Cousins completed 22 of 28 passes for 319 yards and four touchdowns and added 11 yards and a touchdown on the ground in Sunday's win over Buffalo.
Cousins doesn't throw multiple touchdowns in a game often, but when he does, he likes to throw at least three. Cousins has passed for one touchdown in 11 games this season, three touchdowns once and four touchdowns twice. Washington plays two middle-of-the-road pass defenses to end the season in Philadelphia and Dallas. History says that Cousins is unlikely to put together huge passing games, but Washington's quarterback has a second skill that could make him an intriguing start. Cousins has rushed for five touchdowns this season, including two in the past two weeks. Only Cam Newton has more among quarterbacks.
