Kirk Cousins 24/7 thread

[mredskins]

I think if you look at the Flacco situation in B-more is where Scott is trying not to be with KC and us. We simply can't over pay for KC and expect to be anything but mediocre for the next 5 years.

The way the Skins offense is built we need a good QB at a good price. We don't need a superstar at a superstar price tag. I think KC is very good but not superstar. Put KC in say Philly his numbers would not be so hot.

What sucks is the laws of supply and demand come into play. the league probably has the right amount of superstar QBs, god knows plenty of bad QB's and very limited amount of middle of the road guys. So you end up paying superstar $$$ to the few middle road guys but by doing so it limits the amount of talent you can put around middle of the road QB and you ended up asking middle of the road guy to be a superstar; which generally ends in a fail.

Basically we are in a tough spot with KC.

Listened to the audio vault w/ Cooley. He basically said that KC was playing scared because of his contract situation and it was his worst game since he became the starter.

I'm not really buying this. The cap is going up. If you pay your QB 20-23million a year with a 170 salary cap, how does that put a team in a tough spot?? I just don't see it that way.

I was going to say the same exact thing but I obviously don't have enough credibility to be able to state that.

And that's why I asked- what's Cousins' priority?

[warriorzpath]

And reading more into what Cooley said- I believe that I share his opinions in thinking that Cousins' contract took focus away from winning games and because of this - his priority was his contract over winning. Whether he was consciously doing it or not.

[warriorzpath]

... that's why immediately after the Green Bay game - the outburst. And after the Giants game, the focus was more about discussing HIS future and HIS contract. Didn't really catch him saying anything positive about the Redskins team. If he did, it got lost in all of HIS talk about the contract.

I find irony in the comments complaining about my complaints about Cousins' complaints. This is like some next level complaining- sort of like the next level dreaming in the movie Inception but it's next level bitching.

[warriorzpath]

... as a sports fan, it's one of my given pleasures.

And further down the rabbit hole we go with your complaints about people complaining about your complaints about Cousins' complaints

Man, I wish I knew what you were talking about. But I got nothing.

You're partially right, this is like some next level bitching, only it's you that's doing it. Everyone else is having a rational discourse, meanwhile you're covered in horse blood and guts and you're failing to realize there's nothing left to beat. We get it, you are unhappy with Kirk.
