And Does it bother you guys that Cousins seems like he feels he has been done wrong..20 million dollars last year and 24 million this year..Why is he complaining?? 44 million for 32 games and he has got sour grapes..I don't get it..they have paid the man!! his little bitty EGO has been hurt..somebody pat him on the head and tell him how great he is...GROW UP COUSINS and quit whining..you have got paid! You blew it in our last game and cost us playoffs and for that you get 44 million..Im not sure i want him on the team anymore..go on to San Fran and lose your ass for the next 4 years..Kyle is going to fall on his face as a head coach..just like Norv Turner ..the only thing i am hoping for is we get compensation for him ..at least a number 1 and send him packing..The redskins with colt will win twice as many games as 69ers with Kirk..

That was was my first thought too, however all of next year every time he's on the field he's effectively auditioning for his next gig. Just on a pure selfish level he has a lot of motivation to play well. I think he really wants to show the world that he's the real deal. So I'll take him for one more year even if it's not permanent.
