Who is Kirk Cousins?

This is funny.

You think this team, with all of its injuries, should be ..... 5-2?

even funnier ... its all bc of Kirk Cousins?

it gets better though .... you think gruden and Scot agree with you and that any fan who thinks we shouldnt be 5-2 but for Kirk Cousins doesnt know football!?!

some random stats, i dont know what to do with them.

skins v falcons - D gave up 418 yds while we managed 51 total yards rushing. despite that, down by 3 with 24 seconds left, that asshole Kirk goes 46 yards in 24 seconds for a game tying field goal. we were without reed and jackson. falcons D ranked no. 11.

skins v jets - D gives up 474 yards while we managed 34 yards rushing. By the way, we were without trent, reed and jackson going up against the no. 3 defense in the league. That was probably the least talented group of starters on offense any QB had to work with that week .. against the Jets D .. but we should have won, but for Kirk Cousins not "managing" the game.

How does a QB manage a game when he is getting 51 and 34 yards rushing or being asked to throw 38+ times? Thats not being asked to manage.

Does Kirk get any love for coming back against the Bucs for the win or do we blame him for it being 17-0.

bucs 1st 3 drives:

1st drive - 64 yds = TD
2nd drive - 71 yds = FG
3rd drive - 72 yds = TD

^^^ is that Kirks fault too?

I love this. This is such a cool new way to look at things. Lets just make stuff up to fit our agenda.

This is the kind of Cousins hate that I just do not understand. I totally understand people who want to wait and see if Kirk put together consistent games.

I do not get posts like yours though.

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.

KC is a free agent at the end of the season. If he plays well it will cost $$$$$ to sign him. If not, the Redskins are back to square one.

We wont break the bank by signing him. We still hold our draft picks, and we can still afford a couple FA pick ups. Ill leave all that to the FO though. Point is if he plays well than we would be idiots to let him walk. Especially after our history with qb's. We build around him.
Edit : by a couple free agent pickups i mean improvements - not just the obligatory tit for tat bologna.

I am not sure what people see in Cousins that makes them think he is a QB you can "build around" Now, that doesn't mean you can't win with Cousins, but I don't see any franchise building themselves around Kirk Cousins. To me that would the equivalent of saying the Jets are building themselves around Ryan Fitzpatrick (well, besides the age factor).

Cousins has his pros and cons, but do people really see intangibles and x-factors in his game that lead them to believe he is a QB you can build around? Usually that kind of QB shows something elite very early in their career and uses seasons 1-3/4 to work out the kinks. I have yet to see something about Cousins's game that screams "franchise QB that absolutely must be locked up"

Again, I don't want to make it seem like we can't win games with him, but if Cousins is the route this team plan goes to go long-term under Scott McCloughan, then we better start seeing every draft pick in the near future being used to build a Top 5 defense with staying power.

Go get Matt Stafford and grab Sean Payton too .....Blow it up and get a coach who is a proven winner

I agree completely.

We need to get a QB who can finally not only throw the ball but be committed enough to also catch a few balls himself. Would be nice if the new QB could run the ball, do some blocking, play some defense and do special teams just for those onside kicks.

I agree completely.

Thank you. Finally someone who understands! Lmao.
Honestly there was some people posting in here that were heavily under the influence of stupid. So glad you posted this.

You know ... like Mike Shanahan.

I seem to recall Matt Stafford having this ability. We need to defiently get him this off season. I also think it would be smart to fire Gruden and start over again because continuity dosn't matter in the NFL..

Kirk Cousins has proven to me that he is NFL starting QB material. I think he is good enough to win with now and he is continuing to get better. We haven't even glimpsed his ceiling, IMO. He is the proverbial late bloomer. There are also no off-field or locker room problems with Kirk.

I don't expect many Redskins fans to agree with me about Kirk right now. I completely understand why other people need to see more from him before jumping on his bandwagon. For now, I'm happy to be one of the few people on his bandwagon and I'll be here to welcome many more people throughout the rest of the season.

I think that the Redskins need to re-sign Kirk or risk derailing their team building effort.
