Re: Who is Kirk Cousins?

I don't think Gruden and Barry are incompetent. I just think they are both conservative, perhaps even unimaginative, play callers.

I often wonder what our current offense and defense would look like with better players. If Scot is who we think he is and he improves player personnel significantly over the next two years, perhaps we could run the same plays and be much more successful with them.

I realize that stability means nothing if we have the wrong coaches and executives in place. OTOH, I think stability is very important if we have the right people in place. So, I'd like to see Gruden and Barry get the chance to work with better players.

But if we don't win a road game soon, I might change my mind.

Conservative and unimaginative...doesn't exactly win championships does it?

Gruden is good at making excuses though: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...ning-the-ball/

pathetic...

Re: Who is Kirk Cousins?

Just to clear the air.

Chico doest like Gruden or Cousins.

That's if you didn't catch on to his constant attacks of the two.

Ok, carry on.

Yeah, the excuse making is not a good look.

I really don't want to see another coaching change right now, but that's up to Gruden and Barry. They may want to play other teams straight up but they obviously don't have the horses to do it. If they don't come up with something right now to improve our run game and stop the opponent's run game, they may both be fired before Scot is able to acquire the horses.

Last week Barry had the corners playing 10 yards off the wr's on a 3rd and 3 when Carolina was backed up in their own side of the field. I wanted to bitch slap him. He is way too conservative and after 10 weeks I really don't think he's anything special. That hire is on Gruden.

Also I wonder if we have more than two run plays. We might lead the league in 2nd and 12, and I can almost predict when we're going to run and pass.

Starting over may not be the best thing right now. But these guys and KC need to start taking more chances on both sides of the ball. We'll need to if we want to beat the Giants. If KC throws a pick or two then so be it, that's part of playing QB.

That may be true but I surely wouldn't want to be reading all of the opinions about that afterwards on this message board.
