Cousins’ Deep Ball Struggles Loom | Las Vegas Raiders News

The Raiders stunned the Dolphins with a 27-13 win, but Kirk Cousins’ shaky deep ball accuracy—just 1-for-7 on throws over 10 yards—raises serious questions. Despite three touchdowns and a winning record, the team’s offense may be capped without better downfield execution. Rookie QB Fernando Mendoza, the No. 1 pick, didn’t start—something rare for a top draft choice—and management says they’ll stick with Cousins as long as they’re winning. But with a tougher Chargers test looming, the Raiders’ ceiling could hinge on whether Cousins can fix his deep passing woes—or if they’ll need to make a move sooner than later.
