You mean like when he played in WAS?

Still had Desean Jackson, Pierre Garçon, and Jordan Reed — plus a good OL and a list of offensive coaches that would make your head spin. He wasn’t exactly hurting for talent around him in WAS either, at least in the seasons when he was actually good.

Obviously the team just happened to have its worst loss of the season (given the opponent) so the super intelligent, brave take will be to call them fraudulent because all we care about is what happened two seconds ago. 
 

They’re definitely below Dallas, San Fran, and Philly… but they’re not much below that. Definitely a playoff worthy team… but also too inconsistent. Too many random games where they allow themselves to get decimated. They could probably beat anyone, but the inability to protect Kirk (who is actually quite good) and the inconsistency on defense will get them beat when both of those issues are happening simultaneously. Which is why they lost to an inferior squad today despite being a team that can march into Buffalo and beat the Bills at home. You have to give them credit for the moments where they have delivered time and time again in the clutch… and they clearly have star power.. but you have to wonder how far that can take them. Good team, though. Playoffs will be interesting.

Looking back that at the names on those coaching staffs was very interesting

We have been calling them frauds this entire thread

They are this week the same as they have been all season. A good team who has had a series of fortunate events. They came best anybody but they can quite easily lose to anybody as well. I've seen some reference their win at Buffalo but that was the flukiest of flukey games. Just as they weren't as bad as their record last year, they aren't as good as their record this year. GB has had a couple seasons like this in recent memory and many called them the worst 13 win team ever. Teams get hot/lucky. Just ride the wave while you can.

Cousins has always gotten way too much hate on here.

Seems like if you arent an elite or borderline elite QB, you are trash to many people.    You aren't allowed to be merely "good" anymore without drawing alot of hate.
