BCB is gonna be back... if we get Cousins then there is no rush to bring him back too quickly and let his elbow heal properly
Cousins is old mediocre and expensive.
Brock >>> Cousins
Cousins has played in 16 or more games in 8 straight seasons. Brock already has had more significant injuries than Cousins has had during that time. If we can trade for Cousins, we should do it. He may be only slightly better than Jimmy, but at least he's reliable which is more than any other QB in the KS era can say.
He folds like cheap suit in big games.
Paying top dollar for a QB should get you top qb play, not average play.
No different than the other QBs we've had under Kyle. At least he stays healthy.
Brock never folded.
He kind of did against the Eagles. Part of winning big games is staying in them. We can say its a fluke injury, but its the kind of fluke that Cousins has avoided for 8 straight years whereas Brock was injured twice in 8 games.
This is such a dumb comment.
QBs can get injured at any point. That injury was super friggin flukey and Cousins sucking in big moments is way worse than Brock getting injured. Brock played in more games this season than Kirk did his first 2 years in the league anyways.
Not to mention Brock literally didn't fold. Hell if he folded on that play he wouldn't have gotten injured. Dude stood in there and took a hit.
QBs can get injured at any point, but some QBs clearly get injured more often than others. Brock also turned the ball over on that play, which was not exactly a great sign even before it turned out he was injured.
This is the same stupid logic that had people calling Bosa injury prone after his ACL tear. I don't care who you are but if you get hit at a certain point in the right spot or get enough weight on you in a certain spot you're getting injured.
Brock took a shot to the perfect spot at his most vulnerable point during the delivery. I highly doubt any QB is able to hold onto the ball there.
You equating an injury to folding is beyond crazy. If anything he didn't get the ball out with anticipation or spotted Reddick in time to try to protect himself and live to play another down.
That's more of a rookie mistake and not even anything crazy than anywhere near "folding". Like I said before folding actually would've been better on that play.
Cousins hasn't shown anything he can do better than what Brock did as a rookie and that's kind of crazy to think about given how many more games Kirk has played. Yes he's stayed healthy so perhaps there's a feather in his cap there but the way our season went last year…Cousins probably walks away on a stretcher as well. Then again maybe because he actually folds hed manage to stay healthy.
But no matter how you slice it…Brock > Cousins.
