Tracee Hamilton in today's Post (Washington Redskins are a tragic comedy on a loop - The Washington Post) says he's 'regressing before our eyes'. In the coaching thread, there are a couple of posters questioning him and saying he should be sat down for the rest of the year and start Cousins.

Personally, I think its a bunch of 'sky is falling' stuff but thought it may warrant some discussion.

He should've been benched last week. Nothing wrong with sitting a guy down but also letting him know he's the guy the remainder of the season.
