The everything Gruden thread

[Avinash_Tyagi]

Gibbs 2.0 was a decent stretch (Certainly the team was far more disciplined than today)

I actually thought had we stuck with Greg Williams as Coach and Kept Saunders on as Offensive Coordinator after Gibbs retired the second time, we might have been able to get some momentum going

Man, f*ck the Rams and Jeff Fischer. They aint got nothing to talk about, they are buried in that division



Colt McCoy is getting more tests on his strained neck Monday.

We still don't have an exact diagnosis on the injury that knocked McCoy out of Sunday's ugly loss to the Rams. His status for Week 15 is unknown, with backup Robert Griffin III waiting in the wings.

Per Kiem.


Im sorry, but it make zero sense to play Colt now, RG3 needs to be back there.

This sounds like a man down situation

I'd rather them play Kirk. At least he can move the offense. I have no desire to see Griffin back out there this year at all. He can't run the offense at the most basic level.

Agree with Chico, RG should start.

One thing, nobody and I mean nobody should question his toughness. RG has been battered behind this shitshow line and hung in there, albeit with the yips. McCoy couldn't last more than a couple full games and looked terrible by end of yesterday's disaster.

Robert Griffin III Punting Footballs for 40 Minutes Is a Sad, Inexplicable Story | Bleacher Report

I don't like RG3 but this is probably one of the saddest things i've ever read about an NFL player...

Is it being overly critical to say that if he is going to spend time after practice working it should NOT be on punting???

Yeah, probably overly critical. Doesn't sound like anything more than someone who needs some alone time - to try to wrap his head around how he got "here". I mean no one saw this coming 24 months ago.

I imagine it's hard for him to swallow, but in the end I think benching him will turn out to be the best thing for him. He may not realize it yet, but Gruden does. Robert has to get his head right. He has the physical tools, but mentally he's broken. He has no chance of regaining his mental confidence behind this O-line. Give him a rest, physically and mentally - and make him earn his way back on...sounds like a sound plan to me. And if it doesn't work out next year - move on.

And he is 24, I think that gets lost on people. These are so young with so much pressure. When I was 24 I was just starting my career on a junior level. I certainly was not suppose to be the savour of my company and do it all under the public eye.

(in best jeopardy style) What does a 24 year old millionaire look like when he hits rock bottom?

[rocnrik]

RGIII career is far from over..if he does not play here again he will someplace else..he needed some growing up to do and maybe he has..think about it if he has a good game it could boost his confidence and he could bounce back..trouble is ..what QB in the league could play well with this totally cluster of a team..Brady or Rogers would not win 7 games with this team!!

[Bangee7]

After having all day to recover from the drubbing by St Louis (actually the humiliation),
I'm centered again.

I believe in Jay Gruden....he is part of the solution in my book.

I think he needs to make some tough choices in order to push the franchise forward, but I really have no doubt that he will figure it out.

The guy has succeeded at every level, every other position he's held.

He knows football.

I think this first year will teach him a lot...I think he's a good natured guy, but unfortunately, I think in order to grow, he'll have to look beyond friendships and make hard decisions.

Ultimately, I think he will.

I detect sarcasm. Lol. I was being 95% funny. I just think it is a strange thing, but 5 % of me really thinks that with all the talk surrounding his work ethic and future here - i dont know - practice throwing the ball through a tire if u are all alone and still out on the practice field. Do they still use tires?

It wasn't long ago when you were giving me the goat award for saying the same thing. Times done changed.
