Kirk Cousins is taking the majority of the blame for the Atlanta Falcons' Week 1 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. And it's not because he's yet to be all the way back from his Achilles injury, he said.

Cousins said Thursday that his right Achilles, which he tore in Week 8 of last season, feels "good" and his struggles Sunday had nothing to do with his health. Cousins had just 19 passing yards in the second half, the lowest second-half total of his career.
