The FINAL Kirk Cousins Saga thread. 5.0

[Dan73]

A couple of interesting articles on Cousins.

A look at what's happening around the*New York Jets:

1. Struggles against top competition:*The Jets' anticipated pursuit of*Kirk Cousins*is a hot-button issue among fans in New York. Should they shell out $30 million a year for the prospective free agent or try to find their quarterback in the draft? Both sides can make compelling arguments, but here's a factoid that might provide some clarity for those on the fence:

During his time with the*Washington Redskins, Cousins' starting record against winning teams is 4-19 (based on their opponents' final record).

Yes, 4-19.

Cousins has cleaned up against losing teams (19-9-1) and has fared OK against .500 clubs (3-2), resulting in an overall record of 26-30-1 in the regular season. He is 0-1 in the playoffs.

nish Mehta of the New York Daily News reports*the Jets are not planning a history-making contract offer that would include $60M in the first year.*This was recently suggested, but Mehta reports the franchise is not prepared to wildly overspend to land the 29-year-old quarterback.

However, sources informed Mehta the Jets would “absolutely love” to add Cousins. But they won’t be radically changing the NFL landscape by offering the passer a fully guaranteed deal.
