Cousins' 19 TDs lead the league, but his pressure metrics (50.1 grade) expose vulnerability.

Cousins is having a career resurgence with the third-most passing yards (2,124) and second-most touchdowns (19) through eight weeks. With a clean pocket, he ranks 10th in passing grade (88.4), tied for seventh in big-time throws (seven), and tied for eighth-fewest turnover-worthy plays (two) among 35 qualifying quarterbacks. However, his performance deteriorates significantly under pressure: passing grade drops to 15th (50.1), big-time throws fall to tied for 17th (three), and turnover-worthy plays rise to tied for 13th-most (five), exposing his lack of mobility and arm strength at age 38.
