Which it was the other way around. =(

Will be the only reason why I would watch the Pro Bowl. With Kerrigan, Reed, and Schreff not playing, I think we only had silverback left who would be playing in the Pro Bowl. I have to admit, it's only fun for me to watch when there's a bunch of Redskins playing. Otherwise, total waste of time.

My feelings were right on the Manusky hire, so I think my feelings of Cousins being signed to a big contract as soon as the Super Bowl is over with will be spot on as well. I'm starting to see that there will be continuity (at least this year), and the biggest spot to keep things heading upward is to re-sign Cousins.

The dumbest thing of all is putting any credence in the rumors that Shanahan could go hard after Cousins. Like, does anybody really think Kyle Shanahan has had any time to do anything besides watch tape and gameplan for the teams the Falcons have faced in the playoffs? There's no way he's talking to all these NFL insiders and telling them how much he wants Cousins. And San Fran doesn't even have a GM in place, for God's sake. All this is just speculation, that because Kyle had Cousins and liked him here, that he'd like him in San Fran.

But to say that the 49ers would be willing to give up two first round picks is getting the cart waaay out in front of the horse.

When Kyle gets there, he'll assess his roster, and he'll form an opinion. He'll no doubt like the idea of Cousins but there's no telling how much he'd want to give up in a franchise tag steal deal. And all of that will be subject to discussion with the GM, who hasn't even been hired yet. He'll go through his own assessment of the roster.

Is it possible? Sure I guess. But acting like this is a done deal doesn't even make one shred of sense. Snake, you suck at thinking. Please just stop posting.

The most likely course is that the Redskins pay Cousins handsomely in a long term contract.

What does Bucky Brooks say about Cousins going to SF?

That seems to be what the news and sports media base things on all the time - speculation. Sure, I can see a scenario where Kyle would want to lure Kirk Cousins, but I don't see it as likely. If anything, I could see Shanahan convincing Kaepernick to stay for a bit longer, and the 49ers use their draft picks to rebuild the team.

The only person who could screw up the idea that Cousins gets paid big money would be Dan Snyder. If it was up to him, he'd still have RGIII starting.

They had top 10-15 Defenses and could run the ball, but again, they still SUCKED BALLS because they didn't have a QB.

It will be much easier to build the team around Cousins, even after paying him, than it will be to build an all time great Defense that any QB can win with. The Skins won 3 Super Bowls with good QBs who didn't have to carry the entire load. How many Super Bowls did the Skins win with the 29th ranked Defense and a crappy running game. Build the Defense, get better at running the ball and you can win with Cousins for the next 8-10 years. Pushing the reset button is insane. Give me the known entity every time vs. another 20-30 years of wandering aimlessly in the abyss.

We are on the same page. The worst part is people still think 24 mil a year is too much for a qb like Kirk. That's the f'n going rate nowadays, and it won't even screw up the cap. Pay the man.

Critical Thinking:

Critical thinking is simply a deliberative thought process. During the process, you use a set of critical thinking skills to consider an issue. At conclusion, you make a judgment about what to believe, or a decision about what to do.

There are a number of critical thinking skills. A core set includes the following:

--Suspending judgment to check the validity of a proposition or action
--Taking into consideration multiple perspectives
--Examining implications and consequences of a belief or action
--Using reason and evidence to resolve disagreements
--Re-evaluating a point of view in light of new information

if he chooses to go to Cleveland, he took way to many hits to the head (and he didn't take that many)

Here is the issue, whether you like the idea or not, there is a strong possibility of a trade. Redskins have traded Champ Bailey when no thought they should do it. We signed Haynesworth, Deon Sanders, and countless others when it was a bad idea. They even gave the house for RG3. As long as Danny Boy is the owner, anything is possible.

Stats don't lie. Cousins is a legit QB and that has value in the NFL. To say that no other team would be interested and he is not worth 2 first round picks is incorrect. Look at his stats and compare them to all QBs in first two years of starting. He is favorable to the majority of Qb's out there. He is the QB of the #2 offense in 2016.

We can't downplay his talent nor can we over estimate the intelligence of our front office.

I think i'm at the point now where you guys aren't going to have to ask me twice. I've not been like the argumentative posters or the people who have gotten banned. The hate on me here is ridiculous and uncalled for. I have done nothing. I have not trolled the boards or started stupid threads, or attacked other members personally based on things like religion, ethnicity, or handicaps (As has been done to me here).

I have drawn the ire of the boards for posting stuff mainly in the Cousins threads, and defending my belief that we will not re-sign Kirk Cousins. I have also expressed my opinion of Mr. Snyder that no doubt many others share but may not be so bold in posting. I have criticized Gruden's decision to promote from within to fill our openings rather than hire from outside the organization, and it is my belief that this could indeed cost him his job here.

At the end of the day we are supposed to debate these things as FANS, with the exception of people like SmootSmack who are privy to organizational information. The bottom line if you guys were the experts here about the redskins and or the NFL in general, you'd be working for the NFL and not attacking me on a MESSAGE BOARD. Keyboard commandos here for sure

[artmonkforhallofamein07]

Pay him, pay him & then pay him again. The FO like carrying over money. Fucking pay the best damn QB we have had here in a long time. You let him walk or trade him for unproven draft picks is freaking stupid. If I was San Fran I would give Washington my second overall pick for him. Much better odds of success with Cousins than some unproven rookie QB that may or may not be worth any damn thing.

Keep posting.

I disagree with most of your opinions but you are always genuine.
