Skins shut down RGIII for 2013

[Landshark]

sounds like a weak excuse. He has had a couple good games this year, so the knee didn't bother him those games? He can "plant and throw" certain weeks?! He started off the year with THREE 300 yard games to open the season. He went 24/32 on Dec 1st with no turnovers. I guess his "knee injury" comes and goes 

Please, give me a break. He has had a couple good games this year and a bunch of awful ones. Using the knee injury is a weak excuse for his poor play this season. He has just been bad!

Apparently you're the only one who thinks this.  Anyone who watches him  can clearly see he is favoring that knee

Don't believe I am the only one who believes this.

We can agree to disagree.

As with most things in life it is not entirely one or the other.

I don't think him favoring the knee completely explains everything. I'm sure it's contributing. How much is the question. Will he be back to his rookie season form when he gets completely healed? Will he ever be completely healed? Those are questions that remain to be answered, I don't think they are foregone conclusion.

Kirk Cousins for 381 yards and 3 TD's......obviously its not the "talent around the QB"

And 2 INTs. Seems disingenuous to leave that out.

When you have 381 yards and 3 TD's......you can live with the 2 INT's

If you're a QB getting your first start of the season, the Vikings 27th ranked pass defense is a good match-up to draw...

Still an impressive outing, but he was feasting on cupcakes.

He played Atlanta

[Sunstroke]

^^^ You're right, brainfart leaked from my ears there. Please replace the Vikings 27th ranked pass defense in my original statement with the Falcons 20th ranked pass defense, and change cupcakes to ho-ho's...

Looks like Dan Snyder wants to hire RGIII's old head coach from Baylor Art Briles

Briles says he has no interest, but he has to say that since this is college recruiting season with signing day a little over a month away. He can't say he is leaving Baylor.

197 yards 1 TD and 1 INT against the #31 pass defense in the league. Maybe it's IS the "talent around the QB." -EK

  Makes no sense you painting that as a bad game.

By the way they also ran for over 100 yards in the game, Cousins was 7-16 on 3rd downs, and he convereted 10 first downs by pass. Hardly a bad game as you are trying to paint it out to be. They had 10 total drives which 5 ended in "points." Not to mention that game vs Dallas was also played in the rain and not good passing conditions....just sayin

[EKnight]

More great play from Cousins today- 124 yards no TDs and an INT with 4 minutes left. God he's awful. And with all that talent around him. -EK

[MikeO]

Yep...2 good games, 1 bad game.

Point is he is no better or worse than RGIII and they got Cousins in Rd 4 and didn't need to trade a boat-load of picks to get him. Never said Cousins is Peyton Manning....but he is better than RGIII or equal at worse. Which is he is!
