Kirk Cousins

Cousins thoroughly outplays RG3 against Ravens

by Jonathan Ebanks | Falcons Correspondent | Sun, Aug 24th 1:50am EDT

Redskins backup quarterback Kirk Cousins put on a clinic against the Ravens' depth, putting up 122 yards and two touchdowns on 14-of-20 passes.

Fantasy Impact:

His very first drive outdid everything Redskins QB Robert Griffin III had done all game. He completed five of his seven passes for 52 yards and a TD on that drive. He displayed much better command of the offense, better pocket presence, and made better reads than Griffin. The organization and the fans love Cousins, but Daniel Snyder is in Griffin's corner and the coaching staff has put all of their faith in Griffin. Even if Griffin falls flat on his face this season, it's more likely that the team will stick with him over switching to Cousins.
