Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
Are they all putting up the same or better stats they were 5 years ago?

George had the absolute strongest arm EVER in the NFL, even in today's era where you had guys that had crazy arms like Jamarcus, Matt Stafford, Cutler, etc.. There's no shortage of players to tell you how hard Jeff George threw the ball, it was like an absolute rifle. And his arm strength never dipped with age, go check out the youtube video of his open workout from around 2010 or so. I think by that time George was about 40 and was still throwing 65 & 70 yard deep passes and making it look easy. But as you said - if only he had the million dollar brain to go along with his arm. He would have been the best of all time, no question about it with his arm ability.

Wait I'm not understanding here are we looking at "stats"or QB's that can win big games when it counts.

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
Define big games when it counts? Eli Manning is a great example, a two time SB winner who has had plenty of clutch games and moments (including twice on the biggest stage) yet has wasted his last 6 years because the team surrounded him with subpar talent.

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
Exactly my point ,so why should the stats matter as much,I thought Championships ...Super Bowls are what matter? Rivers is a great example plenty of stats but no Super Bowl,think he would trade ,I do.

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
As is Brees but as someone else pointed out look at the talent they get to work with.

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
Part of the discussion, if this is still referencing AS's age is that his contract and extension is team friendly enough to let us put pieces around him and on the defense. There is no reason, with our oline, that he shouldn't stay healthy for the next 4-5 years barring a freak injury or wild hit.

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
I’d take both of them a few years ago vs now, they’re still good but past peak |

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
Yeah until he played a prime time game or until Redskins really needed a win to stay alive. Or even worse when they played a cruical division game especially when they played Dallas.

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
Kirk was great in the first 3 Qtrs, then the 4th came. Other than that Tampa game which was against a bad team, he didn't rally us from behind much. The ATL OT game was bad, all of those Giants games were bad.. And yes u made the best point of them all DALLAS, he couldn't beat them.. (JAY AS WELL). When I saw Kirk's overall record against the Giants and Boys I was ok with moving on.

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
As we know we owned prime time before Kirk, thankfully we can get back to that now that he’s gone. We should also dominate the division again.
