Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins has been dealing with his fair share of critics this year. He’s constantly compared with his backup, Robert Griffin III, and has had moments where he’s looked downright awful. On Sunday, he finally had a signature game to give his critics something to think about.
Cousins threw three second half touchdown passes as Washington came back from a 24-0 deficit to beat Tampa Bay 31-30. It was the largest comeback in franchise history, and Cousins was a big part of it, throwing for 317 yards and completing the game-winning touchdown pass to Jordan Reed with 28 seconds left.
Cousins was pumped up, and deservedly so. How pumped up, though?
Cousins was apparently directing it at one of the local reporters.
Asked Kirk Cousins who "you like that!!!!" was intended for. Turns out it was @tarikcsn. Not really the answer I expected

Yes, the Buccaneers are bad. But if you lead your team back to win from 24 points down, I’m inclined to say that Cousins can have this one. The former Michigan State star may have been making lame excuses about his turnovers just a short week ago, but we need to give credit where credit is due.
