All Fantasy Football Happy Hour with Matthew Berry insights about Kirk Cousins
PositiveProjectionOct 6, 2026
Three straight games with 20+ fantasy points; top-10 fantasy quarterback so far this season; Matthew Berry believes people are overweighting the Achilles injury narrative from last year; Raiders are 3-1 and he's playing well; doing this without a true number-one receiver (Brock Bowers helps but not greatest weapons); good running game helps; Cousins appears 100% healthy now, getting outside pocket which he never did before; tough matchup on road at New England this week but more interesting than not in deeper leagues.NegativeRoleAug 14, 2026
Matthew Berry and Peter Overzet confirm Kirk Cousins is the expected Week 1 starter, though Overzet suggests the team may turn to Fernando Mendoza as early as Week 2 or 3 if Cousins struggles, similar to the team's quick pivot to Michael Penix last year.
