Listening to Mike Robinson from nfl network, said that at looking at tape that jumped out at him as the main cause of the int. Said the Cousins read and throw were fine for that situation. Said the combination of the poor oline play and the let down by the WR reason for that loss and everybody wants to talk Kirk Cousins? I guess folks are giving passes to the oline now?

^^ video of the int.

Immediate pressure came from blitzing OLB #54, who came in untouched as trent was engaged with the DE.

#44 runs a simple stunt and is able to squeeze through the middle of Long and Lich.

Credit to the Falcons D coach for dialing up a look I assume the skins had not seen bc our entire left side were certainly caught off guard.

I was too hard on kirk for this int. he did kinda throw it blind but it wasnt a full blown panic throw like i was initially thinking it was. Kirk actually had some time to see the field.

Kirk does stare down Grant the entire time.

Kirk doesnt seem to realize the OLB #54 is blitzing leaving the TE wide open running a seam route which ends up being the same dig route that grant runs.

it appears like the outside WR on trips right was wide open on a cross.

soo frustrating.

there were guys open all over the field.

why didnt kirk recognize that the trips right had coverage 10 yards from the LOS?

wouldnt that be the perfect hot route?

why stare down grant?

i think ive posted more about this 1 int than any int ever. i need to let it go. sorry for the long rambling post.
