MAYBE He is not all that and the Skins front office don't want to be saddled to a overpaid underachiever for next 5 years.. His stats could be a result of the system ..he had best WR group in league..top TE..good if not great pass protection..very good play calling( Mcvay ended up head coach..that tells you something) remember we missed the playoffs this year . My gut Tells me Cousins is a good QB in the right system but I don't believe he will ever be the guy that can carry the team to the big dance..( Brady,Rogers,Newton,Ryan,Brees,Carr,Flaco,Manning, Wilson,Big Ben..Im not sure Cousins is near that group.) lets just see what happens ..the only thing that would really bother me is Getting Romo or Cutler..If Colt has to be the QB next year and we can win 8-9 games then so be it.

1st in the league in total air yard, 3rd in the league in yards/attemp... This is not a system QB, this is at minimum a very good QB. Alex Smith is a system QB, the team is efficient because of the system, and he manages the game.

KC is doing more than that.

We have the best WR group in the league? What part of it belongs to Cousins? Desean is fast but made of glass and aging, I love Garçon but he's no Antonio Brown or Anthony Hopkins (that young man is making wonders with shitty QBs), Crowder is a really promising WR... But IMO, apart from Jordan Reed when healthy, we have good players, no great amazing receivers.

Barring any huge improvement both on defense and in the running game, we are NOT winning 8-9 games with Colt McCoy at QB.

Agreed, we would be lucky to win five with Colt. Plus who is he throwing the ball too? Pierre and DJax wouldnt want to come back to catch balls from Colt. Plus the dude has a noodle arm and underthrows guys on 35 yard "bombs"

True. That noodle arm is what keeps him from being a viable option as a starter.

Colt McCoy is a backup at best! If we let kirk go and start CM, I really wont care about wins next yr
