And giving Robert the starting job with any completion isn't putting the team and the organization first.

Yes sir. I think before winning can happen here again on a regular basis, the full culture change needs to happen. We got half of it, a real GM...Finally!
Now we need Snyder to stop getting involved in the on field decisions. Let the coaches and GM handle that.
This RGIII situation of insisting he be the starter reminds of another similar redskins situation handled better in 1981 and that is Mark May.
Mark Mark our 1981 first round pick, #20 overall and Outland trophy winning, consensus 1st team All American can't miss guy. In camp Bugel and Gibbs notice he was a great run blocker but could not handle NFL speed rushers and was not looking good. So they benched him. But at the same time undrafted Free agents Joe Jacoby and Jeff Bostic get the start as well as 3rd rounder Russ Grimm and 11th round draft pick George Stark.
Mark May did not earn a starting position until 1982 and that was at guard. To cover up his deficiency of pass protection on the outside that he later overcame. JKC never got involved and the rest is history.
I think with Snyder and others insisting on starting a guy with out a competition in camp deflated the entire lockeroom.
Even if hypothetically you start KC now because he is more prepared for a Pro system then later switch to RGIII once he learns, like Mark May did, that would be fine.
