Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins is ahead of schedule with offensive coordinator Zac Robinson.
' new starting quarterback on March 13, he expressed belief that he'd be entering an offense similar to the one he played in the previous two years with the Minnesota Vikings?Coaching trees - both first-year Falcons offensive coordinator Zac Robinson and Vikings head coach and offensive play-caller Kevin O'Connell took their respective jobs after working with the Los Angeles Rams and
"Very similar," Robinson said last week. "Kevin O'Connell took from the Rams and did a lot of the same things. We're kind of in a combination between what they've done here and the run game and some different things than what we've done with the Rams." Robinson said his offense has been a good combination of ingredients, as Cousins is having to learn new information, but there were also lots of concepts that mirrored his time in Minnesota. Now, Cousins knows everything, because it's been firmly installed.
Yates, a seven-year NFL quarterback, spent the past two years as Atlanta's receivers coach, but he's nevertheless been prompted to learn a new offense. The duo has spent lots of time on task together and Cousins has illustrated strong command and anticipation at such an early stage in his acclimation process, though he admitted there are still bumps in the road on occasion.
