“Kirk Cousins is actually the more viable option, because Kirk Cousins will sit in the pocket and find his guy and read a defense and know pre-snap where he’s going to go with the ball, and if something breaks down, then he finds his checkdown back.'That's Jordan Rodgers. It's the description of what a QB is supposed to do. A notably high percentage of "QBs of the future" is not able to do it. And QBOTF = black. Another euphemism is "running QB." Whenever you see "inability to read defenses," you're basically seeing an extended term for dumb. By this theory, the blacks who succeed at QB will be more like the White QBs who succeed. Russell Wilson, for example. Very smart, very cautious. Even Jameis Winston fits this model. Cam Newton does not. Plenty of running QBs have a good year, or a good stretch, but then falter. Whereas the skills a QB like Cousins has do not wither with time, like fresh legs, they grow stronger, at least for a decade. The game "slows down" as they inevitably say. For the running QB, it's his legs that slow down, for the traditional QB, it's the game that slows down, with time and experience.
Again, we can't help but notice how the critics of Cousins, while correct in analyzing what he did in his first two seasons, fail to consider that he might do better as he gains more experience. Few of them seem to realize that the odds are better than not Cousins has not fully developed. But even if he has, he has broken records two seasons in a row. Do you not think he is capable of what Matt Ryan did in 2016? Instead, after a mere two seasons, one commenting reader says Skins don't want to be Cincinnati. When you remember how much official-media support RGIII got for his comeback(s), you can only shake your head. KC doesn't need to come back. And there's no reason to think he can't develop further.
