NFC Notes: Kirk Cousins, Andy Dalton, Buccaneers, Falcons, Panthers

Buccaneers

Falcons

Falcons QB Kirk Cousins admitted that heโ€™s going to have to get used to receiving snaps from left-handed C Ryan Neuzil.

โ€œTypically, the lefty is very different,โ€ Cousins said, via PFT. โ€œHe actually does a pretty good job of making it feel seamless when he snaps it under center. And then the [shotgun] snaps, yeah, the ball may rotate a little different or spin different. But nothing too major as long as you can get used to it.โ€

Panthers

Carolina QB Andy Dalton can relate to QB Bryce Young as he was benched in 2019 after an 0-8 start. Dalton reflected on what the moment taught him and discussed how he uses it to help Young.

โ€œIt was hard, because I had a lot of conversations that seemed like [Taylor] felt differently,โ€ Dalton said, via ESPNโ€™s David Newton. โ€œObviously, I got it. We hadnโ€™t won a game yet, but I felt like there was a lot of other factors involved.โ€

โ€œIt gives me a whole different perspective on this thing [with Young] because Iโ€™ve been through it on every angle. I was able to get back after three games and throw a touchdown that broke the Bengalsโ€™ all-time record for touchdown passes and won a couple of games to finish the season.โ€

Panthers WR Adam Thielen spoke on Young and Daltonโ€™s bond which has helped morale for everyone. 

โ€œThis is a relationship that has been built between the two of them over a long time,โ€ Thielen added. โ€œThey trust each other. They love each other.โ€
