So sad but so true. Snyder will not let go of this team anytime soon. We just have to stop supporting it. Stop buying merchandise and stop going to games. They were calling for this on Comcast today (Feinstein was).

This is exactly why Snyder will never sell the team, he is making a killing. There is not a chance in hell that fans will stop buying gear and quit going to the games. The people at the games aren't hard nose football fans so what do they care?

Yeah he really does like Tebow a lot. I'm still unsure on Tebow. He's not a conventional QB, but so what maybe he's got "it" Probably not my top choice though

He plays with a passion that I rarely see. Maybe Gruden and Tebow can light a fire under this team. Haha, just trying to stay positive.

Somehow it still feels like the offseason around here. I think that's the culture that Snyder has fostered that instead of looking to the next game, we're looking towards the next press conference.

In the past 10 days 'sources' have said that Shanahan, Gruden and Holmgren are all done deals. 'Sources' have said that Ceratto will be promoted/demoted and that he will be left in place. 'Sources' have said that Shanahan would work with Vinny and won't work with Vinny.

Anyone else exhausted? I think the anticipation and rumors are more exasperating than the games! I hadn't been this engrossed in Redskins drama since the Cutler/Sanchez days.

Probably not my first choice either, and definitely needs a lot of polish if he wants to be a successful NFL QB, but Gruden is great with quarterbacks...

Tebow's big toe has more intangibles than Jason Campbell.

I don't think Gruden will have a problem getting any player he wanted. Gibbs got everyone he wanted, Spurrier brought in almost everyone he's ever coached in Florida;) Also, I remember before the 2001 draft Synder was drooling over Santana Moss, but Schottenheimer coveted the bust Rob Gardener and we end up drafting him, even though Snyder wanted Moss. What I'm saying is, Gruden will get his players, Synder has relented in the past.

Absolutely agree. Arguably that's one of Snyder's/the Front Office's biggest weaknesses. Greg Blache you want Adam Archuleta? Here you go. Al Saunders you want Brandon Lloyd? No problem we'll get it done. Joe Gibbs you need TJ Duckett? Take him. There's not enough "no"

I think he has the talent to be an NFL player, full-time QB I'm not sure. I think people dismiss him because he's unconventional but it could work. Again, he's not my top choice if we were to draft a QB.

and then there's "oooh this guy is awesome we need him" like the AH deal, now AH is arguably the best guy at his position, but why not bring in someone like Canty and then spread some of that money around? God forbid a starter get hurt because there's nobody behind them that's starting quality. Look at the giants line, they've got enough for 2 formidable squads.. so you don't lose the whole group if one guy gets hurt -- plus you have some bait to dangle when somebody wants to trade for a great player

despite the highest money spent on the roster, nobody wants our guys except maybe cooley.. nobody else is worth taking the contract of, we need to look at how we do that while we're speaking of FO inadequacies.. it gets us by year to year but holds us back big time, you can't trade for picks, you have to wait 2 years to cut a guy that you couldn't even get a 7th round pick for, etc

Every QB is a crapshoot coming out of college really. For every Ben Roethlisberger, there's an Alex Smith. You just never know.

Tebow is a leader, a physical specimen, and can sling the ball. He may not have a pretty delivery, but just because Kiper and McShay aren't sold on him doesn't mean he won't be any good. He's certainly not the "joke" you think he is. Chad Bradford is a fragile statue, and I'm not so sure about Colt McCoy either. If I had to guess, I'd say Tony Pike will be the best pro QB out of the current senior class. Case Keenum is pretty darn good too, but he's a junior.

Heck...who thought we'd be respected again after Danny's clowns with Spurriers gators.
All it took was a half a season without Gibbs to have everything start to collapse again.

I really think a lot of you have underestimated how well Gibbs did under the circumstances....to me....if the best Gibbs could do is win a playoff game...thats as good as is possible under the current management.

