After the negotiations debacle, Lamar Jackson is the current hype of the moment and is a star in the build. However, Kirk Cousins is a name that pops out when Jackson is applauded as one of the league’s top QBs. The debate arose during ESPN’s first take when Stephen A. Smith kept Jackson over Cousins. But Mad Dog defended Cousins, which led to a heated argument.

An entire debate culminated in the First Take show. Stephen A. Smith and Mad Dog Chris Russo expressed choosing Lamar Jackson or Kirk Cousins in a must-win situation. When Russo favored Cousins, everything he heard utterly baffled Stephen A. The two got into a roaring war. It produced some excellent entertainment yet again.

Stephen A. Smith mentioned, “I did not say he was flawless. What I said is he’s better than Kirk Cousins! And you don’t need to be mentioning them in the same breath!” He fiercely disagreed with Mad Dog about which quarterback he’d prefer when the game is at stake. Smith added, “Kirk Cousins or Lamar Jackson? Lamar Jackson all day every day! Ahead of Kirk Cousins! What are you (Russo) drinking this morning if you think that Kirk Cousins is Lamar Jackson.”

Jackson had the limelight after the failed contract talks with the Ravens. He is a former NFL MVP and a powerful dual-threat. Each season, his accuracy has evolved, keeping him in a superior division among quarterbacks. Most NFL fans and pundits would see him in higher regard.
