My point is greatness has to overcome adversity in order to be considered great.

People still once in a while (at least in my circles, bring up Andy Reid mispronouncing T.O.s name, when T.O. was new to the team...

Redskins CEO mis-said Kirk Cousins name when he was their #1 QB and trying to sign him to a starting QB contract.


However even the great Aaron frik'n Rodgers has a much higher rating when he's in a clean pocket than when he is under pressure.

With pressure, he's 17th... and is just average as he mentally falls apart... But simply there are times when he's darn good.


And they finally got what I think will be a very good offensive coach, which is what I was hoping there wouldn't...

I know it’s just one game, but I didn’t see much last night that makes me feel like Love has significantly improved like everyone has been saying.

Except you didn't make a point, you were just a pain in the ass because someone said something nice about a division rival, and then cried like a bitch.

But yes, he's great with no pressure, and he sucks with pressure, with a much more extreme than normal.

Cousin is great when he doesn't mentally fold to pressure...

He's also slightly below average (17th best) when he gets pressured, which is a fairly stark contrast, as Beast has already pointed out. This makes him something like an average or slightly above-average QB when considering his overall performance.

In any case, the sexist and homoerotic comments seem a little out of place.

What seemed out of place is his attack on me by calling me a bitch. He gets what he dishes out *shrugs*.


Cant stand posters like him who resort to little kid shit because someone disagrees with your comment. It really is a female trait

There is nothing great about Kirk no matter what nit picking or hot takes take place. That was my main point. Hes always has and always will be avg at best as an overall QB.

Wow....it seems some guys here have their underwear on too tight.🤪😁
Really, a difference of opinion should be treated as such, just opinions. Neither right or wrong.
Cousins is good when given time. Most NFL QBs are!
It's when they are under pressure that makes them great or awful. Otherwise I'd call it "average" at best.
Uh oh.....I'm gonna get BLASTED!!!😀🤪

If only he'd actually care to read and understand the qualifier part of the statement...

And yes, all QBs do better with no pressure, but to swing from top 3 (out of 32) to bottom 16 (out of 32) is a huge freaking swing... might be the biggest swing of any NFL QB, at least of those in the top 10 of either category.

Also, it implies, at least someone has a better ranking with pressure than they do without... Not that they are better, but their ranking is better.

So, Jordan Love. I don't know if it's being fortunate with Favre and Rodgers, but Love release seems slow, or maybe not slow, but just not quick. When I see his arm open up, I can look to see where he's throwing it. Favre and Rodgers, it is more like oh ball out -- follow ball.

I think he has a longer whippier throwing motion, which is to his disadvantage, albeit I think he has a hell of an arm.

We all may recall that Rogers had a much longer throwing motion when he came in from Cal and has, over the years, shortened/quickened it quite a bit.
Go Packers!!!!
