Grunden gets a pass because, last year the narrative out of Redskin FO, the pro-RG3 people on this site and the RG3 camp was that last season was all the fault of the head coach. Oh, if only the Shanahans weren't mean to Rg3. If only the coaching was better, RG3 was this elite QB who was being thwarted by the head coach.

That and EVERYONE who understands QB mechanics for a living says RG3 is a mess. People who do this stuff for a living say this, not one dissenting voice.

Maybe Dalton worked harder at it, maybe Dalton is smarter, maybe Dalton doesn't have a swollen head and think he already knows everything. I can't say. What I can say is that, when a play calls for a 3 step drop and you drop 5 steps or one step and start hoping around, that is not a coaching problem that is a QB problem. When a WR is open and the QB is staring down the wrong receiver, then goes for the check down, thats a QB problem. Coaching doesn't fix that.
