Falcons' disastrous Week 14 loss sent a long overdue message to Kirk Cousins

The Atlanta Falcons looked like a dumpster fire in their Week 14 loss to the Seattle Seahawks loss. The second half came with a collapse of epic proportions as Atlanta fell 37-9 and were eliminated from playoff contention while Kirk Cousins turned in by far his worst start of the season on Sunday.

The 37-year-old completed just 50% against his passes and threw two interceptions in Week 14 as his 162 passing yards marked the lowest in a single start this season. Yes, it came against against a stout Seattle defense, but Cousins' performance effectively shut the door on any future as a starter.
