I felt like I was watching Cousins from the Spartan Nation at QB. Step up and throw, don't float it off your back foot!

LOL! I am working on a draft piece and just wrote almost exactly that about Cousins. True for Stafford too except he goes to that sidearm whip throw when he does it. I've never seen that work for anyone but Bernie Kosar.

Not to get too off topic here, but the worst was to watch Cousins loft a ball over Martins head on a freaking screen. He gets happy feet, and it just ruins his accuracy. Maybe someone will fix it when he gets into the NFL, cause I think the guy has good potential, and he makes throws when he really has too.

Darn, Stafford did not get traded to Oakland for an epic haul and major shakeup. I was getting all excited about putting Shaun Hill out on the field to finally make use of him. ;)
