Draft pick status?!?! How does this remotely correlate to him earned the right to start his very first week? Give the guy the future the reps?!? Uh, did you watch the Cleveland game? Our oline has issues there. Williams isn't coming back. We have no real solution for lt and lg and you wanna put a rookie with a limited amount of college experience (yet alone no NFL experience) right into fire week1 at Philly? Got it.

I’d rather go 6-10 with Haskins than 8-8 with Colt or Case.

Yes! Case or Colt are NOT going to get us to the playoffs in the NFC East. Gruden is not going to get another year with Case or Colt but he may get an extension as a HC as Dwayne’s “teacher”.

Case or Colt are not going to get people to buy tickets. They will come to see the future.

I wish the Redskins would just call this a rebuilding season. Dump some of the overpriced FA and bring in the rookies and second year guys to see if they can rise up. Make commitments to premium Redskins like Scherff and re-sign him.

Get a real GM.

Ok, I got carried away on the last thing. This is the Redskins after all.

RG3 wasn’t ready either, that’s why they designed an offense around what he could handle with the zone read and very easy one read passes off play action.

Oh definitely, but every body, coaches and FO included, was overhyping him from day 1 following the draft. With Haskins they're more precautious.

Taking your team to NFC title game is nothing to ignore! I like Case and hope he does well here!! Who’s to say with our injury history Haskins stays healthy.. He took several shots in Cleveland that he was fortunate not to be injured. Haskins has all the tools to be the man but it takes a little time ..I believe Case will be starter day one and Haskins will get his chance at some point to be the Number One .. but to throw him to the wolves in this town would not be wise.. I can see it now he throws 2 picks and a fumble sack in a regular season game and some would say he’s a bust😳.. remember we are hard on this team!!

Calm down folks,he's just a baby and he doesn't have to play this season unless something crazy happens,we should be more concerned about the o-line and recievers...let him sit and learn...ARE YOU READING THIS DAN???

Agreed. That's why this is a tenuous situation. He really does need to observe, get his fundamentals down completely, and let us shore up our oline. Let Keenum and his NFL experience (only 1 on the roster who has a decent starting amount) get started. I just don't get why fans are reluctant to give this guy a real chance. If he bombs fine, but at least let's see what we have in him. His NFL tenure has been fairly impressive, and the guy seems to have a great attitude.

I don't bring this up enough but this is a great point. We have a mix of has-beens and unprovens at the skill positions, and a guy who can't stay healthy at TE.

The tape wasn't as bad as it looked but unless Dwayne really lights it up the next 2 games, this job is Keenums to lose.

I agree, unless Gruden really wants McCoy out there starting which I feel is plausible. McCoy knows his system the best and has him #1 on the depth chart (realize this doesn't mean much of anything at this point.) I wanna see McCoy and Keenum both v. Cincy this week. Get them both plenty of reps.

I don't get this idea of keeping Haskins in bubble wrap until there's an optimal time to put him in. We have two journeymen in Colt and Case that are clearly not the future of this franchise. Get the kid in there it's the only way he's going to develop.

Heard this morning driving in, Colt has been borderline terrible at camp since this injury flared up.

WHY does jay continue to set the franchise back with Colt?????

PLAY CASE AND HASKINS EXCLUSIVELY

I feel bad for Colt. He's been a team player and a good guy for many years here. But IMO he is just like Reed, his body can't stand the rigors of playing pro football.