The only person that could do as well or better would be Parcells...and he aint going anywhere....and to be honest...I don't like him.
I am pretty worried about the next 3-4 years unless something major is changed...and I am not just talking about a new coach[/quote]

Haha probably. When we used that timeout on 1st down in the second half I threw a huge couch pillow at my television and cussed like a sailor. My fiancee was just looking at me like I'm a crazy man. She gets it though. Next to the safety on CP, that was the most pathetic play of the game IMO.

Re: Sources: Gruden the front runner
 
We've got a lot of problems that Jon Gruden can't fix right away (offensive line talent mainly) . But he's still an upgrade over Zorn. Like Gibbs, the team absolutely will not quit on Gruden. The team's already showing signs of fracture under Zorn, it's not a good sign.

That said, things can change quickly in the NFL. The 'Skins were 0-5 under Marty and looked horrendous until they suddenly got good and finished 8-3.

I don't see that happening here because our talent problems run deep, but still. I can't give up hope yet.

Re: Sources: Gruden the front runner
 
[quote=maroonandblack30;607263]I do... Steve Czban (sp) put it perfectly into words today on his radio show. Ill summarize.

Vinny is the only "GM" willing to be Snyder's proxy, Snyder could never relinquish control of the team to any true GM that knows the game. Using Vinny gives the appearance that Danny boy isn't calling the shots. Vinny is obviously a horrible football guy, has no clue how to pick the players or coaches, and he knows this so in order to keep a job, he just lets Snyder pull his strings. Lets face it, Snyder would probably rather sell the team than let someone else have control over football operations.

Thats probably the main reason Marty was one and done...Snyder couldn't handle not having his hands in the cookie jar. And ironically enough that was the one year I thought the Skins were headed in the right direction.

If Vinny goes, what other GM is going to come hear and let Snyder have final say? What coach is going to come hear that isn't allowed to pick their assistants? This franchise is doomed until Snyder puts his ego aside and lets someone who knows what they are doing call the shots.[/quote]

I like Jon "Chucky" Gruden at least he is a no nonse type of HC. The crap our soft players get a way with wont fly with Gruden. If you make a mistake and you come to the sideline you will get the look of death from him and a earful. I rather have a young coach like Gruden that has a Super Bowl Resume than both Holmgren and Shanahan.
We need a kick ass and take names coach.

Tim Tebow Scouting Report
 
If Gruden really wants Tebow then I wouldn't be opposed to it. Right now Scouts Inc has him graded as a mid to late second rounder. If we could draft a top tier Offensive Tackle then get a QB like Tebow in the second, with a big pile driving Center in the third then I would be one happy fan.

I will say this though. The Offensive Line needs at least 3 new starters next year. Mainly at C, RG, and RT.

Here's how Tebow grades out to all those who were wondering.

[B]Overall Grade 83[/B]

[B]1[/B] = Exceptional[B]2[/B] = Above average[B]3[/B] = Average[B]4[/B] = Below average[B]5[/B] = Marginal

[B]Production[/B] - 1 - Notable accomplishments: the only sophomore ever to win the Heisman Trophy, the only player in NCAA history to rush and pass for at least 20 touchdowns in a season (2007), and only the second player to ever repeat as Maxwell Award winner (2007-08).
[B]
Height-Weight Speed - [/B]2 - Possesses adequate height and very good speed for the position. A workout warrior who is thickly built with unusual muscle mass for a QB. If anything, he could benefit from a weight lifting program tailored more to the quarterback position.

[B]Durability - [/B]2 - Has held up remarkably well considering the pounding he has endured during three collegiate seasons (2006-08). Has started all 27 games the past two seasons. Keeps body in peak physical condition.

[B]Intangibles - [/B]5 - Tim Tebow eats babies and spends Friday night tagging new territories for his gang. On Monday he collects protection money from Chuck Norris.

Oh and this:

Rare intangibles and work ethic. The ultimate team player. Exceptional mental and physical toughness. Temptations that can accompany NFL money and lifestyle will have zero affect on Tebow.

