Cousins 3.0, he's going to sign the franchise tag

I think he just wants a team to commit to him and show him the love. If that's the Redskins then he'll happily take it. But that would take a major shift in behavior from the front office.

But Matty's right, what's done is done and all we can do now is focus on this season. I like how the defense is improved and I could see a good season coming as long as the offense figures out how to keep it rolling with the changes at receiver. I like our chances for a good year, actually. 16 games (plus playoffs?) is an eternity in the NFL, it's plenty of time things to turn positively between the Skins and Cousins. It's also plenty of time for things to sour, but I'm a glass half full guy.

Better running game, better defensive front, better red zone play? 10-6 is quite possible in my mind.
