One of Us: Kirk Cousins Did an Interview From a Waffle House Parking Lot After Passing for 500 Yards in a Falcons Win

I must admit, after a shaky Week 1 performance where Kirk Cousins threw two interceptions and still didn't look totally healthy coming off his torn Achilles last season, I was less than thrilled about what the rest of the season was going to look like for the Falcons' offense. It was a disappointing start after expecting to finally see a good offense after several years of utter incompetence. Things still haven't been perfect, but damn if this guy doesn't know how to sling the pill around and put points on the board when his team needs them the most.

And fresh off a franchise record 509 passing yards in a thrilling win, Kirko Chainz is doing interviews from a Waffle House parking lot the next morning. This is our guy.

He's learning how to Swag Surf and celebrating wins with an All-Star Special. That kind of personality combined with being able to complete a forward pass should earn Cousins consideration for the Falcons Ring of Honor after seeing what Atlanta's quarterback situation has been since the departure of Matt Ryan.

Wherever Mr. Chainz leads, we will follow.
