This is want you want to hear from your QB. Sign a veteran receiver, pick a stud running back in round 1 or 2 and lets go. Welcome aboard.

say what you want about cousins. but he always said the right things, dont think that was a problem

It depends on what you mean by right things... political, not offensive, and appropriate? Yes, totally agree.

He never seemed inspiring though, and when he said shit about wanting to evaluate the team and wanting to go through the recruitment process again. That might not be toxic, but it doesn't really rally three team either. Yana'mean?

Exactly, he came off like an experienced politician, very disingenuous. Has he ever said he was jacked to be here? Don't think so.

What are you talking about? Or is this more of fans smearing a player because our idiot front office messed up again?

It's like some bizarro world where people freak out the Skins traded a situational player with promise (hate to see the reaction if the Skins traded an every game starter). But when the Skins let our own QB go rather than pay X money, then sign another QB for around the same amount, it's the player's fault! lol.

sorry, but cousins is all about the money . . . how many times did he say he would love to keep playing in washington . . . yet he wouldn't even negotiate . . . he was doing nothing more than blowing smoke up fans asses in an attempt to gain the sympathy vote and its simple as that . . . he was a good liar . . . but lied constantly if you look at the things he said and then how he actually acted away from the podium.

It should definitely help the locker room to have security at the QB position, and just a solid all around guy in Smith. No lingering contract questions, no tag or not to tag bullshit.

Smith isn’t backing out, just stop, leave it to Florio to bring mad stupid to the conversation

Offseason... this wonderful time when "journalists" have nothing to talk about so they just make sh*t up or make ideas sound like facts.

I don't believe that Cousins was ever going to sign a long term deal..When he rubbed Scotts hair after that comeback win and said something to him that showed me He was fed up and wanted out..Later we find out Scott himself is not sold on Kirk as the elite/franchise QB..I STILL say if Cousins does not throw that pick late in the Giants game and we had won that game and got in the playoffs there would have been a huge push to get it done..I just hope that nothing crazy happens to screw up Smiths deal and this team learns from this and moves on.

That pick was rough and still hard to swallow as fans, we don't make the playoffs often and we had a chance to go back 2 back that would have been huge for the team. He was awful in that game.

I cant think of many late in the season games that the team as a whole wasnt "awful" -- while a win is a win, even some of those late wins going back a while were nothing that impressive.
