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.

Jay 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.
