Griffin Out For Undetermined Time, It's Cousins Time

[SouperMeister]

I don't see Cousins ever developing into a franchise QB. I think that his ceiling is equivalent to Andy Dalton. Good, but not great.

^If KC plays like Andy Dalton i would take it.

Right now this is who he is. Just like right now RG3's reality is he's been hurt too much. Time will tell for both of them.

Andy Dalton was an early second round pick. he is better than Kirk in one imporatant category. Intestinal fortitude. That's where you start when evaluating QBs Mr. shannahan.

Dalton is better than KC because he is more consistent. While Dalton may not amaze every week, he doesn't have Cousins' rollercoaster ride.

How do you evaluate intestinal fortitude? Is that measured in meters or feet?

We have Colt Mcoy for a reason. I was right on my Cousins / Grossman comparison. No rejoicing.

Have we signed another qb? Who is our 3rd stringer now?

Andre Roberts would be next man up if both Cousins and McCoy go down.

Yeah and people sometimes say well you have to give him time and he's still young and blah blah blah. But you don't see Russell Wilson having crap games like that, you don't see it from Luck, you don't see it from Griffin, you don't see it from Dalton. Not now and not in their rookie years.

Kirk is a good backup. You can't pin franchise hopes on him. I am still hopeful you can with RG3, but man does he need to stay on the field. Those are two injuries now that make it look like be just has flimsy joints.

Ugh

I look at it this way. Wilson is a good QB. But he's never asked to throw the ball 40 plus times and win a game by himself. If he ever gets in a situation where he has to play from behind, chances are he's going to have a bad game, like many other of the top QB's have had.

KC had one of the best passing games of the history of the franchise just a week ago. Then the next week, one of the worst. I'd say he's probably somewhere in the middle. I think everyone went overboard with the crowing of KC, and now everyone is going overboard with pile on. Everyone needs to chill. This isn't a playoff team.

RG3 has three major injuries now in a short period of time. He's also been knocked out of a few other games as well. I just don't think his body is built for the NFL.

If we have a high draft pick next year, which looks like a reality, and Jameis Winston is there, the Redskins have to think about it.
