Is Kirk Cousins as good as RGIII

[Vlad the Impaler]

Always talking that bullshit

You will see it when Jameis Winston falls on his face as well. That "bullshit" you speak of is the truth. I said back in 2012 that RG version 42 would suck. People will never get it. I blame political correctness.

What does Jameis Winston have to do with RGIII? Completely different players.

all black people are the same in vlad's mind.

he conveniently forgets russell wilson, black qb who won the super bowl with the seahawks last year.

Don't forget in his mind Russell Wilson is 50% human and 50% black. So it's his human side that helps him.

So yes, Joe Theisman's leg break has something to do with Kirk Cousins and RG 42. He sucks and you will never admit it. He did not have near as great of year as people think and with a typical black qb, once they realize their tendancies, game over. Then they get frustrated, blame others, get sensitive, act out, etc.

He only had one of the greatest years a rookie QB has ever had but you're right, he sucks.

RG3 by a mile. He'll play back to his rookie season. Cousins is a mediocre QB at best.

 

[Vlad the Impaler]

You people are funny. Homeboy throws every pass behind the line of scrimmage in week 1 and they lose, now cousins is 8 for 8 and up 21-0. They would not score 21 points the entire game with RG version 42.

He does suck

This vlad guy is nuts but sometimes genius comes from eccentric types

Not gonna speak to the racial stuff but good call relating to RG3/Cousins bro

This opinion back when he had it was a very unique opinion. Some people were saying RG3 > Luck!

Vlad you can't take my RG3 +400 to win ROY bet from me though!

 

[Seymour]

Griffen looks like his days of being an NFL starter are numbered - right now, I don't think anyone can say Griffen is better than anyone - he looks like the worst QB in the league let alone in Washington

Congrats to those (including) me who had this right from the beginning; watch for Manziel to fall just as flat.

Each time I see a person say K. Cousins is better than RGIII I feel dumber.

Forumville is a strange place. It reminds me of that scene in Reservoir Dogs where they're sitting at the table arguing over whether to leave a tip or not. Just a cast of mostly misfits who can't come to a consensus on anything. That happens each day in Forumland.

Oops

 

[JustinCruise]

Rg3 better when healthy. Unfortunately I doubt he will stay healthy with his style of play.

Bingo

 

[Enfuego]

Oops

Oops what?

Guy has torn his ACL twice now dislocated his ankle once. Still had one of the best rookie years in the history of the game for a QB. Well, Cousins gets his shot. Essentially, this is his rookie year. We'll see if he can lead them to the playoffs like RGIII did.

 

[Vlad the Impaler]

This is why Enfuego cracks me up. Guy will never admit he is wrong no matter what.

If RG 42 had a brain, he wouldnt always be hurt and could beat people from the pocket like a real NFL quarterback. There are reasons Vick and RG 42 never finish seasons. It is not "bad luck".

Oops as in you were wrong to think Cousins > RG3 was an absurd opinion when it looks more like it was entirely accurate. You said this is the dumbest thing you've read on this forum

RG3 had a good rookie year but it doesn't look like it was sustainable.

2 years later and Cousins clearly seems to be better. Not even sure how good Cousins is cause the sample has been small but feel pretty confident in saying RG3 probably isn't gonna make it.

Well, in all fairness, we're talking about two different things here. When healthy, RGIII is a far better QB than Kirk Cousins and it's really no debate. Can he stay healthy? So far, no. Doesn't mean he's not a better QB.

Why do you have this opinion? Because RGIII had a torn ACL and dislocated ankle? He's just better by default because RGIII is hurt?

 

[PatsFan1283]

Why is he a far better QB when healthy? He had one good rookie year when he was asked to manage the game with an elite running game. His style of play hasn't proven remotely sustainable in the NFL.

Jake Plummer had success for a year with SHanny as his coach with an elite running game and good D, it happens.

Yeah RG3 isn't a NFL caliber starting QB and hasn't been for almost 20 starts now so by default Cousins is better.

I don't see him making it and while the racial stuff is stupid, Vlad is right there is a archetype of what works in the NFL and what doesn't and his style without pocket passing isn't sustainable.

I think people underrate the success Shanahan has had with mobile quarterbacks and elite erunning games. RG3s year in 2012 was pretty same the same as Jake Plummer's in 2005
