LANDOVER, Md. – Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins will never wow anyone with physical talent. He has enough to be in the NFL, of course, but he’s also limited. That means he needs help. And it means he must find the guys who do have that talent.
That’s how Cousins played a near-perfect game Sunday in the 47-14 victory over New Orleans. Cousins completed 20-of-25 passes for 324 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions for a perfect passer rating of 158.3.
But it wasn’t this jaw-dropping game full of big throws.
