The Atlanta Falcons traveled to Tampa Bay on Sunday to take on the Buccaneers. Atlanta walked away with a win, and maybe some of it can be attributed to Kirk Cousin’s pre-game speech.
Because of his personality, Cousins has been a fan favorite for most of the teams he plays for, and Atlanta has been no different.
For most teams, the quarterback attempts to hype up his team before the game starts, and Cousins has delivered one of the most iconic ones.
“We grind, we scrap. We fight, no cap. We walk in your trap, take over your trap,” he said, surrounded by his teammates.

Kirk Cousins Put On A Show In Tampa Bay
Even if his teammates didn’t seem hyped after the speech, Cousins certainly was.
Against the Buccaneers, he completed 23 of 29 passes for 276 yards, four touchdowns, and zero interceptions for a 145.9 passer rating.
Cousins has proven his four-year deal worth $180 million with Atlanta was well worth it.
