Kirk Cousins completed 23-of-37 passes for 344 yards, zero touchdowns and two interceptions in the Falcons’ 42-21, Week 14 loss to the Falcons.
Cousins’ 344 yards were his second most of the season, but he’s now “up to” eight interceptions and zero touchdowns over his past four starts. Today’s giveaways weren’t as embarrassing as they were in Week 13, but they were not “run of the mill” interceptions. The first was a double-clutch to nowhere, while the second was a down-field Kyle Pitts target that simply sailed. Cousins was trying to go down the field more after looking completely done last weekend, but he seems to have no idea where the ball is going if he actually has to put anything on it. This is, frankly, getting closer and closer to benchable territory, but the Falcons seem loath to order the Michael Penix code red. The Raiders are a much better Week 15 matchup than Minnesota, but Cousins struggles to even crack the top 20 in fantasy anymore.
