    Well a 4th cancellation due to injury for those two wouldn't shock anyone.

    Trust me, number one thing that the most Skins fans agree on is that we wish Allen was out.

    Believe me I'm not happy to have Smith over Kirk. He will be cheaper I suppose, but just feels like us punting on finding a real long term option.

    Messi has his areas where he is superior to Ronaldo, no question, but Ronaldo isn't just a "prolific scorer" either.

    His stats came down a little this past season versus the previous 2, passer rating and Total QBR were outside the top 10 this past season where I think he was top 10 in both the previous 2 years. Like I said, he's a top 10-15 guy who at his best plays like a top 10 guy for sure, but when he's...

    A third year though might have been more guaranteed money overall. Which seems to be the big thing given his current deal. "Franchise QB" is a term I think has to be defined in a certain way for him to qualify. He isn't a guy that can do it on his own. Minnesota is a good spot for him...

    There's a lot of rumors about that offseason. Claims we offered a 3 year deal at $19 mil a year but Cousins' agent told him to bet on himself and just take the tag. With GMSM getting fired last offseason, and Bruce Allen in charge...all sorts of rumors about Kirk's relationship with both and...

    I don't hold ill will towards Cousins at all, for the record. I wish him success in Minnesota (except when he plays us). I'm not sure he's worth the deal he got, but that's the premium. I have a hard time believing him that money didn't matter so much when you go for that deal, which just...

    Cousins signed a 3 year deal, he will absolutely get to play the Redskins during that deal.

    Keep waiting for the next big things to take the mantle of always getting it done in the Champs League in big moments away from him and Ronaldo...still waiting. They're both 30+, now too.

    Although, you should check out how many penalties Wilson also draws to send opponents to the box. Might surprise you. Pretty sure he's first or second best at that on the team. As for the Pens, there's a reason their top 3 are all in the Art Ross race...their PP has been so good. Malkin...

    Like Richardson at half Watkins money. Health is a concern, but I think with how Smith extends plays with his scrambling he could hook up with him for some big plays downfield.

    I remember when I pointed out at start of the playoffs if the Vikings end up losing and gap in QB play was big, that they'd be a dark horse to move on from all 3 of their guys and throw money at Cousins.

    People were just speculating that San Jose might be more of his "scene" whereas Buffalo definitely wasn't. That might help him want to stay there. Seems to be meshing well. That assist on your first goal last night was just a sweet play all around.

    I got to watch a good bit of their games that year. He was not bad that year. Kelly's system may have helped, but he actually showed some progression as a passer that year, imo. No question that team stunk. Try and find basically every receiver they had on that team, think PFF and some other...

    His last year wasn't that bad, with a roster that was worse than last year's Niners team. He opted out of the contract himself, which probably wasn't the smartest move, but seemed like both him and Gabbert wanted out of there. Enter Shanahan and Lynch, roster looks a lot better now...

    I think it would be fun to go one year just to see what it's about. Maybe if my team was in a situation like the Browns this year, 2 picks in top 4, 4 in the top 35, 5 in the top 64.
