Griffin Out For Undetermined Time, It's Cousins Time

[over the mountain]

Griffin mostly did a good job anticipating where pressure was coming from, coaches say, and making adjustments. It’s an area Cousins is still adapting to as one sack revealed Sunday when the Jaguars sent an overload to the Redskins’ right. Cousins didn’t see it, was sacked and the Redskins were taken out of field-goal range. Coaches say Cousins must improve here, but for the most part they feel that even if this is the case he usually knows where to go and what to do. It'll be a key against Philadelphia on Sunday.


How Kirk Cousins differs from RG III - Washington Redskins Blog - ESPN

a good write up by Keim of what cousins and rg3 do well and differently. nothing unknown to anyone here but i did quote the top paragraph bc this is the 2nd time i have heard RG3 does well with pre-snap reads and cousins needs to improve. when i see cousins, i see him calling out the mike and being a lot more vocal at the line pre-snap vs RG3 who seems to never shift protection and seems oblivious (sometimes) to clear blitzes.
