I don't think you should be looking at whether Penn starts. They seem to be putting Penn and Wes Martin in when Haskins in under center. This to me is telling. I would state they are putting in the OL players they think are likely to be starters when Haskins is in to give him the best chance to succeed.

Geron Christian has been a complete mess. Penn will start over him

I agree - that is clearly their plan. And Wes Martin at LG.

I actually think Christian has looked better than Penn overall. Neither have been good, but if I had to pick one today it would be Christian. Penn has looked slow and tired and out of shape.

Our O line is an absolute huge problem. Even if it weren’t we are counting on Case Keenum to do what exactly? Our mlb is not strong and a very important piece of the defensive side of things. Our rb’s and wr’s are completely unproven. Guice might be a stud but who knows. AP will run out of gas like last year - probably sooner with a weaker o line. Our special teams has been absolutely God awful because we hired a God awful ST coach to come in for some reason. Usually at this point im drowning in kool aid, but this year I am already wondering who we can take with a top 3 pick. Though with Bruce at the helm we will probably trade number 3 for 5 future 7’s. It doesn’t look good at all.

Gruden will probably switch out Penn and Christian, thus telegraphing when we are going to run.

Re: Trent Williams holding out for new deal

Gruden when asked if he’s talked to Trent in the last few weeks:

“Maybe”

It's harder to get a straight answer on Trent Williams then Russian Collusion(points to Debating with the Enemy forum for all political responses)!!!

Gruden should be in the CIA with that shrewd, deceptive answer. It completely threw me off the trail.

Jay (as a toddler): "Maybe."

Re: Trent Williams holding out for new deal

There is no excuse for him not to be strong enough by now! Hit the fucking weights. Looking like a bust.

Re: Trent Williams holding out for new deal

This is so sad and frustrating to me. Look what Jaylon Smith just did for the cowboys and what he said about being on that team. What a contrast. (Of course, they still have Zeke being a douche, but still.)

ANY player that signs an extension is going to say good things about being on that team. You aren't signing a multimillion dollar deal then turning around and bad mouthing the team.

Fact is Trent still personally hasn't come out and said anything. Yes a lot of smoke from reliable sources, but it's not like TW walked up to a podium and lambasted the team. If somehow a deal is reached the first things out of TW's mouth would be that a lot of his words were taken out of context and he appreciates everything DS and the Redskins have done for him and his family.

That's just the way the business end is.

The point is he took a below market deal to help the team sign Dak and Zeke and said so. We don’t have guys doing that. Not even close.
