Great work as always Kirk Cousins! My hometown boy:) Being a tremendous Michigan State fan I am very pleasantly pleased how Kirk did. Thanks for voting him as rc of the week Panini.
Redskins 9 out of 15 weeks
and the last 5 weeks in a row got to love it
I think it should have been Wilson with 4 tds. But Cousins did a great job stepping in.
