I mean, would anyone truly be surprised if Wisenhunt were our coach and Rivers our QB next year?

I'm not saying its likely to happen. But given the history of the way this organization operates, we cant limit our thinking to assuming the 2020 QB will be Haskins or Smith.
Out of those five the last two are trash and would be the only ones who in their right mind would even think of coming to the Redskins. You really think Tom Brady and Phillip Rivers would want to end their careers in DC on a team that finished the previous year 1-15 with no prospects for immediate improvement? Dak will finally come to terms with the Cowboys, we all know that. As for the remaining two they aren't any better than what the trio we have has shown lately.

I'm just listing whos available. Would Tom Brady and Phillip Rivers want to end their careers here? Probably not. But if the Skins traded 10 1st round picks to the Patriots and Belichek was the coach or the skins hired Wisenhut, perhaps theyd be interested. Garret could be fired and that could entice Dak to sign here.

The point of my comment was that we shouldn't be ruling anything out. Snyder's history shows he likes to make a major splash after completely disastrous seasons. And this one is going to end in a disaster. I don't see us finishing better than 2-14. I'm expecting a major shakeup in the offseason with Snyder firing bruce or moving him to only work on the stadium deal, bringing in some sort of big name coach/GM and giving them total control. It is not very likely that theyre going to want to be handcuffed to Haskins or Smith to start their tenure. That's only going to happen if Snyder can't get the big name and is stuck promoting Oconnell or getting a Jim Zorn type with no cred.

Winston is better than anyone we currently have. If he was out there as a free agent I'd think about it.

my lord dude is the definition of a turnover machine, 70 INTs and 46 fumbles in 63 games, I'd just stick with Keenum if we're going bargain shopping at QB again

But his Uber finger-blasting-the-driver metric is high and successful crab leg thefts are 80%.

I like the non measurables-analytics with Winston...could add some roster drama in the QB room with Alex “pegleg” Smith...and a first round pick who can’t comprehend a playbook.

The Redskins signed a guy who whipped his kid in the balls with a stick and another who beat his girlfriend. If you ask me he'd fit right in.
