Who is Kirk Cousins?

My only point I was trying to make was that the offense itself as far as the style and plays we ran looked familiar, it was pretty par for the course as far as the play-calling itself. The team just happened to execute a hell of a lot better than usual, and for the entire game.

Furthermore when they go back up against a better defense (this coming up game vs. Carolina for example) that could go back to stopping or at least minimizing a lot of the stuff that seemed to work so easily and flawlessly against New Orleans, then I think it will be fair to bring up a lot of the questions previously asked about Cousins and the offense itself.

I was mostly annoyed by the way 30gut dismissed Kirk's outstanding performance against NO.

As for your comments, what if Kirk plays well against Carolina and we beat an undefeated team? Do you think you might be ready to jump on the KC bandwagon at that time?

If by "bandwagon" you mean I want him to succeed and be "the guy" then yes. It's never been any other way. I've always just been skeptical or anointing him too early, too soon.

Maybe it has been the way the franchise's recent (20 years and counting now?) QB situation. I've experienced watching so many young QB's who have had up and downs and we all desperately tried to see the good only in them in hopes of them eventually developing into a franchise QB.

I am definitely ready to admit that as of right now Cousins looks better than anything I've ever seen out of guys like Campbell, Ramsey, Shuler, Frerotte etc etc etc etc.....(no need to name the entire list).

I like what I see from Cousins right now, I think for me it's always been more of a "wait and see" wanting to get a more complete picture of what kind of QB Cousins is before the organization commits real money and investment into him.
