right, they are at the exact point in their overall plan as the Saints. Plan A was for Carr / Cousins to lead their teams to the Superbowl. Then play a couple more years of high quality ball while the rookie learns. The injury to Carr had the Saints move to their plan B, which is, to forgo the learning and immediately develop the rookie. Cousins, playing extremely bad ball caused them to go to their plan B. I don't consider either of these plans "brilliant."
