I'm on that list of the "yes" but that poll isn't as cut and dry. You can approve of the trade due to the player, but not the value they gave up. I clearly have stated repeatedly that it was too much to give for one player that wasn't a sure thing, and that I would have never made that trade. If RGIII were at the spot we were originally, I would have been ecstatic about selecting him due to his potential.

i think you are right. a ton of people voted yes .... and a ton of those same posters thought it was way too much at the same time.

Re: McCoy to Start Against Indy

a strong case can be made to start either cousins or colt at this point.

Re: McCoy to Start Against Indy

was anyone else watching the terps game last night and then saw this huge red banner scroll across the bottom of their TV saying "NFL ALERT: Robert Griffin III blah blah blah ..."

the font was 3 times the size of the normal scrolling banner font.

I thought for sure a current well-known nfl player was shot and killed.

but no, it was just about the 3-8 skins decision as to who would start on sunday in a meaningless game ...

Re: McCoy to Start Against Indy

I wonder how much influence Jon gruden has with Jay in this cluster of a situation. Gotta believe he is advising Jay, Jon really seemed to like Kirk cousin a whole lot in the past.

Kirk > Colt > RG

Ok with the move for the rest of this year, but I'd like to see Kirk get a real shot next year.

Re: McCoy to Start Against Indy

This is from pages back, but there might be something to sitting cousins, for these games, other than the picks.... If u think back to last year - this would be a very similar situation kirk would be put in, again... I'm not sure how many of our players aren't going to throw in the towel like we as fans have on this season... If kirk were to finish the season, I'm not sure it looks that much better for him than last seasons end did... And that IMO doesn't help anyone. I like cousins. I think he can and will improve.. But its like we all say almost every year..... Maybe next season we'll be a better team.

Re: McCoy to Start Against Indy

Any prospect of collectively becoming Ravens or Steelers fans and rebranding the forum?

Re: McCoy to Start Against Indy

With the trade for RGIII, we all hoped that our 20-year search for a franchise QB had come to an end. Now we are back to square one, with no more legit starters on the roster today than the days of Rex and Beck.

For a Redskins fan, fate is cruel.

I guess Joey T. was right.

Ron Jaworski was right too. He's the first one I remember criticizing RG3's mechanics.

It's just sad that production never improved.

Well, time to move on. Not much more to say.
