Who is Kirk Cousins?

Kirk doesn't have a noodle arm, but his arm strength isn't towards the top either. No one doubts his ability to take a 5-7 step drop and heave the ball downfield to an open D-Jax. We've seen him do it.





But there are other routes, especially crossing patterns where the QB has to get the ball to the WR with a lot of zip not because it is a deep pass but because of the route, and the coverage and the fact that the catch will be made with the WR running towards the sideline with little room to get feet down after the ball hits his hands.





He simply doesn't have the zip on his throws that elite arm-strength QB's do. It doesn't negate everything else about him it's just simply an observation.

Watch Joe Montana run the west coast offense.. Strong arm is overrated.

Not to mention Montana was surrounded by hof talent on both sides of the ball. Amazing what personnel in a TEAM sport will do. If Joe Montana was getting his first crack at starting with last years or this years Skins team we would have a "who is Joe Montana" thread.

SM will benefit KC in the off season in the same way. It will be fun to see the change.......
