Yeah the results with Cousins as QB haven't been all that much different than with Robert. There are some things Cousins does better considering he has been running a pro-"like" system for a longer time than Robert, but when all is said and done our offense is still pretty subpar. The talent level of the team is not where it needs to be in order to contend, but is anyone really going to try and make an argument that the talent around the QB in 2015 is not way better than it was in 2012-2014?

Regardless of which side you fall on in the "who is the better option" discussion, I don't think anyone was arguing that there weren't some things that Cousins was flat out better than over Robert. The question for me has always been, do you give Robert the reps and time to try and learn the rest while he is playing out his rookie contract while being on a team that isn't likely to sniff more than 6 wins regardless of who is QB? Especially if you don't think Cousins is the long term answer at the QB spot either.
