K-9 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 1 minute ago, The Jokeman said: Denver's D was worse than ours in points against. Also Tailb might be on the way out which might take it down a fee more pegs. I don't debate their competition but not better than us. Well, I disagree in that Denver's D is built to play with leads and I think Cousins may give them that more often than not. Their front seven is leaps and bounds better than ours. That said, I do think they missed Wade Phillips' scheming last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you are boxed in you acknowledge the situation and make the best of the weak situation you are in. Cousins was not going to sign with them. And the team didn't believe he was worth the extravagant contract this year. To make the situation worse if they did franchise him and he played on another one year deal the team would be in the same situation the following year. What the signing of Smith does is buy time to get another qb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 As much as I want Cousins I dont think we're even a top 3 choice. I'll get my hopes up for a couple months though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 BBFS kicking in with regards to Cousins not wanting to come to town. There are plenty of reasons he would come. Get it down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McBean Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Let’s hope Cousins goes to Cleveland or Denver. Maybe they become trade partners for Darnold or Rosen. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmuggs Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Leroi was talking about this the other day. Our new QB will be a much bigger upgrade than Smith. No worries. Leroi s Draft board coming out next week!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't make sense to me but it's not like Washington has been the team to look up to in recent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ittakestime Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 How could we not get anything for Tyrod? A second for Alex Smith is such an overpayment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess the rumors about that organization being in disarray were true...not only do they spend a ton of money on Smith, while losing draft capital and a player....but they could have just spent the money on a younger Cousins, while keeping all their assets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ol Dirty B Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 18 minutes ago, HappyDays said: This isn't the first time a good player has been mishandled and it won't be the last. Stats show Cousins is consistently top 10, sometimes top 5. And would free up our draft picks to build around him. He's not top 5, not even close Brady Rodgers Brees Wentz Goff Wilson Rothlisberger Stafford Luck if he gets healthy again. Rivers Ryan... Top 10 is even debatable. Not even consistent.

PIZ Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I hope there isn't even one Bills fan that doesn't want Kirk Cousins. It would be awesome to see a QB find his wide open receivers instead of dumping it off to a FB. Kirk Cousins would be a huge upgrade. Here are his numbers the last 3 years: 2017.... 4,093. 27 TDs. 2016.... 4,917. 25 TDs. 2015.... 4,166. 29 TDs. 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is is why I find it funny when Bills fans destroy Tyrod the way they do as if he is the only QB who has bad games. What QB oversaw more 3 points or less games than TT last year?

He won't lose you a game very often. He isn't Brady, he won't win games when he has zero help, but he's certainly closer to Brady than he is to Tyrod. Personally I count 2-3 more wins if Cousins was the starter last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't make sense to me but it's not like Washington has been the team to look up to in recent years. Cousins was not going to sign with them. So in order to retain him they would have had to franchise him on a one year exorbitant franchise tag price. Then the next year they would be in the same situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Arnold Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 6 minutes ago, Kirby Jackson said: I think that it is the Browns or Broncos. 18 minutes ago, ScottLaw said: Cousins isn't coming here. IMO Jets sign him. Why would Cousins go to a team with a coach on the hot seat? All three of those teams are declining. Why would Cousins want to go to that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formerly Allan in MD Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Cousins wants to play for a team that can win. That probably eliminates the Browns and some others. But we shouldn't break the bank for him. Bet Denver does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
