Wild Card Round Picks and Discussion Thread!

SUNDAY at 4:40 ET – Green Bay Packers (10-6) at Washington Redskins (9-7), WAS by 1 – Speaking of upsets. The Packers have struggled lately and Washington seems to be getting on a track. However, we are still talking about playoff football and Aaron Rodgers vs Kirk Cousins. UPSET!!! GB Packers 24, Washington Redskins 23

Kirk Cousins has beenb etter than Aaron Rodgers over the last month and a half.

And there was a time where Derek Anderson was a top 5 QB, but streaks like that are all destined to end eventually. Playoff football is an entirely different animal from regular season, the Packers are experienced at it, Washington not so much.

@Everlong

So what's up with this prediction?

I never said Cousins was better than Rodgers, my point was that it was kind of silly to make a "Packers will obviously win a Cousins/Rodgers battle" argument given Cousins has been one of the best QBs in the league over the last month and a half.

Not at all surprised Rodgers outplayed Cousins. It just seemed like you were writing him off.

I was writing Cousins off. He was an average QB who got on a hot streak. He'll never play like that again the rest of his career.

Rodgers stats: 21/36 210 yards 2TDs 1int

Cousins stats: 29/46 329 yards 1TDs 0int.
Rodgers out played Cousins, but it wasn't like he beat him by a mile. It also helps that Rodgers had a steady run game.
Cousins was also sacked 6 times. Cousins was in no way the reason Washington lost yesterday. The Redskins terrible D-line and O-line play were the problem. I have to even give Green Bay some credit because the Packers did a good job of making it tough for Redskins' receivers to separate. Cousins was one of the best QBs in the NFL since week 8. That doesn't just happen in the NFL. He will be fine going forward.
