AS physically gifted he might be we have bigger needs. Furthermore most heisman winners end up being a bust.....

Mariota is better than Andrew Luck RIGHT NOW! Sounds absurd but give it a couple of years and you will see it for yourself.


...I just hope he doesn't end up with the Redskins.

The only thing that offends me is the fact that it isn't funny. Maybe he could be funnier if his mouth wasn't so full.

I really think Gruden is part of the solution. I'm sure he's still learning the ropes of being the Head Coach.

It's obvious the o-line needs re-vamped and the secondary needs better players.

His failing is probably not being more vocal for o-line upgrades, but can anyone imagine how much his head was spinning during the off-season just trying to watch film, evaluate players he doesn't see every day, etc.?

He deserves at least another year in my opinion before we "blow it all up" AGAIN.[/quote]

I agree that Gruden is part of the solution. However, Allen isnt, he's a big part of the problem and need to go. This team needs a real GM not a director of pants and reunions.

Are you officially following Mariota to his team when when he is draft, gonna make him your permanent, bottom dick?

Just imagine if he ends up with the Eagles, you gonna be air tight.

Re: The everything Gruden thread
 

Does anybody believe Rambo's comment that Redskins aren't required to watch film, wtf?

It is beyond the pale we cut a draft pick who's now playing solid football...for a well coached team. But that's not a surprise. If his statement is true though, I just don't know how anybody on the coaching staff this season can be retained.

If you're having fun on Sundays why does it matter who's on your tv and the jersey you wear in the privacy of your own home?


Don't deny yourself life's little pleasures, it feels good to win!

He clearly never watched any film but if the product on the field is any indication it's hard not to believe him.

No, but I would believe that nobody is checking to see that they do. There is a management saying that goes: "Inspect, don't expect".

Cooley said he pulled into skins team facilities parking lot a few weeks ago and got the first spot right next to the door around 4 pm on a wednesday ... he also said he never really watched film when he went home to do so.

ryan clark took exception to that by not denying that players arent putting in the work but by saying cooley didnt stay late either. would have been great if clark addressed the issue (are skins players putting in the work?) instead of deflecting and addressing cooley's own past habits.

these guys are not putting in the work.

not even close.

they are not professionals.

they are like walmart employees .. doing the bare minimum required.

its on the coaches to prepare and set a professional atmosphere.

its on the players to be professionals, take pride in their work and follow the coaches lead.

Re: The everything Gruden thread
 

^^ That's what I feared. Ugh.

Re: The everything Gruden thread
 

It's about finding the right people. You shouldn't HAVE to force players to watch film in the NFL. They are in a business and if you can't perform in that business you get replaced.

Re: The everything Gruden thread
 

did anyone else see in last nights game at the half, camera shows all the players from both teams heading into the tunnel ... it then shows drew brees for a split second.

he is standing all alone on the sideline looking at film/screen grabs on his ipad.

they also showed a clip of him working on 3-5-7 step drops, talking about his work ethic and dedication.

sigh ...

When did he say that?

Also, this sudden Bacarri Rambo love is hilarious. He repeatedly failed to perform here, wen through multiple workouts for other teams. Good for him for finding a job in Buffalo and for having a good game, but let's not send him to Canton yet
