Schefter,(and other sources): Cousins Starting

[skinsfansince1988]

what do you guys think, does RG3 start next week or not, i would say no doubt he plays against Dallas, not sure about next week

My feeling is, he could've played today. The Redskins and the doctors were being cautious with the injury. Not wanting to take any chances, and thinking long term.

I think he'll play next week, though.

The Dallas game might be a must win. I would prefer he doesn't come in cold off the bench in week 17. If he has a good week at practice he will probably get the nod. If not then we are in good hands with Cousins. This isn't like SF where Alex Smith was weaksauce. Cousins is starter quality but he is no Rg3.

that's my feeling too, i think they knew the Browns were overrated

[Gibbit]

absolutely. They wont be able to keep him off the field next week if they wanted to

Looks like my worries were unfounded. Cousins was really impressive today. Nice job rook!

I think the loutd mouthed Irvin underestimates the character of this team. RG III is a great leader and the unquestioned face and future of the franchise. But there are too many warriors on this team now to give up without a fight. Guys like Fletch, Moss, Alexander, Cooley (who has been getting more time lately), will all step it up a notch. I think even Hall will be tougher. Almo will run harder, the line will block a little better and receivers will give more effort to get open. And Kirk throws a very catchable pass and makes quick reads.

[B]You know Kyle is chomping at the bit to show people that he can scheme it up with the best of them. So expect to see some schemes that even Rex Grossman could be successful with journeyman receivers to be shown today.[/B]

This is bigger than RG III. I think these guys smell the playoffs. It's never about one guy. And as much as they all respect and love Robert you know they're men who have some pride. This is an opportunity for them to go out and show their peers that this ain't a one man show. I'm not going to call it a win but I'm going to say it's gonna be a damn great effort by the team. They're not gonna sulk and pout like Irvin says.

Yep; I called this

I like using words out of context to annoy people. Plus how can anyone really know exactly how to translate a latin word in English even if they are a linguist. The dictionary has as many as 7 definitions for words that originate in other languages in some cases. I appreciate the correction but I'm not that guy who is anal about being accurate about anything. I'm pretty much making fun of all the people who use intellectual words when dumbing it down will do. I enjoy creating my own language and meanings for words. I'm a little crazy that way. I do still have the first amendment on my side don't I? lol Hail!!!
