Of course, there's also the matter of Bruce Allen calling Cousins "Curt" for the entire time Kirk was here. If my employer did that to me, it would tend to make me feel disrespected.

Yeah, Allen is definitely a dickfuck, and that's one of the number one examples.

I think he did that once, and basically after KC said he wasn't going to negotiate.

no one defends the FO on this, but KC had every opportunity to be the qb for the Skins Fans and Skins team and he didn't step up to it.

Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish.

Kirk, it's been real, but...

He is a good QB but we cannot afford to spend the ranch on him. I was hoping he went to the Browns so I can still root for him.

Bruce Allen.

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
 

Best QB we've had in a while but good riddance. You made a lot of money here, had your party w/ the fans after the season, put on a phony smile all while knowing you were leaving. Don't let the door hit ya on the way out.

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
 

Good ridance. Self serving douce. Football is a team game. Players on kurts team said he was in it for himself. We will never win a championship with players who care more about themselves than winning. A locker room united is more important than stats and plyer ratings. The skins management did enough to keep kurt happy if he was mature enough to be a professional. BTW several players on alex smith's team lamented his loss. Welcome alex. We will win more games next year.

It's a shame that it had to end like this. Only the Skins could F up a good situation so badly.

Bruce Allen...often wrong but never in doubt...tried to bully you off the poker table with his pocket 3s. But you were patient and in the end you took his entire stack.

Best of luck Kirk, I'll be cheering for you.

Well said!

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
 

I'm seeing a lot of bitterness in this thread, but I guess that's the way ugly divorces go.

For me, 24-0 Bucs will be one of my favorite highlights of watching the Redskins, and we have Kirk to thank for that. Did he bring us back to dominance? No, but he's the first Redskins quarterback in 25 years to bring us back to respectability. If you want to give Gruden/Allen the credit for that, do it. As much as Kirk owes his "success" (air-quotes because half of you act like Kirk was an overrated bum) to Gruden/McVay/etc., they owe equal credit to him, for having some success on the field. Team sport gents.

True. All I think we are saying though is there are a good 15 QBs in the league they could have done the same or better with.

I mean look at what McVay did with Goff.

Kirk was good. But I’m not sure we’re any worse today, and after free agency I think we’ll be better.

That's my stance. I would've been happy if the 'skins were able to sign Cousins to a long term deal. I loved Kirk Cousins. I loved what he brought to the team. But, he's not the elite quarterback the sports world is trying to make him out to be. I'm hearing things like, "Kirk Cousins will take a last place team and turn them into a first place team. Kirk Cousins will take a mediocre team and turn them into a Super Bowl team." There's been absolutely no evidence of that. Kirk has made the 'skins a better team, but he's not turned them into a playoff contending team nor a Super Bowl team. He requires a stacked team, he's not Tom Brady.
