Then between the draft and the $36 mill upgrade the OL, WR, and defense side of the ball?
If Robert can't outscore his own defense, Kirk won't be able to either.

Robert's also running for his life and sometimes getting nailed a second after receiving the snap. I don't think Kirk is any quicker or a better escape artist.

As great as this line seems to be at run blocking, they're as equally bad at pass protection. It doesn't make sense, but I don't think any QB could succeed behind Tyler Polumbus and this line.


If Shanahan's real objective here is keeping a young QB and team asset healthy as the team struggles, we should be playing Rex Grossman the rest of the way.

I bet we'll see him before the year is over, probably when Polumbus lets Osi Umenyiora run right past him and concusses Kirk this week.

Agreed. I mean he's still playing behind the same bad offensive line, and we still have the same defense and special teams...

Probably 0-3, but they may squeak out a win against Dallas since their D is just as bad...or worse.

Re: Kirk Cousins Expected To Start Sunday

My opinion is just whatever at this point. Good thing is RG3 will be healthy next year and this moves assures Shanny will be fired.

Going forward, the QB position is nothing but a strength and the least of my worries.

I dont know if im gonna quit watching Skins football like I did doing the Zorn era, but its on the table. Ill have to watch some of the Cowboys game at least.

Re: Kirk Cousins Expected To Start Sunday

The Redskins games just got "Flexed" off my schedule for the rest of the year. I didn't make my fantasy football league playoffs and the Skins suck, so my Sunday afternoons have just become 'open".

Have a great Holiday season everyone, the Redskins won't be, but at least I won't have to watch them.
