Kirk Cousins underwhelms in Washington's victory
Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 18-of-27 passes for just 179 yards and 1 touchdown in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Los Angeles Rams.
What It Means:
The Redskins game plan was relatively conservative versus the Rams as the running game was on fire, gaining 229 yards on 39 carries. Even when Cousins was asked to attempt a pass, most were for short yardage with the longest going for 23 yards. Cousins will likely be asked to do more in Week 3 as the explosive offense of the Oakland Raiders comes to town.
Cousins was projected for 17.7 FanDuel points but ended up with only 11.9 in a disappointing performance.
