Kirk Cousins explodes on to the scene: #1 in passing ypg, #4 QB rating, #4 Y/A, #6 TD%

NBC Sports:

Kirk Cousins was the player who made the biggest impact on the NFL on Sunday. ... Cousins was excellent: He completed 30 of his 48 passes, threw three touchdowns, showed off a great arm on deep balls and nice touch on short passes, only had one interception and — maybe most importantly — felt the pressure so well and got the ball away so quickly that he was never sacked. ... Cousins has looked comfortable taking shots downfield. ... Cousins totaled 427 yards on the day, topping Griffin’s career high by 98 yards.

At some point people will learn that offensive stats against the Eagles and for Eagles players should be considered on a curve because of the pace the Eagles play at.

So if you are thinking about signing FA player off the Eagles you need to dig deep into analytics and advanced statistics instead of drooling over raw numbers

Former Steelers coach Bill Cowher:

“This isn’t Kirk Cousins’s job to win,” Cowher said. “Right now this is Kirk Cousins’s job to lose. He isn’t a backup like he talked about."

We'll that and the eagles have no defense at all
