He had very little playing time in his first three years, as I am sure you'd agree. I also didn't count the initial seasons of Brees or Brady in the statistics above for the same reason.
With all due respect, for the sake of accuracy, 2012 was Cousin's 1st year, not 2013. I don't think you can count the 2013 season as a "chance" any more than 2012, since Shanahan's decision was purportedly done to protect Griffin in a lost season rather than seeing what he had in Kirk.
Again I focused on last season as the first in which there was an extended look (even though that only amounted to about 1/3 of the season).
And if you don't think Kirk needs a chance this season, what exactly do you have in mind for the QB position?
