Blustering in from sea, With a rollicking Hyeon-jong Yang Jersey song, he sweeps along, Swaggering boisterously. His face is weather beaten. He wears a hooded sash, With a silver hat about his head, And a bristling black mustache. He growls as he storms the country, A villain big and bold. And the trees all shake and quiver and quake, As he robs them of their gold. The Autumn Wind is a Raider, Pillaging just for fun. He'll knock you 'round and upside down, And laugh when he's conquered and won. Definitely not a bad way for Kirk to start his Raiders career. Will Kirk Cousins start?
