0-16 The rams get Number 1 in the draft..just great

If Aldrick can hold that pass--we're all singing a different tune. It's a game of inches and a game of momentum. Tough loss. RGIII is looking better, but that bonehead fumble was awful and the pick on the sideline was all on him. So that's that game--turnovers, missed opportunities and awful penalties. And this is with a really bad D.

Stay the course. It's a long-term plan. RGIII in year 3 will be better. We need to get a D somehow--tough to do with the salary cap penalty. Haslett may not last the year, though Shanny is pretty loyal.

Were we that afraid to start Cousins?

Are you that sure things would be much different if Cousins was starting?

Yes and no. Shanahan's tenure will be defined by RG3, and vice versa. Shanahan is the kind of guy who lives and dies by the sword. He would never, ever, admit a mistake and so he would go down for it with his pride and his ego intact, rather than do an about face and play cousins now.

I heard rumors that other NFL folks and even people inside the organization were lobbying for Shanahan to start Cousins, with the idea that RG3 would be 100% by the time we come back from the bye. I also heard at that time, the question was asked what would be done if Cousins was hot or the skins were on a winning streak? So obviously Shanahan wanted to squash any controversy by sticking with RG3 no matter what.

Kind of reminds me how much JC stunk, but he was never benched no matter how poorly he played, even when we had other quarterbacks on the roster (at the time) who could play.

I think the mentality is that Shanahan gave up all of those picks and basically mortgaged the team's future on a "maybe", that for year one, appeared to be a "definitely". So RG3 will never be benched unless it is god forbid due to an injury, and Shanahan is likely using his remaining time with the skins to audition for another team, if he decides to stay in the NFL. I kind of see him riding off into the sunset if he gets canned here. He is sort of an older guy.

A lot of football left. Its not like the NFC east is pulling away

I agree, but our schedule after the bye sucks. If we go 0-7 we do need to think about acquiring additional draft picks without giving up one, so we better see what Cousins can do. People are not going to bite on a backup QB that only played a few games the previous season. we need to keep him though. If the worst possible scenario plays out and MS is canned, along with Kyle you will get a new HC and OC who just might favor KC if he is more in tune with their offensive scheme.

A reasonable and logical approach .. On game day none the less

Well done sir
