Cousins to start 2015 Season

TheMalcolmConnection · 09-16-2015, 01:04 PM

Just ready to move on. Hopefully to an AFC team.

Personally, I think Cousins has just enough to get it done for us the rest of the year and at least compete for a starting job here if the coaching change happens.

Griffin who?
Get him outa here.
I'm dreaming rally hard that Cousins can win us 7 or 8 games.
Because if he does he may be viewed as being legit, which means we can focus our future draft picks on non QBs.
We need a real tight end.

I think everyone wants Kirk to play well and to win. I hope he does because that will be the best case scenario. But, I'm not going to shy away from discussing other scenarios nor expressing a differing opinion. I didn't expect that needed to be stated. But since people in this thread are talking about and around me I wanted to address it all one time. People in this thread like to point fingers and wish this thread closed or lament the conversation centered upon Griffin or J or whatever else...yet they actively participate or even push the conversations further. Heck, over the past few pages there has been non-Griffin/J-Gruden discussion and the people complaining loudest about the lack are the ones hypocritically participating in the RGIII based discussions.

I'm gonna re-state my thoughts from earlier in an effort to move on:

Kirk has good NFL arm talent but Kirk might believe in arm a little too much.
He doesn't have the high turnover % by accident.

But when Kirk is humming and the playcalling is on point? I dare say Kirk can look like Drew Brees (one of my favorite QBs in the league). I can tell by the playcalling that Jay/McVay have a lot faith in Kirk's ability but sometimes they too are culpable in his failures by not protecting him with the run and putting too much on his shoulders via the passing game.

Most people either don't know or ignore the fact that I said Griffin should have been cut at the end of the season prior to training camp. But I'm always gonna challenge statements that I think are inaccurate/incorrect and seek clarification. And just because I thought Griffin should have been cut doesn't mean I'm gonna agree with bandwagon echo chamber bashing.

At the end of the day I don't care who the QB is nor the style of football....provided we win.

McLovin isn't even close to be done with the roster.

Tired of all the new coach talk. 18 games into our other new coach. After firing the other new coach after 2 seasons. Can we stop with the new coaches and actually give a guy a but to build and form in his image? Instead of being given a project QB and 80% of Shanahan roster.

Kirks ride.

Kirk Cousins has a perfectly reasonable explanation for why he drives a 15-year-old conversion van to work | For The Win

Kirk is starting to sound like a younger Uncle Rico.

I really don't care. Dude needs wins not stories about driving his grandfathers car. I read it. Last quote from him really is the point.

Inconsistency can hurt a roster. Turnover for the sake of turnover is bad for any organization.

Ultimately for me? All bets are off the table now that we have a legitimate GM and it isn't Snyder making the call. I tend to be confident in the GM we have and whatever direction he wants to go.

To be honest, the way this team's DNA has seemed to drastically changed in one offseason (totally ignoring the actual W/L column that is) makes me think this is more Scot's team than Gruden's team at this point.
