Unlike a lot of QBs he has not been injured a lot and the barnacles affect performance.   He stated in conference this was his first surgery and some have  a few before leaving college.

With defenses adjusting to offenses by getting faster, and playing more 2 high safety looks, he's in an interesting spot.  Where he excels is getting the ball out quickly, and keeping the offense on schedule.  The lack of athleticism though makes it tougher against better defenses though.  Brady was a pre-snap wizard, and his later bucs years were buoyed by a loaded offense at skill positions while also having a top 10 defense. The playoffs are usually lined with teams who have good pass rushers, and are usually coached by better units, and he'll probably need to perform on the road in potentially inclement weather and at least a hostile environment.  .  

 

Having said that - he's excellent in a dome vs outdoors so this is a good landing spot (8-9 at home, plus NO on the road).  He was starting to play better in night games where he was traditionally not very good.  He doesn't take himself too seriously, and he seems like a natural leader type.  The question is whether he can perform in the playoffs when a young team really needs him to.  

 

Cousins only has one playoff win vs. Lamar who has 2.  Cousins only win was in 2019 as well so its not particularly recent.  

i trust cousins more than jackson.
