Give me that guy over an Alex Smith anyday. We clearly had a real pass offense for the first time all year....w/out Hank and Reed. For only two starts under his belt, and I guy who hadn't started all year, that was pretty impressive stuff on Sun.

He looked like RG3 did against Minnesota. Not better, not worst.

It's not like Griff has sucked all year. He's had a few good games, but he's had several bad ones. It's obvious that if MS stays, Cousins isn't going anywhere and he's going to let this play out. That's the way it should be.

I don't mind cousins staying, and if he plays well he should be given a chance to compete for next year's starting job.

I do think that Shanahan should go though. but that is a discussion in another thread.

It's a bad game when your QB has two INTs and a fumble lost. And let's not forget that we were playing a crappy Atlanta team.

I think Cousins played well, but at the end of the day neither QB is going to be successful playing behind that line.
