Should the Redskins Extend Jay Gruden’s Contract?

[J. Falcon]

Anyone talking about not keeping Gruden is crazy. You bring in another head coach and even with the foundation we have, it would still be a rebuilding phase with a new system and playbook. Gruden is a much (or more) responsible for our recent "success" as is Cousins or the GM.

I do think you keep him for stability sake, but there has to be at least the question about whether certain repeatable issues (penalties, end of half/game decisions, etc...) are directly on him and can be corrected.

I think he will continue to grow and learn from his mistakes.

Yeah and unless I'm forgetting something I don't think he's done anything that's egregiously unforgivable.

He's done a very solid job.

He lost two winnable games to Dallas!!!

Good franchises keep their head coaches. We ought to keep Gruden.


BUT if he loses a 3rd game to Dallas this season... Off with his head!!!

i remember when he was hired and his brother Jon Gruden said something along the lines of "just wait and see, he'll make a much better head coach than i ever dreamed of being" (paraphrased) . . . i am starting to think that he was right on this assessment as IMO Jay is growing leaps and bounds each year . . . i hope to have him and Cousins her for a long time.
