What anti-Kirk guys? I know of several anti-bad-playing-Kirk guys, but no one that is anti-Kirk in general.

There are at least 2 on this board who show up after a bad game and clamor for the 3rd stringer, and then disappear after a good game.

Now he has. And he ran one in to boot. But he threw Zero Interceptions so there's nothing for anyone to complain about until next week.

Much as there had been several victims of Griffin psychosis syndrome... The point being, so what?
All this squabbling over a trio of flawed quarterbacks... Serves no purpose.
Btw... I follow the Redskins, and I like Sonny. At least that controversy involved good quarterbacks...

I get the any given Sunday, every team has good players bit, I truly do. But I think you'd be lying if you told me when u looked at the schedule when u first saw "vs Bucs", and thought it'd be a shoot out, or anything other then a W.
They suck. Worst team last year, worse then even us. We are supposed to beat the lesser teams, but unlike NE we don't always do so.
The hard fighting and never giving up was a good thing to see yesterday.. making a 1 pt victory over a super crappy team isn't cause for parades tho. Had this exact game unfolded vs NE, I'd be a lot more excited today.

Did Mariota come from behind a 24 point deficit to win the game? Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't he also only throw for 15 times that game? And didn't the Titans have a huge day running? You know, something that Cousins didn't have yesterday?

Backup QB at best. Temper your excitement.

I find your post surprising since you are a self-proclaimed kool-aid drinker and optimist. I recall a MANY a posts from you proclaiming "a win is a win". Now we are getting a completely different poster....... Interesting.

Pretty sure they never trailed to the crappy bucs...
I'm sorry if u think I'm posting anti Kirk posts.. I'm Soooooo down for this scrappy pist off Kirk that was unleashed yesterday. I won't apologize for not getting to up on beating a garbage team... We literally almost lost to. That lb holds on to that gifted game winning int, and Kirk goes from hero to ZERO, that quick. I see that. I see that we even had to climb a 24 point deficit. I also saw a lot of people give up on the team yesterday.
My biggest takeaway is the TEAM didn't give up. The D, for all their woes held strong in the 2nd half.
Kirk balled in the 2nd half too.
Much to build on. Sweet W

You are so wrong about so much here, it's almost constant drivelI know you're not referring to me, I'm here all the time and I'm certainly not wanting Griffin in there ... well, not just yet anyway

speaking for myself, I'm glad that Cousins had a great day - I'd like to see that type of performance on a regular basis - he has 2 weeks to get ready for a good test against a very good defense - let's see how that little test goes shall we

Not sure what ya mean boss, I was pumped up when we made the comeback yesterday... I love a win as much as the next guy... But watching the game in a public setting- I haven't forgotten the embarrassment that was the first half.
A win is a win, and we won! High fives all around
markshark84 wrote: Well, I thought it was "winnable" but nothing near "anything other than a W" --- especially when you consider the fact we got shalacked against them after a bye week at home last season -- and that was against an even MORE SUPER CRAPPY team than they are this year.
Regardless, if this game proved anything it is that we have DRASTICALLY improved from last season ---- if you take the way we played against the lowely SUPER CRAPPY BUCS from last year.
The BUCS game last season was a true embarassment. The biggest we have had as an organization in quite some time -- and IMHO why we lost 5 of our last 6 games. However, this past Sunday, our team rallyed from a franchise high deficit to win. We didn't fold like we did last year. It was a good thing to see.
I find your post surprising since you are a self-proclaimed kool-aid drinker and optimist. I recall a MANY a posts from you proclaiming "a win is a win". Now we are getting a completely different poster....... Interesting.
Regardless, no NFL team is easy. We have shown we are clearly a better team compared to the one we put out there last season -- at least be happy about that. Improvement takes time, especially when you have so many weaknesses in your roster to fill in. We aren't going to put up points against NE like we did against the BUCS because NE is the best team in football. Our team isn't nearly as talented as the NYJs and it showed..... and NE is more talented than NYJ. We don't have the all around talent to come back from 24 against a disciplined and talented team like NE. So don't get too excited......

And what about the 1-8 Bucs that beat us last year?
You blamed the o-line last year. And not one word was mentioned about how horrible the Bucs are. I don't consider you anti-Kirk, but you certainly post with an anti-Kirk bias.
