I mean I think the data pretty much points to it being deniable. Doesn't seem to be a Cousins problem. Seems to be a Vikings/Redskins problem. Pretty hard to have those Sunday night numbers and be 4-4. Those are like better-than-Brady level numbers in primetime.
Tony romo is another one of these cases, such a common view that he was a choke artist, but he was one of the leaders in career 4th quarter comebacks league wide for a lot of his career, and had absurd fourth quarter stats in one score games.
And I mean I'm not going to sit here and say Kirk is "clutch" by any means. Its entirely possible that he's just making terrible throws in big spots. But overall its pretty much impossible to have those numbers in primetime and it be all your fault why your team has like a 30% win pct or whatever it is. Like there's clearly plenty of other guys not stepping up in big moments when that happens.
some of these numbers go back to his time in Washington and Washington is pathetic on home MNF games going back a couple decades (since Fedex). That being said, it's not all on the QB and I believe that is what you are getting at.
Numbers never tell what really goes on.. if anyone watches kirk play, they know he really fks up at times. Very possible to have good numbers and still fk up just like you can have bad numbers and still win the game.. brady just did it the other week vs rams. Shit lamar always does it. My eyes>stats
I just don’t get it. I hate Irsay immensely but he owns the team. Owning an NFL team should mean that you can hire anyone you want to coach the team, it is yours. I understand the Rooney rule, but that is really a formality that was put in place. Saturday is a close friend of Irsay and Irsay has gotten football advice from Saturday and must have liked it decided, hey I think he may be a decent interim coach. If he likes him, that is all that should really count. If Saturday sucks and there is enough backlash to where it hurts Irsay financially, trust me, he will make a change. To be honest, I thought that Saturday going back to Matt Ryan was a good move. Saturday, so far is 1-0. With all that said, you all know, I hate the Colts with a passion, and want to see them crash and burn every Sunday.
And what he lacks in talent he makes up in heart! Makes me want to root for him.
They tried to get him involved early in the season but he looked overmatched and confused against much better NFL players. He's certainly settled in since then though.

I actually love Kirk cousins to backup your romo point. I have always thought as him as a top in Minny and would love for them to make it out the nfc this year. I think what's crazy with Kirk is how good he consistently seems to play and preform during day games. his night game stuff wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be so thx for finding that research, but the Monday night one is hilarious lol
or @GRo
Rodgers stats looks good in playoffs but unless you actually watching, you wont be able to see how different he plays..
Rodgers is one of the most overrated qbs of all in my opinion. regular season hes good when he beats up the shit lions and bears every year but honestly I truly think Big Ben was a better career qb. as much as I hate that rapist. he is one of the most clutch players of all time
I think Big Ben was severely overrated also. I hate that rapist as well, but I'm not sure he was better than Rodgers. Although, I'll concede that his winning isn't commensurate with his fame. I also think he is a QB that is stats-aware at all times. As an example, he would rather take a sack than throw the ball away to help his completion percentage. He does this over team needs sometimes.
I think he has great hands, but nerves seem to get the better of him in games.
