The offense remains predictable with the annoying habit of throwing behind the sticks on 3rd downs and hoping for a missed tackle.
This has been the norm since Cousins has gotten here and it is all on him. If you want to know how much of a team player he is, watch the 3rd and 11 play on the last drive of OT and watch him not even think about throwing for a 1st, Thielen was not even in position to run after the catch, so it was just dumping it off, that is how his stats go up and his wins go down.
... ridiculous anti-logic.
For starters, essentially every QB we've had for the last decade has done that exact, maddening play repeatedly.
Secondly, if that was some schemed stat bump...why not for more yards, why would Thirlen play along, when not move the chains toward more "stat" completions and TDs?
That babble is the dumbest s**t floating in the internet toilet.
Truth.
No, Cousins didn't throw many passes past 15 yards in this game. I'm guessing because of the defense they played. Maybe the pass rush. But at one point or another, every QB in the NFL is accused of being a dump off, dink and dunk QB when things don't go right. Cousins deep ball was missing in this game, but that's NOT typically who he is.

1. Kirk Cousins (180)
2. Tom Brady (179)

4. Deshaun Watson - 90.3
5. Aaron Rodgers - 86.1
Highest graded QBs on 3rd or 4th down in 2019

You have to be better than this in the 1st.
Christian Ponder--BUST
Matt Kalil--BUST
Harrison Smith--DEFINITE HOME RUN
Shariff Floyd--BUST ( injury, could happen to anybody )
Xavier Rhodes-- SUCCESS
Cordarrelle Patterson--BUST ( Especially considering the draft capital spent to get him )
Anthony Barr--SUCCESS ( But not when you consider that they passed on Aaron fricking Donald , but Barr has been a starter for many years)
Teddy Bridgewater--BUST ( injury, could happen to anybody )
Trae Waynes--Success... but not by much
Laquon Treadwell--BUST
Mike Hughes--BUST
Garrett Bradbury--STILL Early but I am saying BUST
Justin Jefferson--Early, but looks like a SUCCESS
Jeff Gladney--BUST
Christian Darrisaw--WAY TO EARLY.
9 BUSTS ( 7 if you dont count the 2 injuries to Teddy and Shariff)
5 SUCCESSES
The NFL average is 53%, success on first round picks. Looks like Speilman is under 42%.
Which is a great reason to trade 1st for DeShaun Watson. Give them 3 firsts and Cousins, some later picks.
We draft better beyond the first and with Watson and these weapons, we would be a threat in every game.
You remind me of the people that wanted us to trade for Vick, even when he was outed as a psychotic dog murderer.
"Sure, he's got horrible issues and is a PR nightmare...but let's trade away 3 years of draft capital!".
Holy Hell...NO.

So that's it for Watson, no more NFL? Someone is going to take a chance on him and if he sees the field, that football team will benefit.
I would do the same deal for Wilson, I would mortgage the future of 1st round BUSTS for a franchise QB who can actually take this team to the super bowl. Our GM hits on first rounders 1 out of every 3, small sacrifice for a MVP QB.
What is your solution? Stick with Qirk? Build around Mond? Draft another QB? Maybe we go re-tread to bring the QB cap number down in a couple years, Jimmy G, Ryan Tannehill, how about Tyrod Taylor?

How's that work? He's never proven to be SB-worthy, and he'd still be coming to a team with a run-first fetished coach and a constantly crappy o-line.
I don't see him accomplishing superhuman feats, and thus...why mortgage away the future on some dude who's facing dozens of charges/suits?
