All last week we talked about how if you could pressure Kirk Cousins, he'd crumble. So why was he even better under pressure against the Cowboys than when in a clean pocket? Broaddus breaks down all the film from the Cowboys' loss to the Falcons in the video above.

00:00Well, before I get started on this, you know, all week we talked about Kurt Cousins and
00:20how different he was when you played against him when he put pressure on him and when he
00:26didn't have pressure.
00:27Yeah.
00:29Biggest splits in the league when pressure did not pressure.
00:32Yeah.
00:33No blitz yesterday.
00:34No pressure.
00:35He was 13 of 15 for 145 and two touchdowns with no blitz.
00:39But what was different about yesterday for him is under pressure he was 8 of 11 for 110
00:46yards and a touchdown.
00:47And he was 6 of 9 for 77 yards and a touchdown against the Blitz.
00:53Why is that?
00:54Why is that all week long you talk about, you know, if you can get a guy, you blitz
00:58him, you put pressure on him.
01:00They sacked him.
01:01Didn't they sack him twice on some blitzes?
01:03Twice.
01:04Yeah.
01:05So two of them, two of them worked out for you.
01:06But yeah.
01:07Yeah.
01:08By and large.
01:09That's the thing that's disappointing.
01:10A little bit disheartening.
01:11If you know, you feel like that everybody else in the league finds a way to get pressure
01:15on this guy or they, when they do that, he's a different player that he doesn't play at
01:20a very high level.
01:22And then you actually do get some pressure on him and he, he hits you for 8 of 11 in
01:28this football game.
01:29It just seems like that's the way it goes right now for this team.
01:31They're absolutely sneak bit.
01:32Yeah.
01:33They're not good at getting pressure.
01:34And then what happens?
01:35They have a great day against you.
01:37Well, and T look, we were talking about last week and even there, you know, Eric and I
01:41were talking about it in the, in the pregame yesterday, they're another team that doesn't
01:44get pressure.
01:45They found a way to play the twist game.
01:48Mike McCarthy's talked about this a bunch that people, when they move the front up,
01:52you know, against the Cowboys, they have problem.
01:55Dallas has problems picking up twist stunts.
01:58That's what got you yesterday a little bit.
02:00And that was, that was something that they just haven't done a very good job of, of being
02:04able to kind of sort those things out.
02:07It's been a problem.
02:08All right.
02:09Uh, things I want to guys, I want to kind of kind of give a little tip of the cap of
02:12guys that on the tape that I think played pretty well.
02:15Rico Dowdle, I think played well for you.
02:17Oso Diggies, who I think played well for you, Carl Lawson, I think played well for you.
