That my qualify as a "fact" to you but it doesn't even come close to factual to me and I'm guessing it doesn't for most people.

And again even IF your "fact" were true it should be disconcerting that your new HC clearly was never on board with developing the franchise QB. You think Jay would have been hired if his plan consisted of moving on from Griffin prior to the season even starting?

I find it odd that you dont view your notion that Jay wanted to play Kirk and not Griffin an indictment upon Jay.

The fact is, Griffin has had very little pro-style offense experience is why he struggled, not Gruden's faith in RG.

Again your statement above is not a fact.

The fact is football assessment seldom lends itself to simple soundbite analysis. There is rarely 1 "reason" for the success or failure of a play, player, coaching staff or season.

Was Griffin's inexperience in a rhythm drop back passing offense part of his struggles? Sure.

But the playcalling, game plan and coaching also played a role in his struggles. After all Griffin was even less experienced as rookie but was better as a rhythm drop back passer in that system then now. Heck, no QB was less 'prp-style' then Cam and look what he did as a rookie. I bring those up only to remind us that Griffin's performance or any player for that matter is tied to the quality of the coaching. Jay maybe unable or unwilling to coach anything other then his system.
