I completely agree. The tone of the article is unreasonably negative, does he have something against Jay? It is also completely BS.

Also, yes, there has been progression clearly. In our Oline, our secondary, most obviously QB and Head Coach, and now the Front 7 on D are even starting to have more of an impact. The only area we have regressed in is our running game, and as you mentioned, we have had our share of injuries that have contributed to that.

Romo certainly would have had an impact on this season, and for the sake of argument lets just say he would have carried his clearly otherwise awful team to the playoffs. Even if that is the case, isn't that an indictment on their organization for not having a decent enough backup QB for their clearly injury prone starter? Or some kind of succession plan? At least the Redskins had a backup plan for if RG3's injury prone ass busted.

The window has closed on Romo, he choked early in his career, and he's tough, but his body just can't hold up to the beating it takes. 3 years in a row now he has had major injuries, and in 2010 he missed 10 games. Seriously, how do you not have a backup plan for him? Especially when apparently your entire season hinges on the production at the QB position.

With all that said, yeah the Redskins are clearly still mediocre and have benefited from unusually bad seasons by their division rivals, but why not mention the progression and the seeming change in trajectory under the current leadership? Unless of course you are a Cowboys homer.
