Breed, that's all canceled out with zero running game and an absolutely abysmal run defense. The run defense is huge because teams figured out at the end that if you can run the ball against us, you can milk the clock and keep our offense off the field.
And if you're talking about rankings, how about ESPN's QBR list? It has Cuz at fifth overall. KC didn't just uplift the receivers, he did so for the entire team.
If you don't think so, who would you select as the team's MVP? And outside of Jamison Crowder, RGIII had these same guys and a still effective Alfred Morris. Why did he crap the bed in 2014?
You can't claim the run game contributed nothing to the good and the run defense was abysmal in your opening paragraph. Than claim Kirk uplifted the entire team which by association includes the run game and the run defense with his play in the next paragraph.
With the exception of JC and its only his second year. Nobody on the team performed above and beyond what they are capable of or had a career year. And the most important stat is missing that would proclaim Kirk's ability to uplift those around him. That being victories, at least more victories than the Skins had this year.
Yeah, Kirk's QBR is impressive as are his stats, That QBR and those stats aren't translating too wins though. In fact, when Kirk's stats are gaudy the Skins lost way more games than they won. Some have even opined that, myself included, the Skins have been playing hero ball with Kirk.
I'd have no problem with Kirk being the Skins MVP this year. He'd be a worthy and best possible choice. That still wouldn't automatically equate to him making those around him better.
Cuz Griff became far too full of himself, was ultimately exposed for not being too smart, maybe even not smart enough to be a conventional QB in today's NFL and a few other things. Most importantly though.. He refused to protect himself on the field of play and found out like so many other knuckleheads you can't tell shit to. They have to be shown and and in Griff's case a hard head literally made for a soft and broke the fuck up ass.
