QB Index, Week 12: Kirk Cousins merits long-term deal Published: Nov 22, 2017 at 02:47 AM Around The NFL Podcast Co-Host The ' running game has largely been absent all season. The team's star tight end, , and the big free-agent wide receiver pickup, , . The offensive line has transformed from an a set to a weekly question mark. Yet, has survived and often thrived. Perhaps it took a season like this, where seemingly everything has gone wrong around Cousins, for the front office to buy into him as "The Guy." Washington is unlucky , but Cousins has proved his worth more than he has in any other season by making the players around him better, with in New Orleans standing out among his career-best games. He showed a veteran's ruthle sne s, completing 11 of 14 pa ses for 177 yards and a score to the side of the field that cornerback vacated . Ultimately, Cousins was let down by his defense on a day where he delivered pinpoint touch pa ses down the field with regularity. Cousins won't Riley Sheahan Jersey deal like that every week, but few players do, except Hall of Famers. His tenacious play throughout the season demands acknowledgement that he ranks above the median on The Dalton Scale, the line that separates a franchise quarterback from a guy who needs to be replaced. Cousins is an a set, and I'd be stunned if he's not paid like one in Washington on a long-term deal this offseason. THE BEST OF THE BEST **2017 stats:** 10 games | 68.7 pct | 3,146 pa s yds | 8.3 ypa | 22 pa s TD | 2 INT </content:power-ranking> **2017 stats:** 10 games | 59.7 pct | 2,430 pa s yds | 7.6 ypa | 25 pa s TD | 5 INT | 224 rush yds | 0 rush TD </content:power-ranking> **2017 stats:** 10 games | 62.6 pct | 2,801 pa s yds | 7.4 ypa | 21 pa s TD | 7 INT | 376 rush yds | 2 rush TD </content:power-ranking> **2017 stats:** 10 games | 71.6 pct | 2,783 pa s yds | 8.2 ypa | 15 pa s TD | 5 INT | 2 rush TD </content:power-ranking> This group is starting to separate from the pack. Wentz played a near-perfect second half after a sluggish first 30 minutes, which included six straight failed po se sions. What separates Wentz is his ability to reset and fit pa ses into tight windows making some death-defying escape from a pa s-rusher in the pocket. I can't remember many 168-yard performances that were more impre sive. ... It's amazing how much the ' defense sold out to stop 's running ability, limiting the pa s-rushers coming at him and using to "spy" on him. It's also amazing how often that plan failed, with Wilson rushing for 86 yards. He's reached the rare level of superstardom where we jaw-dropping greatne s on a weekly basis, and he still delivers. ... Brees showed that the can still be explosive through the air, with a four-play, 87-yard, drive to tie the game late in the fourth quarter. Brees leads the NFL in net yards-per-attempt at 7.74, so this team is very efficient pa sing the ball when it needs to be.

He was accurate all over the field, didn't Jeremy Lauzon Women Jersey make a poor decision all night and showed improved timing down the field with his receivers. He's thrown nine touchdowns with two picks over the last five weeks, and both those picks were arguably not his fault. Unlike just about every player in this tier, Ryan is the same, week after week. He's showing signs of hitting a strong closing kick that could have him right back with the top quarterbacks in football. ... Roethlisberger has had brief, great stretches of play this season , but nothing quite like his performance in the second half . He got the ball out of his hand faster, and the team responded with some of the best offensive rhythm it's had all season. I'm very curious to see if they can build on it in an otherwise one-sided matchup with Green Bay NEXT LEVEL **2017 stats:** 9 games | 63.9 pct | 2,191 pa s yds | 6.9 ypa | 14 pa s TD | 8 INT </content:power-ranking> **2017 stats:** 10 games | 60.3 pct | 2,514 pa s yds | 7.1 ypa | 17 pa s TD | 7 INT </content:power-ranking> **2017 stats:** 10 games | 61.3 pct | 2,610 pa s yds | 8.2 ypa | 16 pa s TD | 4 INT | 1 rush TD </content:power-ranking> **2017 stats:** 9 games | 62.6 pct | 2,089 pa s yds | 7.4 ypa | 8 pa s TD | 10 INT | 186 rush yds | 4 rush TD Joonas Donskoi Women Jersey </content:power-ranking> **2017 stats:** 9 games (8 starts) | 65.7 pct | 2,194 pa s yds | 7.3 ypa | 12 pa s TD | 5 INT </content:power-ranking> Goff has made a lot of pretty downfield pa ses this season, but he's ranked relatively low because his succe s is mostly a function of the offense around him. That's not an indictment on Goff; it's the result of great coaching for a second-year quarterback who is learning more every week. He didn't grade out any differently than he did during the ' recent blowout wins. The difference was a defense that didn't set him up on short fields and his teammates ( and a stagnant running game) slowing the team down. Some of coach Sean McVay's schemed-up shot plays didn't pop against an experienced defense. If there is currently a weak point to Goff's game, it's his inability to throw well on the run after he's pre sured. Playing behind this excellent offensive line, Goff fortunately doesn't to escape pre sure that often.
