Undefeated at 4-0? Cousins putting up elite numbers?



Actually I'd expect best case scenario we do go 3-1, Cousins looks great like he did against Cleveland. If RG3 isn't 100%, let Cousins start longer. After last season nobody is still starting Cousins over a healthy RG3. So what's the problem?

More realistically, we go 1-2 or 2-1. We don't risk further injury to RG3. We aren't talking now about tanking the season, just getting to 2-2 or 3-1 til we can get RG3 back.

I know you're smarter than that "controversy" thinking SS, just laughing at the idea put out there that Shanny would be against Cousins emerging as a bona-fide starting QB, or us going undefeated. Nobody could be that stupid.

Imagines Belichick thinking "Damn better hold back playcalling with this 6th rounder Brady, can't make a controversy with him and Bledsoe". Or Vermiel thinking "All this winning with Warner is so bad! What we will do when Trent Green comes back?" I don't think it would happen, but seriously if Cousins suddenly became the next Tom Brady, what the hell would be our problem?
