Tonight the Giants play the Redskins, let's hope Cousins continues to shine.

Kirk cousins playing poorly, constant pressure in his face and making several risky throws. 4ints thrown, probably ruined his only chance to start full time for Washington. This game will be held against him for a long time.
On the other side Eli has 4tds passing and 1td rushing.

Hillis almost had a garbage time TD running as the lead back from the I. Would have been nice to see him with a TD in the boxscore.

Nah, if he wins next game, its all forgotten. Cousins thought his arm strength could change the game. He got carried away with his strengths. He will learn from this as most intelligent White men do from their mistakes. He has to win this weekend tho, to put it behind him.

I tuned in briefly and the 'Skins were down 21-7 and the camera kept panning to Washington player #83 (white) sitting on the bench. He didn't look happy. Couldn't stick around to find out what that was about

That was TE Logan Paulson. He had just fumbled the ball inside the Giants 20. It was a big turning point because the game could've been 21-14 heading into halftime, instead of 24-7.

As others mentioned, an ugly night. But Cousins' margin of error has shrunk dramatically now. He has to win the next game, but it won't be an easy one against the Blackhawks.

All we can hope for is Tom Iron's mantra to carry the day for the black hawks, "all blacks louse up sooner or later, can't help themselves". WTF ever happened to that guy? Anyone know? I know he changed his Avatar/ name.

The redskins aren't a good team. Eli picked apart that secondary, he made former 2nd round pick David amerson look foolish all game. Cousins actually pushes the ball down the field instead of dinking and dunking the ball like the gremlin. He didn't have a great performance that's for sure but i think he will learn from his mistakes. That was his 6th start I believe.

what an awful, awful night
Let's not go overboard. Cousins had a bad game after last week's excellent game. If anything he's even. Let's give him a chance to redeem himself.

As for the rest of the game, there were some positives. Eli looked great for the second week in a row. He was a borderline elite quarterback not too long ago. It'd be nice if he reestablishes himself this year. Peyton Hillis got carries and Mark Herzlich looked good in a spot start. Ryan Kerrigan reclaimed the NFL sack lead for the moment. He now has 5.

Amerson and Rambo are horrible.

Kirk Cousins played so mysteriously poorly the other night that it defies all logic. He was never really under pressure, but still missed the target time, and time again. Despite having good protection he forced the ball into coverage, and basically played like an 8th grade B team back up.

bigunreal could have a field day with Kirks performance......I know, I know..."TIN FOIL HAT"!!!!

That was on of the knocks on him in college. He'd look like Joe Montana one week and then be unable to hit the broadside of a barn the next week.

Turned it off in the third quarter when it became too lopsided. Kinda wish I'd kept it on to see Hillis get some action.

It's been a bad season so far, from racial and non-racial perspectives. Too many blowouts.

Green Bay's secondary is a joke. Clinton-Dix misses a tackle, and John Lynch makes a hero out of him. :noidea: Yes, a black player literally screwed up and, the commentators made it sound like he did something spectacular.

Jordy Nelson's having another great game already.

Tannehill has been throwing darts all over the field! Hopefully this shuts up the Miami DWF's calls to draft "Famous Jameis"

Geno Smiff is 4/12 for 32 yards. Atleast he tries to air it out though which is more than I can say for RGScreen.

Yes, Carolina's D is looking super pale. And Kuechly's all over the place! Too bad the ebony secondary is making them all look bad.

At least Newton is looking clumsy as usual.

Good 1st halves from Jordy and Hartline. Luck, Rodgers, Tannehill, Flacco, Stafford, Cutler and Roethlisberger all with huge 1st halves. Cam, Geno and EJ can only dream of putting up those kind of passing stats.
