Re: The Jay Gruden thread.
Good coach good be great, if we lose him we are screwed because not many folks coming to DC. Thanks Jay for hanging in there!
I have said it before but this Redskin's up tick is more on Jay then McC.

Re: The Jay Gruden thread.
There’s a lot more to like about Jay as a HC than not. Hope we’re smart and keep him around for a lot longer.

Re: The Jay Gruden thread.
Jay is doing just fine. Really like the more physical offense he installed.

Re: The Jay Gruden thread.
im pro jay. with that being said, i saw almost next to zero adjustments made after half time, on monday night. and some very bad clock management at the end of the game. it should have, at the very least, gone to OT.

Re: The Jay Gruden thread.
I don't even feel as if he is head coach material. Perhaps a good coordinator or assistant, but he sucks as a head coach. He should have never been hired and is only here because no one serious would consider the skins coaching job and Bruce Allen wanted to hook up his buddy.
He has some positves, but the negatives far outweigh them. He fails in the fundementals of calling a football game, and his game and clock management has always been poor. He continues to make the same fundamental mistakes 4years in. Many of the skins losses can be attributed not to penalties, drops, injuries or turnovers, but to his mistakes or simple mismanagement of the game clock. He's quick to throw his players under the bus in press conferences, yet rarely takes blame for his obvious blunders. I actually think he is holding the team back and they are underachieving (So many points left on the field against the Raiders). The team looks better this year because the talent is better on defense, and the teams coordinators have improved, however Gruden will continue to be the downfall. His playcalling is atrocious in the redzone, and he overthinks things. (Chiefs game inside their 5 yard line he runs on 2 downs and then has Cousins QB keep on 3rd down. How about throwing a fade to one your 6'4" WR's?) He's kept Doctson in the doghouse, then finally gets him in the games but only has him targeted once or twice. Then he expects the rookie to catch the game winning td? Regardless if he caught it or not, the Chiefs would have had an oppurtunity to win the game with 2 timeouts due to Gruden leaving close to 50 seconds on the clock by calling an unnecessary timeout with 28 seconds left on the play clock. https://www.thescore.com/news/1389597 Mack Brown shows the best vision, burst and speed out of all the rbs, yet he doesn't even activate him. The 2 most explosive offensive players on the Redskins (Thompson and Crowder) are only targeted once each all game against the Chiefs. The team likely would be 3-1 or 4-0 with just an average head coach. |

Pro Jay. Even more pro Jay if the 'skins make the playoffs this year. He will be here for at least 6 years.

Re: The Jay Gruden thread.
I was looking for the sarcasm tag at first. Legit thought it was a gag.

Re: The Jay Gruden thread.
Coming into the season I had concerns about whether he knew how to hire the right assistants, simply because the Joe Barry, Perry Fewell disasters were just terrible. So far I have absolutely no complaints about Greg Manusky. Jim Tomsula and Torrian Gray are making a positive impact too.
I think the team is playing hard, he schemes it well, he game plans well, and the team largely seems prepared going into each game. He's no Joe Gibbs when it comes to mastering half time adjustments, but he's not a disaster either. I'd definitely keep him. The roster is deeper now than I can ever remember it being. I think what separates us from Super Bowl contenders at this point is star power. Those teams have a couple players who make unbelievable impact. We have a bunch of solid players with a lot of depth behind them. Our #1 CB and our LT are star level. We could use a couple more. But Jay's good.

Re: The Jay Gruden thread.
Maybe Jonathan Allen becomes one of those stars.

The Jay Gruden thread.
He posts once a year and it’s always pure garbage. Checked his IP and sure enough he’s been banned before. It’s always so obvious with these fools.

Re: The Jay Gruden thread.
Jay knows what he is doing. Stood up to management to get Cousins over RG3. Seems to work well with assistants.
Better than Allen/Snyder deserve imo. We are lucky .... wait, do I have to give Allen credit for bringing Jay in?
