Just go back to his reaction when WFT drafted him. He nearly looked despondent. RR is no stupid man, and knows Haskins isn't the guy.
All of that may be true but it's also true he was drafted by one of the most poorly run organizations in all of sports under less than ideal conditions and not really given the support that most first round QBs get.

This. His cheerleader was the owner. It wasn't his first coaching staff, his second coaching staff, or his third coaching staff, in the span of a year no less. Most of that is his own fault for not having the work ethic to be great. But it takes an organization to help a rookie qb grow into an elite one. And having the turnover that we had makes it harder.

Re: How Many Games Should We Test Haskins?

Dwayne Haskins is a grown man and has to take personal responsibility to be ready. It is his responsibility.
I have seen in the past several proactive rookie QB's hire/pay for a personal off season QB coach. Lord knows Dwayne can afford it.
Please do not give the Covid excuse as they can wear masks. A hired personal QB coach could have helped Dwayne work on fundamentals (his terrible footwork) and help Dwayne better learn his new playbook. I don't buy the poor little Dwayne Haskins is a victim of circumstance argument. He is not in jail.
I repeat an observation I made earlier, that Dwayne showed up to his NFL combine job interview out of shape and ran a terrible 40. One of the slowest in NFL history for QB. This is a CLEAR example of his work ethic and not taking personal responsibility in the past.
He is the one that has to do the work. Nobody is going to learn it or do it for him.
You can lead a horse to water..........
People making excuses for him is not going to help him learn and work hard.

He does have his own personal trainer, it's Quincy Avery who works with Watson, Hurts and others.. But one big thing Quincy preaches is "Toe to target is not good to use anymore" And it shows with Dwayne's tape, he's hardly ever pointing towards his targets.. Watson and Hurts can get away with that "Mahomes" like method because they are great athletes..

good QB developer but he didn’t create the rule book. Dudes been doing toe to target since before any of us were born... with high success rate
pull up any Montana clips

He has a personal QB's coach and he still has such shifty technique? Wow he stinks. He is a slow learner.

That's not Rivera's problem nor was his decision. This is his team now and he is acting accordingly. I'm sure he clearly recognizes Dan Snyder knows diddly about drafting pro football players.
