Cutler
Locker
Bradford

Outside of pure luck, I don't see us finding a franchise QB this offseason. Instead hopefully we'll find a starter who is a competent short-term rental.

That would be Colt McCoy...

Re: RG3 and Gruden?

At this point it appears to some (like Mike Silver) that Gruden is trying to get himself fired. At minimum it's clear that Griffin isn't going anywhere and it's also clear that he is not Gruden's QB of choice. If he feels painted into a corner where he thinks he can't win, why not try to get out now and collect some cash and then find an OC job somewhere to restore his rep. Another organization may chalk it up to the Redskins stain and allow him another chance in a couple of years.

I'd put it about 20% but I wouldn't be completely surprised to hear of him negotiating his way out of his contract shortly after the season is over.

I'm not dead but this team is dead to me...but now that McCloughan is here they may have new life!

Jay Gruden = Zorny McSpurrier
Kirk Cousins = Next Grossman

Re: RG3 and Gruden?

rg3 in my eyes is somewhat a victim , somewhat tho but he doesn't make things easy for himself rg3 is very talented and it sucks when you have a coach who really doesn't believe in you at all. keep it real colt should be bagging my groceries at my local giant !
rg3 much like any successful quarterback needs help his confidence is very shaken the fans fickle as fuck now wanna get rid of him because of the struggles but when you look at the big picture when was he ever put in a situation to succeed at all ? crap ass oline a coach that rather play a back up I mean wtf...and kirk had his chance to shine and he fucking blew it ...the talent is still there for rg3

Re: RG3 and Gruden?

From a skeptical fan's perspective, I see no reason to go out and get a new QB to run Gruden's dink and dunk offense for one year until Gruden is fired. Colt McCoy and his rag arm will do for that. After next season we can say adios to both Jay and Colt.

It's worst case scenario, so Redskins park will somehow make it happen.

i think the "dink n dunk" is a result of gruden trying to adjust to a weak armed or hesitatnt Qb.

i think the closest we have seen of gruden's ideal offense was when Kirk was working a lot of intermediate routes and using the middle of the field.

So Gruden's ideal offense is throwing lots of interceptions?

No, actually it would involve a QB that can actually find a receiver and get the ball to him. God knows, there have been enough open guys out there...

its part of the long term strategerie.

throw a lot of picks in '14 and put a lot of bad tape out there.

then .. BOOM! 2015 we do the opposite of everything we are doing now and it will take at least until week 14 for D coordinators to get caught up to us.

think long term my friend.

Dink 'n dunk also happens when your pass protection is shotty.

I know, I was merely mocking the idea that some people still seem to have of Kirk Cousins being a football god and that all the Redskins problems will be solved if we play him.

only in the world of the internet does someone saying "kirk gives us the best chance to win" actually mean "kirk is a football god".

nothing is absolute or black and white.

circular discussions like this for the next 8 months until TC starts and everyone will peg the skins as potential playoff team.

rinse, wash, repeat.

Problem is, Kirk doesn't give us the best chance to win

If we're being completely honest, Colt gives us the best chance to win of the three we have right now.

Kirk only beat the Jaguars, probably the worst team in the league, in all the other games he was either mediocre or horrendous
