Cousins 3.0, he's going to sign the franchise tag

He says its not all about the money, we offer him a fortune, he says no. Doesn't matter what happened initially, he was recently offered a more than fair contract and he said no. So he's either full of shit and/or doesn't want to play here. He's not good enough to be worth the headache. It's going to be another year of this shit and what will change? Clearly the ship of reasonableness has sailed on both sides. Time to move on.

Jay Gruden has to be fucking livid at everyone. His whole season is going to be the same constant questions over and over.

Another question, if after the best offer Skins made, did Cousins even make a counter offer. Like what the fuck does he want? I want to here the numbers.

It stinks we don't get our franchise QB, but then again he might not have been either. The guy was great in between the 20s like people say, but couldn't punch it in if the moved the ball within the red zone. Hell, JC was much better in the red zone than Kirk. The ending to the 2016 season was the exact opposite of what happened in 2015, and that didn't help Kirk's case for the big bucks. But I suspect that he wanted to leave all along and unless the FO offered him insane over the top of what Carr got $$$$$$, he was going to turn it down. A poster from NFL.com said it best a few days ago, Skins fans are in a bad way as we basically have to hope the Skins suck for us to retain him. Not sure that is what we as fans want. Better to just let him go and move on.

Can't blame the Skins at all, but they have themselves to blame for losing Kirk. Draft the kid out of Wyoming if you can and move on. Sudfeld has promise, but still is a project for now. I wonder if the Skins will start Sudfeld, bench Kirk, and be done with it. We can't Suck for Luck, but we can get the kid from USC or Wyoming(just kidding). I would laugh my ass off if they started Sudfeld and he actually lit it up!!!!!!!!!! Anything is possible at this point. At this point you just have to come to the conclusion that Kirk simply wants to leave the zoo, while the FO doesn't think the guy is worth getting into the possible salary cap red zone for. The FO messed up and Cousins played his hand wonderfully.

Not to mention the team may blow up if KC leaves. Pryor may leave given no QB, and if we suck w/o Cousins - Gruden will have had a lukewarm 5-6 years and may be forced out as well. Put that together with a bunch of one year FA's this year --> we could be looking a lot different in two years..

If that happens I will step back from the Skins and the NFL in general. I won't drop the team or the NFL totally of course, but the roller coaster that is the Snyder owned Skins, well the ride is getting rather dated. Skins fans need to WTFU and start boycotting going to games, buying crap, etc. The Lions fans did it and the ownership took notice. They aren't winning any SBs in the near future, but at least they seem to have a plan and are at least trying to build a winner. A potential blowup with a new QB, a new HC, and of course a new system just means starting over from scratch again, which seems to be Dan's formula for keeping things interesting. People need to quit drinking the Kool Aid if your scenario becomes a reality. It is just getting old and leaves a stale taste in one's mouth.

Guys ...The Ravens won a super bowl with Trent Dilfer! need I say more.

[Chico23231]

Oh well...so let's go win a Super Bowl.

[sdskinsfan2001]

Whatever the worst possible scenario is, that's what you should guess will happen to the Redskins or that's how they'll handle a situation.

This is so frustrating. Now we have to play a whole season with a lame duck QB that isn't even going to try to play well for anyone besides himself. How do you root for the Redskins and not root for the QB? Can we become a Wild-Cat team lol? All Wild-Cat and defense.

[sdskinsfan2001]

You think if we go 10-6 and win a playoff game that Snyder would fire Allen to re- kindle any chance of resigning Kirk "Kurt" Cousins? That would be the ultimate irony.

[skinsfan69]

I think everyone (including myself) needs to calm down. I don't think Cousins hates being a Redskin. I just think he's going to dictate to the Redskins and not vice versa. He probably doesn't trust Allen and Snyder. Would any of you? He's been through all the nonsense. We've seen how they treated Scot. What if we have a bad year and Gruden is blown outta here? He's seen so much bullshit from the Redskins that he probably feels comfortable going year to year and I really don't blame him. The Redskins did this to themselves and KC is taking full advantage of the situation.

Bush league move by the team releasing details about their offer and basically trying to turn the fans against Cousins. I won't blame him at all if he walks next year.

I have defend BA in the past, that was bad.

To be honest I am kind of over this team.

Folks this is Dan Snyder, your owner

Duh. Deep in our guts, we all know this to be true. That's why I call BA "Smithers".
