Burgold Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Got it do it more than once to be the man, but he was on target, sharp, and excellent today! Â Hail to the Redskins! Hail to Captain Kirk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Gotta say, he was good today. When he has an INT-free game, good things happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrison J Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Outstanding today.  The guy needs to be backed and supported instead of hopped on and shot down when he has a poor game. Absolutely hate elements of our fanbase at times. Like they want him to fail.  Absolutely delighted for Kirk. Pretty much faultless game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dballer Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 This may have been a big step forward... Â May have been just another turn on the Cousins Carousel... Â But, this is why it is important for him to get all year. Find out what he really can be. Feels good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgold Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Yup, game managed well, but also might some real "QB" plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throwback37 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 His pocket awareness is impressive. Feels the pressure and escapes from a lot of would-be sacks. I like that today he didn't make the big mistake and got the ball into the hands of play makers. Hopes he keeps it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redskins59 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Can we all agree that Kirk Cousins is a more accurate QB this year? Granted, part of that is because of the system, but his growth should not be denied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoodBits Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Calm down guys. Cousins is the QB version of Rod Gardner. Good overall game today. Gave it away last week. Next week, you confident in him? You shouldn't be. We don't have an NFL starter on this roster, but good Cousins can get the job done ok most weeks.

Taylor703 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I don't know what to think of Kirk but he certainly played well today. He's now had two bad games and two good games. It could all be a part of his development so we'll see. Great game today for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoCalMike Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 He did well today and I am happy with his performance on that final drive, but I still stick with some of my criticisms of his overall game, which I don't really feel we need to get into in this thread.

ZRagone Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Cousins had a very good game today, and I loved the drive to end it. That said...claims that we have an NFL QB today 10 minutes after the game is as crazy as saying Cosuins wasn't an NFL QB 10 days ago 10 minutes after the game. We fans are far too often a hyper emotional, in the moment, bunch. Anyone prior to today that thought Cousins couldn't play like this was both fooling themselves and ignoring reality. Anyone today thinking this game shows that things like last week are a fluke for Cousins are also fooling themselves and ignoring reality. It's be nice, week to week, if it was going to be possible to have real conversations about Cousins play, ability, and future without the over reaction in either direction, but it doesn't look likely. Trying my best to ignore the ridiculousness... Very good game by Cousins. Love that they opened things up a bit for him with some good deeper routes. Great poise on that last drive for his first full comeback drive of his career. And good heads up after bobbling the snap to turn disaster into success. Here's hoping he continues this path and we have another few games like this throughout the season. If most of his games over the rest of the year are more like this then it may make the off season plans a lot clearer. But still a lot of football left before having to make that decision either way, which is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSSkinz Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I like that we seem to convert 3rd and 5-9 yards with consistency, Cousins deserves a ton of credit for that. If we could run better in the red zone those fg's will become td's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedskinsLegacy Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 This is what happens when you give a QB playing experience, and Cousins will get better ever game. This game winning drive was very important for Cousins confidence and for this teams. A few missed opportunities last week was the difference in winning, but it's great to see Kirk bounce back this week. This offense will even get better when D-Jax returns, I think they will be contending for this division as they start to gel together, which started today. Great game by Cousins and Garcon.

TSO Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Calm down guys.  Nah, they don't need to calm down. Let them enjoy it, even if it's homerriffic.  It's not like the other extreme isn't constantly presented as well. And this is a Redskins board where, you know, we get excited about the Redskins. Kind of weird like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skins island connection Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 It was a good day for him, but lets not get too overly excited. If he continues to play good then we will have our answer, but the Eagles aren't exactly a strong defensive team. Nevertheless he gets a thumbs up today.

RonArtest15 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Game manager. Not mad at that. Just be efficient and cut down on the mistakes. Probably will never be elite, but that's OK. Just go out there and do your job. Which he did today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexa Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Kirk is the best qb on this team. Period. Not sure if that means he's good enough to be the qb of the future but he played well today. I think Kirk will be a better qb the 2nd half of the season. People need to be patient. He still has not started a full season yet. He took a big step forward today.
