Thoughts on Cousins

Posted this in the NFL Draft Forum but seems fitting for this as well 

 

“Is there any team is recent history that has been “teased” more with thinking they have their guy at QB the last 6-7 years than the Redskins?

I mean RG3 has a good rookie season and looks promising, then gets hurt and is never the same....in steps Cousins who you think could maybe be a franchise guy, puts up good numbers year after year, but never takes you over the top or beats legit teams in prime time.....then trade for Alex Smith who is good enough to keep you around .500 to 10-6 year in and year out only for him to have a freak injury....then trade for Keemun who you know won’t be the guy but at that point you’re  desperate and need someone to take snaps besides McCoy

I could easily see Synder thinking enough is enough and trading up for the QB they like”

At some point if you're an actual great player your greatness should be able to mitigate and cover up some of the flaws on your team. You don't pay someone Cousins money to still need a great o-line for him to function properly

Exactly.

Cousins always puts up really good stats.  He did that when he was a member of the Redskins.  So he has enough help to put up top tier stats, but when they lose games he needs the team around him to be improved.  Oh, okay.
