I think KS tailored much of his playcalling to the insufficienies at QB and OL play. Grossman nor Beck can beat the blitz or lack of pass protection. They also lack the accuracy to complete passes in tight windows.

I honestly feel that this happened much later in the semester. Early on in the season, I felt that Kyle had a plan and would pretty much stick to it regardless of whether his OL and QB would perform. Far too often I saw the team pass from under center, right after the OL had been blown up for a sack. Also, far too often did I see Kyle call a deep downfield pass, even though we were 3rd and short. Also, it was early on in the season when Kyle went pass, pass, and pass wayyyy too often. Later on in the season (when things didn't matter) was when I saw Kyle adjusting to the team's deficiencies.

Just can't help but wonder what Flynn would've done against NYG last night. Rodgers did not have a great game at all. No you don't entertain the thought of benching Rodgers but, what's the reason for Rodgers' unimpressive play? Yes he was under pressure and sacked five times. Yes his WRs dropped a few few balls but, an equal amount of passes (if not more) were thrown off target.

I couldn’t help but wonder the same thing. You almost wanted Rodgers to get hurt so we all could get another look at Flynn....

I think the combination of 2 weeks off, seasonable cold instead of unseasonable warm weather like it had been, and their O coordinator’s son tragically dyeing days before through the GB offense off.

But as much as people like to say QB’s can get rusty after missing a game or 2 that wasnt true with Flynn. One of the things ive liked most about Flynn is that hes played well and has come in prepared and ready very late in the season after sitting for an extended time. Hes also remained extremely poised and looked comfortable in the pocket considering his lack of opportunity and real life experience. Thats extremely impressive to me.

So even with the difference in our offensive schemes I still think Flynn should be our top FA pursuit.

If the best QB in the game couldn't get it done, not sure what Flynn could have done different.

Their whole offense was just off. Drops, timing, bad throws, etc. They just seemed really rusty.

In a hypothetical sense. If this is the guy who's could lead this (Skins) team into the playoffs, how would he have fared? Of course you don't bench Rodgers. That doesn't cross your mind.

At this point, after the lackluster QB play weve had the last 10-15 years, can we afford to be content with a "viable starter"? With flynn, there is less risk of bust than say RGIII, but there is little promise of him entering elite status. I want a top 5-10 Quarterback, and will do what is needed to get that.I simply think that this is actually the other way around. Flynn isn't as accomplished as RGIII and is therefore a riskier bet to pan out.

My perfect world:

The Pack won't be tagging Flynn. The Skins offer whatever it takes to get him. No draft picks I'm talking money amount. Then we pick up RG3 in the draft. We grab some WR weapons in the FA bidding war and the Skins finally get an "A+" for their offseason moves and draft. Let the QBs battle it out for the starting spot. Maybe start Flynn and work RG3 in on some spread package that's added. If RG3 is the man lets work him into more playing time and we could trade Flynn next year or keep both.

Yeah, look at what being content with a viable starter has gotten the Ravens, 49ers, and even the Giants to a degree (Eli is so mediocre people around here actually made serious arguments that he wasn't as good as Jason Campbell).

We really need the future Aaron Rogers or Drew Brees. Can't win any more with a team that plays solid Defense, runs the ball well and passes pretty good, but maybe not great. It's all about throwing it 60 times a game.

Even if Rex threw for modest numbers like 22TDs and only 10INTs, we would have only won maybe 1 or 2 more games. We really need a 30 plus TD guy, and of course RGIII is going to step right in and do that in year 1. Because it happens all the time.

Sorry but this makes zero sense. Getting the (allegedly) most coveted player at the position in free agency AND trading up to get RGIII???

Put. The controller. Down.
