Hope he breaks RG3's rushing TD record too.[/quote]

Where are you reading hating and not believing??

I've seen several recants on here.

Actually I'd like RG3's rushing TD record to stand as a testament to his true skills.

I'ld love to see RG3 remembered positively for what he did do and released, and for KC to take the reins going forward - which he definitely has done this season.

Re: Who is Kirk Cousins?
 

It's encouraging that Cousins has been able to quickly nip the turnovers in the bud. You have a guy like the "golden child" Luck who hasn't really been able to shake the turnovers but the media has overlooked it time and time again, and contrast that with Kirk who hasn't really been turning the ball over with any regularity in over a month yet the media still always seems to mention "if he can keep the turnovers in check" whenever the subject of Kirk is brought up.

Re: Who is Kirk Cousins?
 

Gruden and McVay really opened up the offense yesterday. Had a lot of longer routes than usual, seem like Jordan was split out more than usual, longer developing plays etc.

You could see the emphasis to get D Jax more touches, I like that.

Seems like more layers were added in the passing attack which just shows more faith in Cousins.

[quote=skinsfan69;1133721]It's a week to week league. If KC throws a couple picks and we lose next week, it will be "fire Gruden and who's the top qb in the draft!"[/quote]

Most fans are not quite as fickle as you think. Nearly all redskins fans now know what we have in KC, Gruden, and SM.

[quote=skinsfan69;1133727]Things sure have changed around here regarding KC lol. [B]In the end it's not about who was right or wrong.[/B] It's just good to see stability at the QB position, w/out any week to week drama. It looks like we'll have that for the next several years.[/quote]

It's never about who was right or wrong, according to those who were wrong.

We still have people here who seem to want Kirk to get down on his knees and **** them before they'll admit that he can play. They're just keeping quiet for now.

Someone that is about about to be filthy rich in a matter of weeks/months. He's our QB. Get use to liking that for the next 5-10 years.

I like Cousins potential because he doesn't take a lot of sacks, so he doesn't get hurt much. BUT, all the positive press and crazy stats makes me worry(in a Redskins fan paranoia way) that the season is a bit fluky, and we will see regression next year - assuming we don't bungle the extension/resigning of him.

from the article:
[QUOTE]But nobody quite realized that Cousins’ home season was history in the making. The NFL revealed today that no quarterback in league history with a minimum of 100 pass attempts at home has had a higher completion percentage than Cousins’ mark of 74.7. Not Brady in Foxborough, not Manning in the dome in Indy, not Brees in the Superdome, not Marino at the Orange Bowl.[/QUOTE]

Totally agree. That's what makes the Dallas game so baffling.

I'm a Gruden supporter, but I'm still not over Dallas.

I was behind on reading the thread (because of the birth of my child) but up until before Sundays game some people still calling for RG3 snd/or saying he is a superior QB.

2012 was a magical year and I will always remember Griff for that but I can't keep living in the past.

If Kirk breaks Griffs record, we can finally maybe put all the comparisons behind and just roll into the future. I just want to win!

Was going to bold the same thing and say "sure it is". Lol.
Dude is playing at an elite level over a period of a few weeks. This all on a team who is rebuilding and also during a "code red" stretch. Pressure on. We keep saying this is what he has the potential to be. Than he exceeds those expectations. Than we go "well he maybe is more than just the best qb available. So lets try n project his future instead of just reporting the obvious. So here goes. This guy is going to be a top 5 type qb some day. Boom. HTTR!

Re: Who is Kirk Cousins?
 

I just don't think this is about all Cousins, I think its really about Gruden, McVay and Cousins. Cousins isn't an elite, top 5, carry everything on his shoulders type QB...they are super rare.

But the Skins did get a taste of that "eliteness" with RG3...everything was there. Big plays, armstrength, make every throw, win big games, vocal, says all the right things, leader,etc. So as a fanbase, we all thought we had this finally!!!

Reality set in the previous 2 years, so even with Cousins doing all this...I still know he has limitations. With that being said, Gruden is brought in as QB/Offensive Guru so its his responsibility to get this thing together. McVay still has a lot to prove as a O Coordinator.

So I think we can say Cousins, Gruden and McVay have all made stride this year. Lets continue to build, but lets stay a little medium with this.

Some folks are not really redskin fans ..they just like to show up and spoil the party for everybody else..if you are not onboard at this point about Cousins you are a closet Cowboys fan and just can't come to grips with the bright future of the SKINS!!

Did Griff ever have a qbr of 120 at home n go 6-2? Maybe he had limitations. Im sick of that crap. Ya dont have to be flashy to be great ya just gotta be great. Ive seen Cousins carry this team plenty this year. Plenty enough to know that he can do it again n again.

Re: Who is Kirk Cousins?
 

I agree with whoever mentioned Jordan Reed being split out more yesterday. I am used to seeing him run those 5-7 yard routes where he usually gets contact at the point of catch and fights for the first down.

Not sure if McVay saw a weakness in Buffalo's secondary specifically or they just decided the time was right, but Reed was all over the place getting open. He is such a mis-match for any defense that wants to play safties due to be worried about Jackson over the top. Reed was simply running down middle of the field, baiting a safety into coming up to cover, and just juked them. Wide open.

Re: Who is Kirk Cousins?
 

Imagine where KC would rank if he did not have "limitations "
