Re: McCoy to Start Against Indy

Just because we f'ed up one QB pick (RG) doesn't mean we have to f up the other one (KC). Focus on building depth in the draft where we're thin and bring KC along with hope of getting something comparable to a Mark Rypien. Stop looking for the magic bullet.

I agree with you and I believe cousins IS the qb for next year.

At this point Gruden knows what he has at qb. Right now he wants to evaluate the rest of the offense. To do that they need to be ON THE FIELD. He's putting the qb with the lowest turnover ratio in so he can get a longer look at our offense.

I think the off season is Cousins' to lose.

Re: McCoy to Start Against Indy

With the trade for RGIII, we all hoped that our 20-year search for a franchise QB had come to an end. Now we are back to square one, with no more legit starters on the roster today than the days of Rex and Beck.

For a Redskins fan, fate is cruel.

Well, seeing as you have all the answers, PLEASE inform me how this is all going to pan out.

I'll wait.

Here's a sad stat:

From Rypien to Griffin, Redskins have started 24 quarterbacks since 1993 | Fox News

I'm okay with this.

Yup. Its still evaluation time for Griff. Just going about it alittle differently.

Just saying.

Titans, Dallas. He does it again and I think it might be safe to say that at the very least we have a capable backup in DC.

I think Gruden wants to win a game. That simple. I dont think there are any ulterior motives whatsoever. Gruden has seen enough of RG-3 imo.

T. Green let go... plays great for StL (16 tds, 5 ints) and ends up backup for a Super Bowl... then plays damn well for Chiefs, starting all 16 games over 5 seasons with a record of 44-36

Also crazy that since 1993 no QB has been our starter for more than 3 years, with the only guys to do 3 years as Frerotte, Brunell, Campbell, and RGIII

I guess instead of the famous 7-year itch.... This franchise (Snyder) gets a 3-year itch at QB...

Getting rid of Trent Green was the biggest mistake in my opinion, I was pissed when he was let go.

Re: McCoy to Start Against Indy

Looking more closely... each guy in the Snyder era has been replaced with a "shiny new toy" that never worked long-term...

EDITED:

Gannon (solid, not shiny 4th Round Pick) replaced by Heath Shuler (1st Round,3rd overall pick) experiment...

Shuler/Frerotte (7th Round pick) replaced by Trent Green experiment, which worked pretty well... but we didn't want to pay him, so naturally...

Trent Green (solid, not shiny 8th Round pick) was replaced by Brad Johnson experiment, which worked pretty well... but this time...

SNYDER ERA BEGINS:

Johnson (solid, not shiny 9th Round pick) replaced by Jeff George experiment (ooooooh shiny former 1st Round, 1st overall pick!)...

George replaced by Patrick Ramsey experiment (1st Round pick)...

Ramsey replaced by Jason Campbell experiment (1st Round Pick)...

Campbell replaced by McNabb experiment (ooooh shiny former 1st Round, 2nd overall pick!)...

McNabb/Grossman (1st Round pick) replaced by RGIII experiment (Shiny 1st Round, 2nd overall pick!)...

and now??

Snyder is CLEARLY not a Gannon (4th Round), Green (8th Round), Johnson (9th Round), Colt McCoy (3rd Round) kind of owner... he wants the next big, shiny, face of the NFL QB... and um... definitely drafted in the 1st Round... duh. So we shall see how this truly plays out between he and Gruden...

This Jay Gruden just happened to see (and here's the best part...) his brother Jon take Brad Johnson to Super Bowl win versus Rich Gannon, who Gruden had coached up the year before... Ha!

...so yes... he may just be looking at McCoy as his Johnson/Gannon (smart vet) that his brother used for success and wins...

SIDE NOTE: Um... maybe we should stay away from 1st Round QBs? Especially if drafting (or drafted) 1st to 3rd overall?!?
