Who is Kirk Cousins?

[JoeRedskin]

This sums up my feelings on Cousins pretty much exactly:

I can’t say that Kirk Cousins was bad last night; I also can’t say he was good. He had a couple nice throws; the touchdown to Jackson, a pass over the middle on third down to Garcon (a bit behind, but he stood in the pocket well). The one thing I think we’ve learned with Cousins is that he’s like a lot of quarterbacks in the NFL: dependent on those around him. That means some games he’ll look solid and other games he leaves you wanting, and needing, more. He’s not going to get hot over the next four games and lead a division title run just with his arm. I think the Redskins know this -- and I think Cousins knows this as well. Cousins remains the best option right now for Washington at quarterback; no NFL person would tell you otherwise. His strength has been his efficiency, but to win consistently that way you need more from other parts, notably the run game. I do like that he led scoring drives at the end of the half and the game.
