Coaches probably know it because they see him practice everyday. I think if he was consistently having great practices they'd give him a shot.

i get that, i understand that's the way it works. but some guys can turn it up to another level in a game, not saying that briscoe will - just saying he might.

this isn't a "shit season, might as well play the young guys" type thing. i'm not saying he's going to come on strong like victor cruz did last season, i just want to see him get some serious playing time in a regular season game.

They also saw cundiff kick in practice everyday. So either they need glasses or things dont always translate frome the practice field to gameday. I dont think it hurts to get him in the game.

It's easy to watch a kicker who makes every FG in practice because there isn't any pressure on him, and a WR who is getting beat out by better WR's on the roster.

I meant before the season when gano and rackers were cut. They must have seen something in cundiff when they bought him here. I hear you though.

You want to get guys on the upswing
Last year everyone complained about not having any speed and youth at WR. Well that's what we have now, PG and AR.

Im not necessarily saying cousins wont be better than grossman some day. Im saying that we had/have a serviceable backup in grossman already who knows the offense. I think the pick would have been better served elsewhere and we could have replaced grossman or not - its not like grossman is a sought after commodity and he basically has said he has no problem sticking around and being the backup.
You said urself the team is no better or worse at second string qb so why the pick?

a serviceable backup (Rexy) who came in because McNabb couldn't run the two minute drill and proceeded to get a sack/fumble. Look, maybe Grossman plays better than Cousins yesterday maybe not, but I am as content with him coming in as I would be with Grossman. Grossman is a 50/50 passer, maybe he won yesterday, maybe he throws the exact same picks Cousins threw. I don't know, but long term we might as well let Cousins see the field and get reps. Grossman, I still don't know why he is here at this point.

Re: Falcons at Redskins Post Game Thoughts

in the grand scheme of things, there's actually not much i would change about this team. keeping several things in mind (cap penalties, rookie qb, new starting wrs, losing orakpo and carriker, etc.), i think we're doing alright. it's hard not to be excited about what the future holds when our qb is robert griffin iii.

we have been in every single game, never losing by more than 1 score. they're fighting hard, i admire that. that's my take on it

Keep in mind, the cap penalty is our own faulty and the stupidty of our FO and the fact Vinny and Danny still haunt us with piss poor free agent signings. Cap Penalty is nobody's fault but our own.

I don't want to open up this discussion again but the cap penalty was not our fault. I think it sucks that we had to resort to that and that came from Vinny's mess. But the fact that we got hit with a 36 mil penalty was all the NFL's doing.

i disagree, i don't see how we are at fault for following the rules. there was a loophole, and we took advantage of it.

I agree, and our offense is way way more better than the past few years. I'm happy with this team. We have an outstanding franchise qb, good LT and a solid WR corp and rookie rb.
