Griffin Out For Undetermined Time, It's Cousins Time

Right now this is who he is. Just like right now RG3's reality is he's been hurt too much. Time will tell for both of them.

RG3 has three major injuries now in a short period of time. He's also been knocked out of a few other games as well. I just don't think his body is built for the NFL.

If we have a high draft pick next year, which looks like a reality, and Jameis Winston is there, the Redskins have to think about it.

That would be a horriffic draft pick, you cannot ignore the poor off the field decision making. Until this team finds a safety and someone who can generate a pass rush, while only rushing four defenders, we are going to have more of the same 10+ loses a season. Have not given up being a fan, but right now, my rooting interest is in the Nationals. Hopefully the Nats win the World Series and the Wizards do well. The only way the Redskins will improve is if they are knocked off their perch as the dominant sport franchise in the DC Metro area. As long as the owner can trot out a crappy product, yet continue to make money, this franchise will not get better. The whole franchise has a loser mentality, and this has been the case since Norv Turner, as long as the franchise can continue to prosper, based on the glory years from 1982-1991 as fans we are going to continue to witness more of the same. We have almost 25 years of at best medicority, more often than not being the cellar dwelller of an NFC East division that has not been dominant in decades.

We have Colt Mcoy for a reason. I was right on my Cousins / Grossman comparison. No rejoicing.

Yeah and people sometimes say well you have to give him time and he's still young and blah blah blah. But you don't see Russell Wilson having crap games like that, you don't see it from Luck, you don't see it from Griffin, you don't see it from Dalton. Not now and not in their rookie years.

Kirk is a good backup. You can't pin franchise hopes on him. I am still hopeful you can with RG3, but man does he need to stay on the field. Those are two injuries now that make it look like be just has flimsy joints.

Ugh

I look at it this way. Wilson is a good QB. But he's never asked to throw the ball 40 plus times and win a game by himself. If he ever gets in a situation where he has to play from behind, chances are he's going to have a bad game, like many other of the top QB's have had.

EXACTLY! KC is s cross between Rex and Beck. That's all.

[Hog1]

Well.........the job is his to lose
Games like that are a real big step to that end.
BTW....Robert IS proving to be injury prone and cannot stay healthy (Until something changes)
Kirk is Kirk....until something changes. LOTS of potential.....but you have to deliver.

[WillH]

Captain Kirk violated the prime directive . . . we know what he really is now.

[SouperMeister]

I don't see Cousins ever developing into a franchise QB. I think that his ceiling is equivalent to Andy Dalton. Good, but not great.

[BaltimoreSkins]

^If KC plays like Andy Dalton i would take it.

[Gary84Clark]

Andy Dalton was an early second round pick. he is better than Kirk in one imporatant category. Intestinal fortitude. That's where you start when evaluating QBs Mr. shannahan.

[Lotus]

Dalton is better than KC because he is more consistent. While Dalton may not amaze every week, he doesn't have Cousins' rollercoaster ride.
