Who is Kirk Cousins?

2015 NFL Team Passing Stats - National Football League - ESPN (http://espn.go.com/nfl/statistics/team/_/stat/passing/sort/netPassingYardsPerGame/position/defense)

New England is middle of the road passing defense yardage-wise...and seem to be avg to slightly above average generating interceptions. Philly and Giants do a better job generating them.

So this monster of a defense you describe is not really true. Cousins will have opportunities and is expected not to turn the ball over.

well, cousins seems to struggle with disguise defenses. much like revis' pick where they played mostly man all year, almost exclusively man all 1st half then on that play show man but really it was zone.

cousins, when pressured, needs to not throw a blind ball trusting what the D showed presnap will hold true post-snap.

Belichick with 10 days would scare any Qb, much less Kirk Cousins.

Plus, we are a 14 pt dog and are expected to be playing from behind by double digits all game = cousins throws more 50/50 balls than he would like = ints.

no one is saying Cousins is a top 10 or even 20 QB at this point.

i guess if and when we get behind by a few scores ... our QB should play conservative and not take chances to make a comeback?

i really really hope our run game and front D line got fixed over the bye. would be huge to get back to what we were the first 2 games.

if cousins throws more than 32 times = loss

if cousins has to throw over 40 times = epic loss w multiple picks.

Jay and McVay need to have their shit together, Kirk is gonna need a gameplan that takes what we saw against Tampa and expands on it. Prior to the Tampa I felt their game plans to be limited.

If our defense lets them score 50 points on 500 yards of offense than KC will wind up throwing more than 30 passes. I dont see us running much when we are down 30 in the second quarter. We absolutely have to contain them. Once again it is a team sport. The D feeds off the O and thr O feeds off the D.
Are we getting any players back?

Nothing says "time for a QB change" more than "its ok if Cousins throws interceptions because its the Pats or Belicheck defense. "

Get the fuck out with that bullshit

lol - dude what do you want me to do? we are a double digit dog at foxboro. while there is always a chance, the projections dont look good for us.

"time for a QB change" .... change to who? ultimately, no matter how any of us feel about cousins, there is no better alternative and barring injury he will have 9 games to prove or disprove himself.

this debate is about 9 games too early.

i tried to stay out of this cyclical thread but that post about 5-2 just riled me up.

Seriously, can we just put this to bed already? It's KC or bust at this point.

Amen. Been saying it till I'm blue in the face.

You can't take any action now. It's a pointless discussion at this point.

Its play well as a "team" or bust. Just sayin. There are qb's who can make everyone around them better. There are qb's who can get the job done with the rite pieces around them. There are qb's who suck no matter what. Imo KC is good enough. Unless someone in tier 1 falls into our laps we will continue to build around KC.

Did i say monster of a defense?
I think i said grand master of scheme against qbs bill bellicheck.....
Hmmmmm......
*sips kool aid*
But thats none of my business...

A short passing game with a run sprinkled in every now and then to keep them honest?
