Quote:Let me see if I have this straight - you chastise people for making assumptions, with nothing to go on, and then you, with nothing to go on, make the assumption that Cousins is very talented, much more so than Henne.

 

Got it.

 

You beat me too it.

 

The guy made assumption after assumption in the that rant-like post. He pretends like Cousins is proven, or something. The statement that "Kirk cousins led the Redskins to the playoffs last year" is a bit misleading. The final three games of the season:

 

The Browns lost to the Falcons. Kirk Cousins had 9 pass attempts, 2 INTs, and 1 TD.

The Browns beat the Ravens. Kirk Cousins had 2 pass attempts, 1 TD.

The only game I'd really say Kirk Cousins "won" for the Redskins last year was vs the Browns. 1 INT, 2 TDs.

 

So in the final 3 games of 2012, where Cousins supposebly built a superior resume to Flynn, the QB had 4 TDs an 3 INTs.

 

Then, in the playoffs, Cousins went 3 for 10 for 31 yards 0 TDs, 0 INTs.

 

 

It isn't like Cousins had some sort of breakout year. Then fast forwawd to this season. Cousins has more turnovers (4) than touchdowns (3). His QB rating is 70.4. He looked terrible against the two good teams he played and looked average against the worst pass defense in the NFL.

 

Trading a 2nd round pick for this week armed, game-manager-at-best QB is not something I want to see happen.
