Cousins Open to Trade.

You want a younng QB with potential, there are others without the history aka baggage of Cousins. I said Schaub was young for a back up QB. You normally have older vets as back up QBs, not a young starter playing behind another young starter (for those who think Cousins is a starter).

Really? I don't see any QB controversy at all. RGIII is the starter, period, and everyone knows that.

1. RG3 shouldn't worry about Cousins.
2. Cousins has been nothing but a class act since he's been here
3. Why do you hate Cousins so much?
4. Are you RG2? ...aka RG3's dad? ...Rebecca..aka RG3's wife?

1. RG3 don't need people such as yourself wanting Cousins to get his "chance" at RG3's expense. We need to develope our starter, Cousins needs playing time to develop as well. One stays one goes. RG3 = three number one draft picks, so he stays.


2. Cousins has been a class act yet Schefter finds a way to take a jab a RG3 via Cousins "cute puppy qualities". Tebow is a class act but the media uses him to cause trouble. Same with Cousins. Sally Jenkins future quote "RG3 threw an interception why is Cousins on the sideline?". We don't need that . Since Cousins is such a class act I want him to have his "opportunity". RG3 is the starter no opportunity here.

3. I don't hate Cousins the person. I hate Cousins the quarterback. UGGGHHH super ugly!

4. Are you Sally Jenkins boy toy?

FYI...for the sake of the franchise, I do hope Griffin turns out to be what we all want him to be. And Jenkins isn't my type. Lol...

Don't know how long you have been following the NFL, but the back up quarterback is usually hugely popular when the starter is struggling even if that back up hasn't played well before when given a chance. Cousins isn't the problem, change him out and if Griffin struggles again people will be calling for whomever took Cousins place.

If we had JJ Watt on our team would you keep Ryan Kerrigan as a back up because he "has value as a back up"?
Hell no ....you trade his narrow ass to get bodies for a position that doesn't have a real starter.
We need more draft picks....period.
I don't know about you guys but I'm planning on Griffin playing all 16 games next year.

The difference is that the QB is the most important position on the field and if the starter goes down a good back up is a must, not so much with a DE.

I'm glad you are planning on RG3 playing all 16 games but a wise mand once told me to expect the best but plan for the worst. RG3 not playing in all 16 games might not be the worst case scenario (him not being able to run the offense is) and the Skins need to expect the best but plan for the worst.

Well of course Cousins wants to start. So does Brandon Jenkins. So does Reed Doughty. Having your backups want to start is a GOOD thing and a normal thing. Rex wants to start - is he creating a QB controversy too?

Cousins' desire to start is not in any way a distracting QB controversy.

It's good for every postion up for compettition. For the Redskins starting QB is not a competition. Cousins said he feels he has earned his chance to start. He felt like he was going to get a competition at QB. (Shannhan told him that, too bad). Let him go and be happy, because he earned the right to start from his 3 starts at the end of the season. I am paraphrasing Cousins. Don't need RG3 looking over his shoulder every time he throws a pick. Bring in a Derek Anderson type back up QB and let's build this team. Cousins only reminds me of Shannahan anyway.


Don'tt underestimate the words coming out of Cousins mouth. With Schecter and Sally as his bookend bullhorns, he will make waves.
