Re: Who is Kirk Cousins?

Santana Moss: RGIII needs a second chance somewhere else

Moss also discussed Cousins, including the occasional comparisons to Chad Pennington, another quarterback Moss played with. The receiver said Cousins’s arm might be stronger than Pennington’s, but that Pennington accomplished too much to be compared with a first-year starter.

“But Kirk can be that guy. Kirk can be great,” Moss said. “And like I said years before, I see so much potential in those guys, and it just was sad that those guys both was young and had to be under each other. You can’t learn from nobody. It’s hard to just sit there.”

Moss also he thought Cousins sometimes tried to do too much early in his career to live up to Griffin’s example.

“I could be wrong…but at times [it seemed like] Kirk would say ‘I’m gonna muscle this ball in there because Robert muscled that in there.’ And Robert has that arm, and you’d [think] no, that ain’t Kirk’s style, don’t throw that Kirk. And we would say that in practice to each other. We never said that to him, but we knew the pressure. Kirk was trying to be on that field, so he was going to do things — I’m going to take a chance, even though I know my arm might not be as strong as his, I’m going to take a chance. But if you watch him play his game, he’s the best at playing his game.”

“Griffin can be a quarterback in this league,” Moss said. “Honestly. I think he’s due a second chance somewhere. I can’t sit here and tell you if it’s here, because I feel like sometimes you need to get away. You need to leave [a place] where it just seems like it’s done. But I think he needs a second chance, and I just think he’s got to get in an offense like the first year, and be able to do special things.
pretty interesting piece that should give everybody a slightly different perspective
