No ESPN said Grossman out

Rex Grossman inactive, Kirk Cousins will back up Robert Griffin III

Chris Baker is also inactive. Who will give Cofield a breather?

I am shocked, I absolutely expected Cousins to sit, (2) Rookie QB's.... Coach must have alot of faith in these guys.

Does anybody else in the DC area with Directv show Eagles/Browns as the 1 pm matchup? I'm still trying to figure this one out, there's no reason it should be showing that here.

So pumped I don't know what to do with myself!

Swarley · 09-09-2012, 11:49 AM

NFL Network says Grossman is inactive as well.

mooby · 09-09-2012, 11:50 AM

Fox just said Grossman inactive. Well, somebody's gotta be wrong here.

lol why is it so bad for Cousins to be the backup? The guy looked decent in pre-season. Maybe not 2nd string decent but... I mean the coaches must be seeing something amazing?

I hope so, if that is the case, that is good news for the Redskins that we have (2) good caliber QB's for years to come. I was just surprised that the coaches would elect to go with (2) rookie QB's. Typically you would see a veteran behind a rookie.

It's actually not, I was saying either the inactive lineup ESPN put out is wrong or all the tv networks are wrong. But I do think it's weird that they are shutting down the experienced vet backup in favor of the 4th round rookie who's never played a regular season NFL game before.

@NC: Hopefully the "can he really be any worse than Rex" argument has been shut down, because we all learned the answer to that question the hard way last year lolol.

Swarley · 09-09-2012, 11:55 AM

I see more reports of Grossman being inactive so I'll go with that.

Swarley · 09-09-2012, 11:58 AM

I don't think he was saying it was bad, just that one of the reports was wrong and one was right.
