If the Colts defense can continue to improve and Jonathan stays healthy, and say they can add another sure handed WR or TE, our QB won't be expected to carry the team to victory each Sunday, but he will need to be accurate, be smart, and not be a turnover machine. I'm still on the fence as to whether Wentz can be that guy, I wish he would speak up, I'd like to know what he is willing to do to improve his game for next season !!!

Also, to be fair to Cousins, one of those 3 losses came in his rookie season when he had only played in one game prior to that playoff game ...... Robert Griffin III was the Rookie of the year for the Redskins that year, and also started the playoff game in which the Redskins lost. Griffin III led the Redskins to a 14-0 lead before suffering a severe knee injury. At that point, Cousins entered the game and went 3-for-10 for only 31 yards, as the Seahawks outscored the Redskins 24-0 for the remainder of that game. So yes, he was awful in that game ...... but he also essentially had no pro experience prior to that game, and wasn't expected to play at all before he was forced into action because of Griffin III's knee injury.
