Granted maybe the benching gave Griffin some necessary humbling and perspective but the drama & circus around it is so tiresome.

All that being said, if he's committed to developing a starting QB and designing an offense to make him (whomever it is) successful and a winner then I'm fine with Gruden hanging around.

As for Griffin's side of things, he needs to spend less time in the weight room (all of the endorsement/social media stuff doesn't bother me) and more time in the classroom. I'd love it if we brought in a older veteran (like the Colts did with Hasselbeck) to be a true mentor on those things for him.

Either way and especially if Cousins is still here, training camp should be a true competition and consider all aspects in naming a starter. Nothing given, all earned.


Not only at the QB position, but almost every position outside of Kerrigan, Breeland, Morris and Williams.

Yes I would add those two as well and perhaps Robinson too.

Absolutely. Griffin was appointed the starter from his first practice and never had to 'earn' anything. Even after getting benched last year he was re-appointed without a competition when Gruden was hired. I think he needed the wake up call and for him to have to fight for his job a little.

Make it clear to him that he's on the same level as Cousins, McCoy or whomever else is brought in and nothing is given to him.

I have been and still am a huge Griffin supporter. If this season is what was needed for him to take the next step to being a franchise QB then I'll willingly take the lumps.

That said for Gruden's sake, it better have worked or else he's going to be looking for work!
