It is not the 2018 Redskins because we have a D, a run game, and our special teams don’t turn special anymore. They execute. Im just not sure why there is this fallacy out there that none of that would be possible if we didn’t have a quarterback who was conservative out of necessity. He cannot do anything besides a real quick pass. I expected him to use his legs to keep plays alive and let our underwhelming wr’s - who were just as bad last year mind you - get separation. He doesn’t though. He rarely uses his legs at all. It doesn’t even have to be the deep ball, but he cannot hit alot of the intermediate stuff. Doesn’t even really try.
If we do finish with some amazing record and it is done the same way we have won these 6 than I still want a quarterback. He does not change our defense. Three and outs hurt our defense and I think we are seeing that as the season grinds on. They get gassed. He does not change our special teams other than allowing Way to showcase his punting ability. AP or Guice when he comes back should be better if people were afraid of the passing game but they are not.
It just doesn’t have to be a good d, run game, and st’s with no pass game or a pass game with none of the rest. Lol. Forget Cousins, ok, any quarterback that can help our pass game would be lethal with the way the rest of our team is playing. He would help the rest of the team be even better because of all the reasons I mentioned above. Look all I care about is winning really but winning consistently and beating good teams is just not realistic with a one dimensional offense. Look around the league. Saints, Rams, Chiefs, Steelers, Chargers, Bears even with Trubisky, Pats, Texans, Vikes. Those are the best teams and they all have quarterbacks that can throw it. We might have a banner day on defense or with the run and take one of them out but if we played those teams over and over we all know what the results would be and we all know why.
