Definitely agree, he needs plenty of improvement on his footwork and learning to protect himself, you can do those in practice.

Nobody talking about this yet?







Wtf do we gotta do to get Danny to see the light?



#FIREBRUCE



I also agree with Gruden on Haskins.







People really think it's gonna suddenly click for Haskins while he's staring down defensive formations on the field? I really don't understand the hostility towards having qb's who aren't pro-ready sit out their first season to get acclimated. Did it hurt Aaron Rodgers? Tom Brady? Patrick Mahomes? Phillip Rivers?



Did it help Dak Prescott to start since game 1 as a rookie? More than it helped surrounding him with a stud offensive line, a top-5 running back and multiple weapons at WR/TE?



Everybody is different. If multiple coaches say Haskins isn't ready, I'm inclined to agree. If they felt like he could run enough plays to win games I am positive he would be in there taking his lumps.


My question is this: what changes NEXT SEASON for Haskins? Is this OL going to miraculously improve in 2020? Won’t Haskins have a new HC next year? What if Haskins has to compete against Alex Smith next season - could he go another year riding pine while he watches another experienced QB beat him out due largely to his inexperience?

For every QB you list as having waited a year before starting, there are others who started on the first day of their rookie season AND THRIVED earlier due to that experience. Wentz of the Eagles is one such example.

The Redskins have not had a franchise QB in over two decades. Their extremely poor team record reflects this lack of quality in a team’s most important position. They drafted Haskins to be that franchise QB. Let him play and gain game time experience. Do you think he’s really learning anything watching Keenum or McCoy play?

Is this really a legit question? Literally we're talking about having a new HC, a new offensive scheme to learn, new offensive linemen in front of him, new wideouts/TE/backs to throw to, literally everything could be totally different for him next year.

Re: Jay Gruden fired

Short of fans developing a grass roots movement to boycot Skins games and merch, and/or protest at the stadium, Snyder isn’t going to do anything to can Allen. But I think we are at a point where those measures are warranted and need to happen.

DS will never overtly fire BA the way Gruden was fired. If the day ever comes when BA resigns I expect it because DS asked him to resign rather than firing him.

I disagree. I think BA will get fired after the next coach has 2 abysmal years. Think of this next coach as BA's Zorn hire. No one of note is going to come but in BAs smugness he won't realize it til he is hiring a 3rd tier position coach. The fans will either revolt like with Cerrato or their complete apathy will force any stadium deal to collapse under the weight of voter rebellion against tax breaks for the Skins FO. At that point BAs value as a local politcal voice will be nil and Snyder will fire him and replace him with a third stooge with another 10year lease on life. By that point the team will be so desolate of fans that they will move to Mexico and be renamed the Aztecs.

What I'm says in DS will tell BA he's fired but allow him to resign and save face.

I don’t care how it happens as long as it happens.

With revenue sharing I don't think that's going to hit Dan as hard as it would without.

I think our best measure is working in coordination with the opposing fans that will fill Fedex every other weekend to get #firebruce chants going, as well as bringing a ton of signs to the stadium like in '09.

Is Fedex field in a no fly zone? If not let's take up a collection to fly a fire bruce banner around the stadium during a game.
