I TOLD YOU ALL SO!!!


This isn't related just to Robert either because I wouldn't mortgage the future on any unsure thing.

Re: McCoy to Start Against Indy

I think this needed to happen. I think Gruden knew all along that Griffin was just not where he needed to be. I just think Gruden put Griffin in these last few games to show Allen and Snyder that Griffin is not the franchise quarterback they were hoping he was.

So, hopefully Gruden has Snyder and Allen's attention, and hopefully the front office is willing to let Gruden do what he needs to do to turn this team around. This team won't get turned around until some changes in the front office take place, however.

I trust Gruden. I like RGIII, but my eyes don't lie to me. I know what I've seen out on the field, and it's been pretty horrible. The offensive line doesn't help, but Griffin has been horrible.

Congratulations. Can't imagine how good it feels to see the Redskins reach their lowest point in 20 years.

I take no solace in being right about trading a boat load of picks for a guy who isn't a sure thing. Hell, it would seem that should have been common sense. /shrug

Since Shanny had full control, isn't that really all on Shanny?

If memory serves Shanny wasnt sold on taking RG but the owner fell in love and the rest is history.

I thought at the time the Skins didnt have choice but to make a move to get RG. Its a QB league and the Skins needed one badly. Who could have predicted that RG and his Dad were going decide that he had to become a pocket passer at the expense of everything and everyone else.

Mike agreed to that trade very reluctantly

Let me take a wild guess and say that Kyle wanted no part of it?


So you telling me it was lil Danny pushing Mike on that trade?

Kyle wanted Manning and Tannehill/Foles to develop behind him

Mike liked Cousins

Both liked RG3 but did not want to mortgage so much for him

People in the organization pushed Snyder hard (and he in turn pushed Shanny) on the idea that RG3 would be great for the team on the field...but perhaps more importantly off the field

But how many times have I told you there are non-football people in the organization with way too much influence over what football decisions the team makes

This is better than it's been, but it's still a major, major issue

Ok so my memory wasnt too far off. The bottom line is that Shanny wasnt sold on RG.

I guess mike would have rather stayed put and drafted tannehill?

Sucks the owner is still kinda making the draft decisions, especially if bruce was suspect of rg3 all along.

If I remember correctly Shanny came out after the draft and said he was going to take Russell Wilson with the pick he took Cousins with had he been there, so we would have taken Wilson at some point.
