The FINAL Kirk Cousins Saga thread. 5.0

I have no major beef either and will always pull for him.

That said, it was painfully obvious he wanted to leave, and so all the sweet talking he does about wanting to still be a Redskin is pretty disingenuous.

But I guess he had to say all the right things in case we ended up being the place he ultimately chose to come back to.

Can't be mad at him. Also, can't blame Bruce Allen for making an aggressive move. You can blame him for not signing Cousins in 2015, but you can't blame him for trading for Smith now.

Time for everybody to pull up their big boy pants and tie their big boy shoes and move on with life. Let's sign some mother f'n free agents! I'm ready for the next episode.

I agree. I am disappointed in this conclusion but I will still be rooting for this team to get better. If Kirk had any interest in staying with us, he wouldn't have declared his intention to wait until March to negotiate. That basically says he favors us no more than any other team. Good luck to him elsewhere. Also, I will take this opportunity to say Bruce's failings with Kirk add to his already long list of failings and reasons why he should be fired. Won't happen but I just want it to be clear where I stand.

Kirk taking the high road but He NEVER EVER wanted to be here..The Skins paid him a ton of money the last two years and what did that get this team? missed playoffs !!! is it all on him no but when you want to be paid like the man..BE THE MAN! My guess is his next 3 years in league will be average and whatever team will do okay ..just like with Smith we should be average 8-8 9-7 type team . I don't see that we lost the Superstar elite QB ..its close to being even trade except for Fuller ( that hurts!)

Fuller for Smith is basically the trade, we recoup the third rounder with a comp pick next year.

I'm done with this thread too. He's gone and I'm glad to have Alex.

This is perfect.

Jesus Christ.



How would the fan base have reacted if we had Colt McCoy as our starter, and some street free agent dipshit as our backup (remember, Sudfeld was on the Eagles at that point).



I completely understand that. My comment originated from Mattys post about Cooley making a good point that they should have traded him before the deadline this year or last year. SD skins called it hindsight and I am simply saying that was only three months ago and they were probably pretty well sure that KC was going to be gone one way or another by than. So I guess take up ur beef with Cooley. Lol.

I just don't understand how Skins fans dog a QB that in 3 years performed better than all most any QB in the league. this year was probably his best year when you factor in injuries, lack of WR support, lack of a running game and a HORRIBLE Defense. Go back to last year and the games the D lost in the 4th quarter. if our D was half as good as it actually was we win 10-11 games and aren't having this discussion. I have been a skins fan for a LONG time and I can never remember having a guy under center that legitimately gives us a chance to win every game. As an organization - you want to win. Bruce and Dan just seem to crap in the face of the fans and the overall betterment of the team. Bruce gets rid of not 1, but 2 1000 yard receivers!! And to me, was done to undermine kirk to try and prove he wasn't worth the franchise money. Egos shouldn't get in the way of doing what is best for the organization and it continuously does with these idiots.

Amend to that mate. Big Cuz never got the respect he was due here. Some were to quick to give up on him and the ones who did more than likely never gave up on RG3. Coincidence? I think not.

I'm sure Kirk will do well with the team that signs him. Wherever that is it implies sure he will be fantastic. I only hope we can say the same of Alex Smith?

Let me ask you guys this, can they force Cousins to only be traded? I mean doesn't he have to sign something? What if he tells Dan and Bruce, "i'm not signing anything". If they slapped another tag on him, would that force him to sit out the entire 2018 season?

Cousins would have all the leverage, tagging him would be a disaster
