Kirk earned it (as it should be) and hopefully he'll make the most of this 2nd opportunity.
Meanwhile....

With the right team and coach, RG3 can be a good qb. However I don't think there's a chance in hell that's our team. I'm worried that team might be the Eagles, which is why I also hope he goes to the AFC. For now, here's to Captain Kirk leading the way, and proving once and for all whether or not he deserves to be a starter in the NFL.
Said the same thing about Jason Campbell several years ago. I was wrong then, and - much as I really, really, really was hoping RGIII was the guy - I think folks are wrong about that now.
Happy the drama seems to be over but deeply, deeply depressed that the promise of 2012 is so completely gone. I really truly was hoping RGIII could be the face of the franchise for years.

I agree with you Joe. Terribly sad 2012 was it. I felt it after he was injured in the playoff game that he was done. Terribly sad for that kid who lit the world on fire only to have the world light him on fire.

Fuck Mike Shanahan for leaving RGIII on the field against the Seahawks, he should have been benched after Ngata hit him in the Baltimore game.
I want to go on record as cheering in the Kirk Cousins era in the second half of the Seahawks playoff game. I was almost murdered in the stadium for it but I've never liked "running" quarterbacks and I've never seen anything in RG3 that made me excited about him outside of a few rare razzle dazzle moments. I've hated this pick since they traded with the Rams and before it was even a done deal. I'm glad that this debacle is near the end, though he will still be a distraction for a little while. I'll be in section 112 against Miami watching what I hope will be the dawning of a new day for my beloved Redskins.
I see a bit of Brett Favre in Kirk.. He'll throw a few picks but he'll also get you 300 yards and can lead you down field when it matters. He needs seat time but I'm looking at a kid with 9 starts in the NFL. It's a little early to say he's not ready to transition to the role as starter. It's always a bumpy ride, you're just looking for improvement as you go..
Hated the 2012 season?

RedskinsJake-
What have you seen that tells you he can lead the team down the field when it matters?
What I have seen is a guy who shits his pants when he is under any kind of mental pressure.
Please enlighten me. If you are happy that we now have Captain Turnover and Captain McConcussion as our top two qbs and rg III has failed to be what we all thought he was going to be beyond the ROY division winner 2012 season, then you must have a bad memory. 2015 is going to be a long year

This year we have the qb Whisperer and our qb has a beard. Superbowl bound!
Seriously though, I think Cavanaugh has a chance to be huge for this team. Cousins will throw a pick but its important to refocus afterwards and Cavanaugh has to do that. You can come back from picks and with DJax and our receivers I hope he can get past them.

The cousins era has begun.
Mike Shanahan. Loves cousins. "Kirk Cousins is a franchise QB he will be a top 10 QB in this league no doubt about it"
Shanarat loves him some cousins. KC was his pick

That Shanarat asshole ruined RGIII's career.
