Re: Who is Kirk Cousins?

To me, it's really interesting to look at his Rating over the last six games. Away, against very, very good defenses he tossed up some of his worst games. Then, followed them at home against lesser teams with some stellar games - including his two best ratings of the year.

@ Jets: 57.9 - worst of the year. [Jets' "Average Rating Against" = 81.6; 5th best in the NFL]
v. TBay: 124.7 - 2nd best of the year (You like that?)[ARA = 98.5; 23rd]
@ N.E.: 64.8 - 2nd worst of the year [ARA = 82.8; 9th]
v. New O.: 158.3 - best of the year (I like that!) [ARA = 115.9; 32nd]
@ Carolina: 89.4 - Right in the middle, sixth worst or sixth best; [ARA = 68.7; 1st]
v. Giants: 114.4 - fourth best. [ARA = 92.3; 18th]

2015 NFL Team Passing Stats - National Football League - ESPN

The real anomaly is the Carolina game where his rating was significantly higher than the average allowed by the Panthers - the best ARA defense in the NFL.

Like I said, interesting and all part of the picture. To me, it shows inconsistency. To Kirk's Kool-Aid Klub, I am sure it shows consistent improvement or, alternatively, nothing at all.
