Kirk Cousins 24/7 thread

[calia]

It just needs to get done. The guy has been a consummate professional -- languished beyond RGIII for years, stepped in largely when things were pretty bleak and did ok (not great) and was always great about accepting his role. He then seized the chance after beating RGIII out in training camp and has shown continued improvement since. Plays with emotion and seems well liked and respected by teammates. Good citizen in the community. it is crazy talk that we'd let the guy walk. We won't.

[mooby]

Yeah no way he walks. I know we're a new age as far as handing out money goes but he's the best potential free agent we've had in years so it seems laughable that he would walk. I think Kirk knows here is the best place for him as well and that will factor in. You guys wanna talk crazy scenarios? John Clayton would offer him a 4 year 96 mil deal, can you imagine Kirk getting that two years ago?

Say hello to the NFC Offensive player of the month for Kirk. Cha-ching.

There is no way the Redskins let Kirk Cousins walk. He deserves a big contract. Pay the man!

So I am arguing with a buddy on Facebook and he is a Jets fan. I start tooting my horn about KC. He goes "im sure u have been behind Cousins the whole way".
I suddenly went into Punch it in mode , like you don't know me very well do you? Lol

I don't know of anybody who was always behind Kirk Cousins. I think the general consensus among 'skins fans was that RGIII could've been our franchise guy had he not gotten hurt. I would bet that the majority wasn't really behind Cousins until the second half of last season, and probably not even until halfway through this season.

I think RG3 has shown that being injury prone was only one factor in why he was never going to become the franchise guy.

Oh exactly. Of course 2012 nobody cared about KC. 2013 I held out hope. I told him since 2014. I assumed he basically meant for the last couple of years. In other words there was a time when a lot of people thought we simply did not have the long term answer on our team. Even after Griff was gone.
I disagree about Griffs injury killing his career tthough. There is also that little "cannot play the position " thingy. Lol

Newton? Luck? Really? That is atrocious. Some of the guys in the top ten - yes - based on careers. But as for right now? Kirk is top three right now.

Yes, Luck belongs there. The lack of talent and one of the weakest OL's around don't help him. Don't believe me? What were people here saying about Cousins a few years ago when our OL sucked? People wanted him gone. Newton I agree, over rated.

I am thinking their must be some sort of affiliation with Luck and the West Coast? Hmmm? Lol
I agree that Lucks team is not great. Fair enough. However i have seen him make plenty of turnovers and bad decisions that have nothing to do with protection problems. KC got the benefit of the doubt because he was on the bench. It was an experience issue. Luck has been starting since day one. The more KC played the better he got and is getting. Cannot say the same for Luck. Time will tell us more though. Maybe I underestimate him. It is also possible I cannot get past his goofball persona.

"Kirk Cousins of the Washington Redskins, Marcus Mariota of the Tennessee Titans and Dak Prescott of the Dallas Cowboys are a little different. Each of these three quarterbacks are in their first or second season as a full-time starter. They make up the next wave of talented passers and will almost certainly be considered top-10 quarterbacks when the aging veterans inevitably drop off and retire."

I think this is a reasonable way for the author to rank these three QB's, whether or not I agree with him.
