The Wilson Blueprint

He's slightly above being just a guy because he can accumulate yards and stats but he doesn't put the team in the position to win games because of his negatives. Just like some people were convinced that being turnover prone could be 'coached out' of Rex, it's the same thing here, just a younger version. It's who he was in college and so far, who he is as a pro. Unless we have a top 3 defense who can offset the turnovers, you can't win with a QB like Cousins.

Once Griffin is healthy, he will be the unquestioned starter, growing pains and all because he gives the team the best chance to win.

Outstanding post.
