Kirk Cousins Expected To Start Sunday

I'm sorry, but that just doesn't make good sense. Of course we should want Kirk to play well. How could that possibly hurt the franchise? Would his trade value go up too much?

Whether we run the ball more or not, he'll still throw 20+ passes.

What I mean is if we win, people will point to Cousins as the primary reason why we one as he is the noticeable change, however, the offense recently has not ran Alfred Morris:
Against KC- 12carries--31 yards
NYG-11 carries-26 yards
SF-14 -52
Phil-22-93
It has been nearly a month since we have worked AlMo hard in the running gam.e

Shanny would have shot that down easily if he wasn't on board.

Exactly. Another thing that is bugging me. Shanny was given complete control. No way he was against the pick. No way he "allowed" Snyder to make the call on RG-3. That is just dumb.

Yes a million times. Its what i keep saying, its the rite decision but the timing is so damn fishy.This whole board, and I checked out ES hoping they were different (no luck), is acting out an example of a phenomenon that amuses me. You know when a group of people really hates someone, they treat normal behavior like a mortal sin.

The example I read, and like I've seen in RL, is a group of people sitting at one table in a lunchroom, whispering to each other about someone else sitting at a table other side of the room eating their lunch "Just look at her over there! Eating her food like she owns the place!"

Same phenomena here. Shanny's got a losing record here. This is a very disappointing season. So what's the mortal sin Shanny's committed according to this board? Making a personnel move most people here agree with. (And it's not just us. It's also ES, and all over the media.)

SMH.

I see. Good point!

So, you think that Griff's health was not in question in the Seattle game, or the Ravens game, or in weeks one through 6, but now it is a good time to "preserve" him?
Leave all the weird lunch room banter examples out of it and just answer the question - lol.

I pointed this out awhile back in another thread. It's like we're slowly phasing out the running game. Alfmo has had less than 15 touches in the last 3 games. And they don't do anything (i.e. play action) to try to open up the run game.

And why do they keep trying to have Alfmo run east-west a la the pitch play? The man's a brusier, let him run straight up the middle. That pitch play works maybe twice a half. Yet we call the damn thing about once a drive.

Sounds like a whole of a poor game planning going on.

Honest to god, its the worse game planning ive ever seen in my life. Its a total shit show

In the SF game he was running ok too (about 3.7 per a carry) certainly enough to extend drives and decrease passing o-line exposure. Plus it keeps the SF O off the field.

Some people agree with it, but that doesn't mean they are backing Shanahan's rationale. Some people just want to see Cousins, or they think RG should be benched for performance, or they don't want to risk him getting hurt.

On the pine conversation:

LeRib: Don't worry Robert you still get to enjoy the post game spread even if you don't suit up. That is some good eats.
Haynesworth: Yeah that is why I am still on the payroll.
Spurrier: Keeps me coming back that's for sure.
RG3: Who are you guys?
