Set it all aside -- Training Camp Begins

[SirLK26]

I seen the praise for Hoffman as well. I think he could earn a spot on the roster. Too early to know anything for sure, but in Keim's roster predictions today, he mentions that he doesn't think Hankerson will be ready to start the season on the active roster, and that Robinson has had a quiet camp in too many ways. Plus, Jay always talks about versatility and Hoffman offers size, like you said, something we lack at receiver.

how many WRs will they keep ? even if Hankerson is on the PUP list, can Hoffman beat-out Moss, Robinson, or Grant ?

My guess is 6: Garcon, DJax, Roberts, Grant, Moss, and then either Robinson or Hoffman. I would say Hankerson, but I think it's doubtful he'll start the season on the active roster.

SMH...RG3 and now Allen obviously can't let go of their disdain for Shanahan. All I remember is everyone saying RG3 was fine and ready to go. Everyone was all smiles on the sidelines during pre season, RG3 is running all around the field during warmups, then they start losing and it's "he shouldn't be on the field." Seriously they just need to let go of last year in the worst way. What's disrespectful was winning 3 games.

Not to cross streams but stuff like this always brings me back to George Mcphee's famous quote, "if you knew enough about the game, you'd be in the game."

If that was the case why is it that almost every fan was screaming for RG3 to come out of that Seattle game and many wanted to wait until after the bye to start him up the following season?

Some of this stuff is clear as day and it's infuriating when the people at the reins can't see what is plainly obvious to regular folk.

I'm more pissed about him starting the year last season, because there is no understandable "heat of the moment" excuse. Allen is throwing himself under the bus for admitting this based in his public comments. It's a troubling sign for the franchise, and all I'll say is pull your head out of your ass and do what's best for the organization next time.

Allen reported to Mike Shanahan at the time. He didn't have the authority to overrule Mike's decision to start RGIII in Game 1 last season.

^ And he would likely not have wanted to say anything contrary to Shanny to the media either.

Are you saying that Allen made logical, measured arguments to not start the season with RG3 and failed? Seems like he was ineffectual at best, at worst he played along and didn't say a peep against his better judgement. Either way it doesn't make Allen look too good imo and no one, not RG3, not Shanny, not Allen, not Snyder should get off the hook for letting it happen. It's exhibit A of a failed season and the 3-13 record are exhibits B-Z.

I tend to agree with your premise. At the same time, the coach is the coach and we don't want an owner or GM overriding the coach on game day right?

Griffin was cleared by the doctors to play. Allen completely contradicted himself. He should just keep quiet.

I agree with you that Allen should just let it go.
