Kirk Cousins 365 thread

[CRedskinsRule]

I believe when the contract pressure kicked in, that is when he struggled. I don't think it was game related. Makes me think giving him a long term contract is the only and best way to go.

Well if you can't handle "contract" pressure he isn't going to handle "playoff" pressure. Point is moot anyways we need to sign the guy.

What overshadows any doubts you have about him or the $$$ to get him is there is literally no one else that is available that is better then him now or in the near future.

I actually think he handles playoff type pressure - it's football - see the dallas game, or cleveland game in 2012.

When contract talks get inside your head it can take your focus off your work. That's all I mean.

If i was building a con and pro list of him handling extreme pressure would be on the con side. I still believe the pro's outweigh the con's when evaluating him.

I guess the 2 body of works that stand out for me when thinking of him and pressure are the NYG game and the CAR. If GB game KC should up to one of those games we at least have had one more game this season.

Also you can take some pressure off him with getting the defense to at least middle of the pack and keeping good weapons on offense around KC. I think a good RB would also go a long way in helping KC.

That's some good info there. Sounds like another argument in Kirk's favor. Thanks for sharing.

The Truth About Kirk Cousins’ 2016 Season | ESPN 980

Good Link.

Kirk did face the toughest defenses overall compared to any OTHER QB in the NFL this year.

He did that and still performed BETTER this year then he did last year.

Pay the Man. His celing is unknown and he continues to improve. You have to sign this rising star at this point.

He's the next brees, I know I've beat a dead horse with that comparison but it's true. He'll throw some picks like drew does but 80% of the time he'll have 3 tds to 1 int.

Hummmm....actually that is a very apt comparison!

I completely agree with you!

I was about to post about this, listening to friday Cooley and Kevin show (without Cooley), there's a segment where Kevin was joined by Al Galdi, they talk about the stats mentioned in your link.

Best in the league in air yards (total yards minus yards after the catch), 3rd in the league in yards per pass attempt...

Cooley said the other day the reason why the Redskins are reluctant to pay KC big money for a long term deal is none of the decision-makers were part of a team with high priced QB before...

If this is true they need to wake the F up to the reality of this league and realize the odds of finding a better QB than KC in the draft or in FA are like at best 1 out of 15, imo.

Ok he had a bad game against the giants... but so did the whole offense! Trent Williams may have had his worst game ever that week, should we tag and trade him too?

By the way, did you look at KC in the pro bowl skill challenge? In the best hands drill he looked like the best QB out there, precisely on point on every throw.

[TheMalcolmConnection]

It also could be his agent (AND the Redskins) are waiting to see how the QB FA market shakes out. If someone signs another Osweiler-like deal this year, Cousins will probably ask a bit more.

[skinsfan69]

At some point this has to come to some kind of resolution. You can not put your starting on another one year deal.

I normally don't watch the Pro Bowl, but I was intrigued to see how Kirk Cousins would fair, and he balled out. Cousins definitely took it seriously, and darn near brought the NFC back to tie. Ol' Graham should have caught that pass in the end zone!

I believe part of it was him wanting to show he's a Pro Bowler and deserves to get paid. If he has another great year next year, Cousins might become a permanent fixture in the Pro Bowl.

I'm with the crowd that says pay the man. Hopefully this is the last week to speculate and that we'll hear something by next week.
