overcome it.

The team is still lacking in a lot of places. There is still a lot of improvement to be had from positions other than QB so its certainly not just KCs fault. But KC is still the same guy he was as a senior in college. Some great games, some good games, some terrible games.
