Kirk Cousins 24/7 thread

This. Pretty much how I feel.

Which highlights the the coaching issues even more...why are we not trying to run the ball and preparing the game plan if cousins is not on? If cousins is off we shouldn't be throwing it more...makes no sense

Cousins has been my very favorite redskins QB in a long time, but even he is no Tom Brady...

I never said Big Cuz was another Tom Brady. I pointed out how even an all time great needed help from his run game and defense when he was getting his feet wet.

So if Tom Brady, one of the top three greatest QBs of all time, needed help when he got started we can't fault Kirk Cousins because he's not a one man army and needs help, like 99% of all field generals.

Some QB's are steady, and some QB's are Joe Flacco.

As bad as the first 3 games have looked, Kirk's rankings on F.O. are encouraging and a good sign in my opinion:

FOOTBALL OUTSIDERS: Innovative Statistics, Intelligent Analysis | QUARTERBACKS 2016

Kirk is 13th in DYAR and 15th in DVOA. He is ahead of some pretty notable QBs and has looked like dog crap.

If, and it's a big if, our redzone efficiency was a little bit better it would be a much different narrative.

This is something they can improve with personnel we have by not committing stupid penalties and calling fades over and over.

Drive stats. The offense will be top tier if Jay and McVay and Kirk can get their crap together in the red zone.

The last 3 games.
6 tds to 2 ints and has a great completion %. Time to pay the man IMO. Yes he throws some ints but you have to take chances in order to get big plays.

I agree pay him. He is on pace for 4500 yards, 24 TD, and 16 INT.

At the beginning of the season, we all predicted we would be 2 - 2 after the first four. We are still on pace to 9 - 7 or 10 - 6.

Yep 2-2 isn't bad and we really should be 3-1. Overall kirk is doing fine. He'll have around 26 tds again and 13 or so ints.. Not bad at all

Kirk has silently had an incredible couple of weeks. Last year he didn't round into form until mid season. Hopefully this year its smooth sailing from here on out!

I'm not worried about Kirk, I'm worried about the Run game. Kirk is a good QB and he will keep getting better. Brees wasn't great until like year 4 or 5. Also Kirk's INTs were low last yr and has only had 2 in the past 3 weeks

[htownskinfan]

You guys are killing me that say pay him after 4 weeks
Stats dont mean shit,RG3 had good stats.He had another costly int Sunday that gave Cleveland an easy TD that luckily the team was able to overcome by getting some turnovers in the 4th,and it's a good thing because our defense wasnt stopping the Browns without those turnovers.
Kirk's problem has been consistency,how bout we hold off for a while before saying pay the man.

I agree about holding off on any contract negotiations until we see more, however RG-3 has nothing to do with it. He never, ever had the accuracy or quick release that KC has demonstrated.
