I can tell you that the only reason you're facing opposition from this guy is because he's a bitter Skins fan who is stuck with nothing at QB currently and maybe Haskins as their QB of the future. I was concerned with Kirk's struggles too, but I've been saying forever that this offensive line is the real problem with the team and I think these last few weeks have proven that point to be correct I told him and I'll tell you the same thing, Cousins wasn't getting 84 million guaranteed if it came down to me. So I'm not bitter at all. As I consistency have said, If he can't get you to were Keenum got you this will prove my point. I would've traded Cousins in the 2017 draft to San Fran for the #2 pick and came out of that draft with Deshawn Watson and Jonathon Allen as my 2017 1st round picks. The offer I would've offered Cousins to stay is 50 million guranteed with a chance to earn 70 million in 5 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are these available Super Bowl quarterbacks? I think Cousins gives us a better chance than Keenum. The jury is out on Bridgewater but there's no guarantee he would have been any better last year. Who would we drafted at 30? Jackson? Apparently he's a running back player QB. You keep dodging my point about this being a team game Yet we all know who gets the credit when teams Win, the QB. Brady didn't win those 6 rings by himself. Hell Eli wouldn't get credit if his last name wasn't Manning. We know David Tyree and that Defense is the real reason they won. Wether you like it or not that 84 million guaranteed will always follow Cousins just like his record against competition will.

Before you say signing Bridgewater, that can be viewed as hindsight. I haven't watched him much to know how well he actually playing though. On Sunday the few plays I saw it seemed like the WRs had to wait for the ball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does his last name have to do with it. So Eli should be one of the top paid players in the league? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I learned that the OC than got a JOB as the Giants coach and one past away but I still think I would've kept that team together before I signed Cousins to that deal. Keenum did do enough with that group of guys to win multiple playoff games and just fell one game short of the SuperBowl. Cousins got demolished in his 1 playoff game at home here in Washington. Yes he was at fault for the loss a well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyMossIsBoss Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Relevant to this thread and something I found interesting considering his reputation: Through 2016-18, Cousins has played the the 2nd most defenses top 10 in DVOA, at 18. Among the 15 QBs that I would say are franchise QBs with solid job security at this rate in time, not including rookies or sophomores, Cousins is 10th in passer rating, 9th in QBR (weighing each performance equal) and 8th in offensive points scored. Obviously not spectacular, but with his reputation you'd expect him to be at the bottom when compared against other franchise QBs when playing tougher competition. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved what Keenum did for us don't get me wrong. He had a hell of a season but most people think he played way over his head and got away with a lot. I have a hard blaming them for taking a swing and getting cousins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong he's better than those guys, but he isn't no way near what his brother is in my opinion. Dilfer doesn't get credit for that Raven SuperBowl, nor do too many people remember Rex Grossman went to a SuperBowl. Both of those teams were lead to the SuperBowl by there Defense.
