Kirk Cousins Expected To Start Sunday

If he plays well, the madness will begin/continue about what a great QB Cousins is, and people will start screaming for him to start, or thinking the Redskins can trade him for multiple first round picks to recoup the losses from the Griffin trade. One of the worst things that can happen is for the unproven, very mediocre Cousins to do well for that very reason. And also because it will give the arrogant Shanahan more ammo to say he was right.

Of course, since Cousins will be facing a horrible Falcons team, then the worst defense in the league with Dallas, and another shoddy outfit in NY, his chances of playing well or winning a game or two aren't too crazy...so he'll win a game or two an/or put up good numbers and the madness will continue.

The only reason this is being done is to keep the silly soap opera drama going. Shanahan hasn't given two squats about Griffin's health to date, now all of a sudden he's concerned about his health? Yeah right.

This whole outfit needs to get blown up and redone from scratch.

(sigh) :doh:

Whether Shanahan stays or gets fired.... what if the next HC doesn't believe in RG3 either based off of what he's seen and thinks Cousins is better? I guess they will just have to trade Cousins anyway and find a way to force RG3 to get better. Thats it right? Don't even think of trading RG3 or making him a very expensive back up. lol.

Himself. It went from 4-5 years to 10-12. lol

If my math is correct that would be 27 years and one playoff win.....

@ayeemzee

Shanahan is on fire right now. This is the most defense we have seen from the #Redskins in weeks. Can it take the field on Sunday?




:laughing2

@dcsportsbog 3m

Shanahan: "Dan could care less about the other positions." Oh man this is going well


I am assuming Shanahan was asked about Snyder's role or something. At this point, Shanahan is either too egotistical to see what an ass he is being or he is doing a full on "Save My Son's Reputation By Tanking Mine" play.

Each day it becomes more and more surreal, it's like

the X-Files - "The Truth Is Out There"

a Biblical moment - Pontius Pilate "What is 'truth'?"

a Zen Koan - If Mike tells a lie to protect Kyle, does anyone else hear it?

a retro '70's TV moment - "What you talking about Mikie??"

a commercial - "You won't believe it's not Robert"

Three more weeks of this madness. God help us all.

Seriously? We give up all those picks and we're ready to delegate RG3 to backup duty or trade bait if Cousins is better? RG3's defining year is next year, not this year. You get 3 strikes before you're out.

Yes Rave, next year is thee defining year.
On a side note last year wouldnt count as a strike.....

Told you I was bringing my molotov cocktails

I actually think Shanahan did exceptionally well in the conference today. He seemed honest and forthright. He said Dan was 100% behind the decision to bench RGIII. He also admitted he made a mistake for not pulling him from the Seattle game.

To be completely honest, im starting to think there is a chance (although not a overwhelming one) that Shanahan comes back next year.

can someone post the Mike presser when its over? thanks ahead of time
