Well, most nfl defenses have elite athleticism also. He still had over 480 yds rushing last year. Rg3 is clearly a better qb. Not even close. I made a rash decision after last week. Cousins is a siv.

So if his main skill is negated because it is harder to play that style in todays game then that is going to hurt his long-term prospects at QB.

I really don't know what is so hard to understand about the fact this guy has been 1 of the worst QBs in the NFL over a pretty large sample size now.

Atleast Cousins just had 2 good games before sucking last night.

Large sample size? Lmao. He's played two seasons and one of those seasons was probably the greatest season by any RC qb in history. And even after tearing up his knee he still put up decent numbers last year. You're just a jealous RG hater.

He struggled late in 2012, you're talking almost 20 games of ineffectiveness. His 2013 #s were not decent man, you can atleast admit he sucked last year.

17 TDs in his last 14 games is brutal bro. Not sure what is so hard to understand here.

Jealous RG3 hater, lol...I mean I just said I cashed a +450 on him winning ROY, I love RG3.

I mean MAYBE he is salvageable with the right offense but I don't know why the Redskins thought he could handle Gruden's scheme. Gruden has wanted Cousins over him since training camp because atleast he is a pocket passer for better or worse.

Even if you watched the first two games this year RG3 was looking solid. 77% completion, 98.4 qb rating, lol. You guys are just jealous haters.

Lmao! There's a reason why you aren't using any numbers. Just nothing but pure conjecture. He didn't do great last year but he definitely did not do that bad. 16 tds, 12 ints, over 3,200 yards passing after not playing for 8 months because he tore ligaments in his knee.

What a clown argument.

Huh? He barely played the 2nd game? Cmon man now you are just reaching.

The first game they scored 1 TD and he wouldn't go down the field at all.

Also what is the jealous hater thing? I don't even get that joke.

What do you mean not using any #s...He has had 16 TDs in his last 14 games, those are numbers?

3200 yards passing in 13 games when playing from behind as much as the Skins did is terrible. He averaged 7 ypa which was in the bottom tier of QBs last year. His QB rating was also in the bottom tier of QBs.

Not sure what you are even saying right now, you must've borrowed whatever chop has been using lately.

Did you even watch the first game? Lmao, he completed 78% of his passes, no interceptions, 267 yards. Had a guy fumble at the 5 yard line after a perfect pass that would have put them up.

Then in the Jacksonville game he threw a 50+ yard dime to Jackson that should have been a catch but they called it incomplete. You're holding him to standards that aren't even realistic. What Cousins did last night is something RG3 would never do.

The numbers don't lie. If you hate RG3 this much it has to come from jealousy. Especially since he's only played 2 seasons so far, lol. And one of those seasons came after knee surgery where he was wearing a brace and limping everywhere. Has to be jealousy.

Yea, and those numbers make him look like Joe Montana compared to the numbers Kirk Cousins put up.

How do you even make the leap that I hate him? I just said he has been an ineffective QB over his last XYZ # of starts.

Picking 1 game where he played OK isn't really shattering my argument he has been largely ineffective for a little while now.

if you are going to make that big a deal about 1 game some could say cousins was the best qb in nfl history after week 3.

You yourself 24 hrs ago said cc might be better then rg3.

Lmao, the argument is between Kirk and RG3. I'm not arguing that he's better than Peyton Manning. He was far more effective than Kirk Cousins last year. The Redskins defense was horrid, they had injuries in the wide receiver spots, had no protection for him, it was a mess of a season yet he still put up over 3,200 yards and more tds than ints, plus 480 yards rushing.

And it's hilarious how you use 1 season in which he was in a knee brace and coming off knee surgery as "largely ineffective for a while now".

Not sure what you are even arguing any more. Seems like you are arguing just to hate.

Yea, I said he might be, because of his performances against Jax and Philly. Then he came back to earth yesterday and I realized why I've told everyone for the past 2 years why he should not start over RG3. It was poor judgement on my part and partly just trying to hope the Redskins have a chance.

So RG3 16 TDs in last 14 games

Cousins 6 TDs in 2 games

If you wanna make the argument that RG3 was just fucked last year then that is fine I guess. It'll take some time for that 1 to be proven wrong but if you wanna make the argument RG3 has been more effective than Cousins in recent history, you are going to need to leave that apple on the tree and let it be.
