Redskins staying with Cousins at QB despite INTs

ASHBURN, Va. -- The interceptions continue to mount, as do the losses. That hasn't dented Washington Redskins coach Jay Gruden's confidence in starting quarterback Kirk Cousins.

Rather than making a change, Gruden wants to see how Cousins responds to another two-interception game.

Gruden reiterated his belief in Cousins, one day after a 34-20 loss to the New York Jets in which the quarterback tossed two more picks. He's now thrown eight interceptions in six games for the 2-4 Redskins.

"Kirk gives us the best chance to win, still," Gruden said.
