Morgan Moses is right. The run game had 10 carries for 30 yards with an average 1.3 per.....anyone who says we didn’t need the greatest RB of this decade is a damn fool.

What did Smallwood do for us in his place? Nothing.

Gruden needs to go.

What would have AP done? Get his runs call back because of fucking Moses? Like I said, Moses needs to STFU and play.

And whatever happened with let young player develop and not have old vets take time away from that development?

My biggest issue with Gruden was going away from the run. Mitch Tischler said it best during the Redskins Talk Podcast, that series of play when Keenum missed McLaurin and PRich had a drop, they should have run the ball and give the defense a rest.

All this will be a moot point if/when Reed returns and they can activate AP.

Not sure if you noticed but Moses point and your are the same exact point, Gruden did not run the ball enough when we had a 17 pt. L
lead. So why you telling him to stfu?
On your point about developing young players, yes develop them. But start your best players period. Do not let age, where drafted or contract influence your decision on starters.
Coaches coach and FO should stay out who starts.

Gruden must go.

As to benching AP, yes, i agree it has the appearance of disrespect, but if the team is committed to seeing what Guice can do, then having a 4th RB active on the roster that doesn't play special teams doesn't make much sense. Peterson needs to get a heavy workload to be effective, so his value to this team only exists if he's the starter. And, due to similar playing styles and roster limitations, it doesn't make sense to have both Guice and AP active.

Which is probably why wanted to let AP go before the season, but Allen overruled him. So we have a situation where the Team President is not letting Gruden control his final 53 man roster. If someone has an issue with Gruden benching AP, then they are essentially saying that Gruden shouldn't have control over his 46 man game day roster, either.

Jay Gruden shouldn't be given control to organize a clown car parade.

1. A head coach should always have control over his roster. If you wont give your head coach that control, then the guy shouldn't be your head coach.

2. Between the two of them, Id rather Jay control the roster than Bruce.

If you can't trust your HC to do the right thing, then you should fire him. Jay Gruden is the one who should be permanently deactivated.

p.s. We're going to be trampled by the Cowboys next week at "home".

While i agree with you, the reality is that Jay is the absolute best coach we will ever have under Bruce Allen. No truly great coach would be willing to put up with him.

If only we could limit Gruden to the first half and then let someone (anyone) take over the second half.
