I think you would have to ask what would be the purpose of starting McCoy? Is it to win a weak division? Undermine a young QB that has developmental potential? If McCoy was a viable option over Cousins to the point he was head and heels better I think he would be starting.

So Cousins is a developmental quarterback? Gruden benched him last season for making the same reckless decisions....you start McCoy simply because he gives the offense a better chance to succeed as he showed last year .....

I think that is a fair enough argument but I think last year was a chance for Scot and Jay to evaluate both personnel and staff. But if McCoy gives them the best to succeed why isn't he starting? Do you think Jay has an agenda against him? Can't coach both?

Maybe Gruden is not going off of last year.....maybe he's thinking in terms of how each quarterback has performed during mini camp, OTAs, training camp, and preseason... he's sticking with Cousins not because he thinks he gives the Redskins the better chance to win but he thinks Kirk Cousins can develop into a great quarterback and he thinks by allowing him to play and make these perpetual mistakes is apart of the process of Cousins developing....on the other hand he has a journeyman quarterback in Colt McCoy who is more battle hardened.... the ongoing loyalty to Cousins is frustrating as well as baffling.

I think what was the most frustrating to watch today was to witness the Jets run about as vanilla a offense as we did, if not even more, anchored by Fitspatrick yet they marched up and down the field in the 2nd half like it was nothing, seeming to run the same 2-3 plays over and over. All they kept doing was running routes and sitting down in soft spots of the zone for easy receptions and out defense never adjusted to try and take anything away.

The forced turnovers were nice and much appreciated on the effort-scale of things, but as far as yardage, the defense was just pathetic.

How many times did they run that same slant route and it went for 8-12 every single time. Never thought once to bring the corner up and create contact at the line to throw off timing. Little things like that.

Absolutely frustrating.

Well I would say that they have a superior running game, better wide receiver's, and maybe even a better QB.

I did not see the game, but the highlight of Brandon Marshalls catch was incredible. It was bad throw that turned into a long TD.

We have the same record as the Seahawks.

Our third quarters are really inexplicably bad. Never seen anything like it.

Snyder is telling the other teams the halftime plan so JG comes crawling back to him and ask forgiveness.

Atleast that's what my sources say

I think that is what I miss the most from the glory days. Gibbs always seemed to come up with the best halftime adjustments...

A friend IMed me this evening and asked me my thoughts on the rumor of Jay getting fired during the buy week and Bill C taking over.

Has anybody seen this rumor?

Sounds like a bad rumor to me.