[B]Mental Markup[/B] -2 - Rare mental toughness. Very few are blessed with his natural competitiveness, leadership skills and work ethic. Both a vocal leader and leader by example. However, there are some concerns regarding his mental aptitude in the passing game. He comes from a unique spread-formation offense so it can be difficult at times to differentiate instincts from inexperience. The bottom line is that he's nowhere near ready to make the kind of coverage reads necessary to succeed as a passer in the NFL.

[B]Accuracy[/B] -4 - Flashes great touch and the ability to fit the ball into tight spots down the field but is far too inconsistent with his overall accuracy. Needs to learn to change velocities and show better touch on underneath throws. Deep ball will flutter and float too often. Footwork is erratic and accuracy suffers as a result. He frequently operates with enormous passing windows, which allow him to miss within the strike zone with no consequence. He completes a lot of passes that will throw his receiver off course, thus eliminating potential yards after catch. Many of those misses within the strike zone will either be batted down or picked off in the NFL.

[B]Release[/B] - 4 - Reportedly is working with new QB coach to get the ball out quicker and more over-the-top as a senior. On 2007 and 2008 film Tebow takes entirely too long getting the ball out. It will be difficult to succeed in the NFL with the elongated, three-quarter delivery that he has used the past two seasons.

[B]Arm Strength - [/B]2 - Overall arm strength is good but not elite. Gets good zip on deep out throws. Can fit the ball into tight spots in intermediate zone. Deep ball has a tendency to flutter and will get hung up in the air at times.

[B]Mobility - [/B]2 - Foot quickness and elusiveness are good but not elite. Displays excellent feel for pocket collapsing around him. Accuracy as a passer does not suffer much when he throws on the run. Also shows ability to throw with defenders hanging from his legs. Rare competitiveness as a runner. Also possesses excellent power, great vision and adequate-to-good speed when he breaks the pocket as a ball carrier. Few QBs enter the NFL with as much experience running the football: Tebow has 475 carries during his first three seasons, the most ever by an SEC QB.

[quote=WaldSkins;607447]We traded our third to select Jarmon[/quote]

Well then I can live with a franchise tackle and a QB like Tebow in the second. I know a lot of people don't like him as an NFL QB but I personally think he's a lot like Ben Roethlisberger. God knows this team is short of leaders. There's only so much Fletcher can do.

Plus how can you hate a QB that played NT in the state championship game right after running the ball for 80 yards.

Gruden on Tebow:
[quote]When he was a high school senior, they played Armwood in the state championship game. I have tape. He has an 80-yard touchdown run that put them in the lead. When it flipped around, and Armwood had the ball, what position do you think Tebow was playing? He was playing nose guard - and he disrupted about 10 plays. This guy is totally different. He's got Rich Gannon, Drew Brees, that kind of makeup as a team guy. What he said after the Ole Miss game, I said, 'That's my favorite football player I've ever seen in my whole life.' I said, 'I want Florida to win every game that kid plays from now on.'"[/quote]

Re: Sources: Gruden the front runner
 
[quote=skins89moss;607401]They are so sick of watching our offense not score that they are talking themselves into wanting Tebow as our QB. he better be drafted no earlier that the 4th round than maybe.[/quote]

After watching the Dolphins and their Wildcat -Single Wing- offense terrorize the Jets defense tonight i believe Tebow will be drafted to fill that role if nothing else. Is he a starter in this league? time will tell but as long as there are teams running the cat there is a place for a guy with his talents on their roster.

Re: Tim Tebow Scouting Report
 
[quote=Dirtbag359;607448]Well then I can live with a franchise tackle and a QB like Tebow in the second. I know a lot of people don't like him as an NFL QB but I personally think he's a lot like Ben Roethlisberger. God knows this team is short of leaders. There's only so much Fletcher can do.

Plus how can you hate a QB that played NT in the state championship game right after running the ball for 80 yards.

Another Gruden quote on Tebow: "That guy is 250 lbs of concrete cyanide man. And he can throw."
