The RG3 Sucks - Knee Jerk Reaction Thread

[Kope]

the last time we had a coach this honest it was Marty. He called Darrell Green out and got him to buy in.

Leadership cannot start without honesty. It is about setting one standard and driving folks to it. If they don't buy in then they have to go; period. It can be brutal to watch from the outside.

IMO Gruden is exactly on track. By brining the issue into the public light he is protecting himself, he is in the position of strength. If he was a third year coach he wouldn't have the same leverage. He has this one single season to establish his relationship with higher; he will never have as much leverage as he has now - unless he starts winning. Once he starts winning he has another source of leverage. To win he has to get rid of RG. After this year the window is closed and he becomes more responsible as time goes on.

Don't forget Saint Joe was all about getting rid of Riggins and had issues with Theismann. He also flopped back and forth between DW and Jay Schrader, nothing was given to anyone.

Bottom line is if Gruden can get through this season and get rid of RG we have a chance at a turn around.

Of course this is all my opinion.
