Kirk Cousins's Enormous Boner Wastes Scoring Opportunity
Kirk Cousins responded to a week of positive coverage, for once, by committing a huge blunder.

Kirk Cousins: If RGIII's The Starter, I Want Out
With so many crap teams hitting the reset button today, you may have briefly forgotten about Washington, the kings of dysfunction.
