QBs it's easier to know than coaches. FA/draft just doesn't have much to offer in the QB dept., at least nobody who's an immediate upgrade over RG with higher potential.

Different story with potential HC's, but sounds like that decisions been made so who cares

I agree with you 100%..we are better off with Gruden and RGIII at least 1 more year! How bad would it be to get rid of RGIII for nothing and then watch him thrive on another team..This fan base has to realize that the Redskins Along with long list of other teams are not very good and have not been for a long time..this team is not going to get fixed in one season.

I think that the media in this town love to stir up reports and exaggerate the undertones that happen when a team is losing. Can I say it doesn't surprise me we haven't heard one thing about the name being offensive once the team started stinking it up, but if we have success, the local media will find a way to make it a story again. Whatever it takes to bring bad media spotlights on this team.

That said, it seems like for now, Snyder has got NBC on the team's side. We will see if it stays that way.

Fucking media won't stop:

It was uber awkward today when reporter asked Gruden if he's been given definitive assurance he'll be back. Long pause. Then just no.

I'm not siding with the media per se but won't blame them for digging either. One of Grudens biggest problems is he's openly criticized the franchise QB ahead of everybody, including himself. That's a story. You don't have to spin anything to make it newsworthy, cuz it's like amateur hour on the big stage folks.

Smootsmack, maybe you've said elsewhere, but I've tried to find it in this thread and couldn't, is there any talk of RG3's fate this off season. All non Redskins fans I know seem to think it's either he leaves or Gruden does. You've said Gruden will get another year, will Griffin stay?

[Paintrain]

At this point it appears to some (like Mike Silver) that Gruden is trying to get himself fired. At minimum it's clear that Griffin isn't going anywhere and it's also clear that he is not Gruden's QB of choice. If he feels painted into a corner where he thinks he can't win, why not try to get out now and collect some cash and then find an OC job somewhere to restore his rep. Another organization may chalk it up to the Redskins stain and allow him another chance in a couple of years.

I'd put it about 20% but I wouldn't be completely surprised to hear of him negotiating his way out of his contract shortly after the season is over.

I've been kind of busy with other stuff to really ask. But the impression I've gotten is that every effort will be made to trade Griffin

Thanks SmootSmack. I wonder what we'd even get for him, and what would they be willing to part with him for? Or would he hold out for a trade? (That would probably be pretty dumb of him)

I know Gruden has been extremely candid in his criticism of Griffin, but part of me is still hoping this year was a hard learned lesson that he needed, and Gruden was laying it on thick to drive home the point. That he needed a wake up call, needed to learn to respect his HC, needed to learn to listen to what people were telling him he needed to learn, and that Gruden was somewhat awkwardly being a strong first year head coach willing to break the kids down to build him back up.

It's sad how deep my delusion runs huh?

If they do trade RGIII, would they go after Mariota in the draft? Take a chance with Cousins or McCoy?

Dag Smoot.....if that's true then why is Jason Reid sports columnist for the Washington Post reporting that Gruden and RG3 will be back next season?

Maybe they will be. I just know they're going to try to trade Griffin
