After he threw four interceptions against the Giants in Week 4, Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins didn't find too many takers for Week 5 against the Seahawks. Nobody really knew whether the four interceptions or the three touchdown passes in Week 3 was the fluke, and besides, you'd sit just about any quarterback against the Seahawks.
Turns out that even though the Redskins lost, those Fantasy owners who actually started Cousins in 8 percent of leagues may not have. He had another strong showing, throwing for 283 yards and two touchdowns to give him three good performances in four.
Predictability is a concern for him -- the Giants didn't look like they'd be a tough matchup -- but if Cousins performs well again Week 6 at Arizona, he'll have definitively regained my trust. The position is deep enough that he may not deserve to start for you, but he needs to be owned, if only as a backup.
