Re: Cousins Saga 4.0. Is he done in DC?
I really want to be talking something else than KC... BUT:
On yesterday's show, Cooley said he was almost 100% sure that if we go 11-5 and win at least one playoff game, KC signs a great offer from the Redskins without even going through the transition tag scenario. Kirk said he "needed more time", so if our D performs well and we WIN, (which to me is a real possibility, I don't think they were that far from being efficient, big part of it was bad coaching, and we added talent) Cooley thinks that's all the "time" he'd be needing to stay. What do you think?

However there's still the nagging thought in the back of my mind, we heard from "sources close to Cousins" that he doesn't want to sign with the Skins and wants to reunite with Kyle. But next February he'll take stock. He'll contemplate whether DC is a better spot or if others are. If like you say we have a much improved defense, he's still well protected behind our good line, and he believes Gruden suits him as a play caller, he will take that into account. That and the QB needy teams may all be crappy options at that point. If we show any semblance of Redskins drama then he'll bail.

Re: Cousins Saga 4.0. Is he done in DC?
Way too early to speculate. I find it hard to believe his master plan was to collect tag money for 2-3 years and then leave. If it was really so terrible here for him he could have forced a trade a long time ago.
The NFL is basically a year to year league anyway. This route he's taking is definitely unconventional but more players could start to follow suit in a push to bring fully guaranteed contracts in the next CBA. |

Re: Cousins Saga 4.0. Is he done in DC?
Feels like people will always want more no matter what he does. Remember when it was the INT issue, or he couldn't beat a winning team? I thought the win over GB was pretty big last year, out dueling Rodgers in prime time. And he's already played plenty of games with DJ out injured.

But he's asking for a ton of money and/or guarantees so I think its fair to want to see him improve in situational football, ie red zone, big games, etc. Hopefully the team plays well and we sign him for like 5 years at 25 per, with the first 3 fully guaranteed.

My opinion is Kurt is most likely leaving 80%-20%. Not looking good folks.

Re: Cousins Saga 4.0. Is he done in DC?
QB, too much credit, too much blame. That'll never change. I'm excited to see our defense. Really hope Fabian M. is ready to go before week 1.

Re: Cousins Saga 4.0. Is he done in DC?
I think its 50/50 he will be gone next year.
However....both sides have six months to say the wrong thing that will get the other sides all butt hurt. More or less inevitable......

Re: Cousins Saga 4.0. Is he done in DC?
I can't wait for the preseason when we'll hear what studs McCoy and Sudfeld are and how we could trade KC for a ham sandwich and be ok.
