Cool And Calm, Kirk Cousins Leads Comeback Win

Kirk Cousins

There’s the old saying of pressure creates diamonds, and in one of the most difficult situations to be in during a game, Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins turned in quite a gem.

It wasn’t the best of starts for the Redskins on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, as they trailed 24-0 midway through the second quarter.

The offense looked flat and the defense struggled to contain Doug Martin upon first contact. Mike Evans also looked like he’d have a repeat performance from a season ago when he recorded more than 200 yards and two touchdowns as a rookie.
