Expectations for the rest of the season...

As always (or usual) a good balanced writeup by Keim

Midseason report: Washington Redskins - Washington Redskins Blog - ESPN (http://espn.go.com/blog/washington-redskins/post/_/id/12602/midseason-report-washington-redskins-2?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitterfeed)

I want to see as many young guys on the field as possible.

For myself, the best thing the Skins have going for them is that Gruden is truthful about how the team and each individual plays. With Shanahan you always got BS, but Gruden tells it like it is. With RGIII Gruden knows he won't win. The Skins would be better off with McCoy or Cousins starting. McCoy deserved to start the Vikings game, should have started, and maybe the team thought McCoy deserved to start the game too.

The Skins drafted RGIII but I think they really got RGZero.

So now the Skins have to figure a way to draft a "Tom Brady" QB in the sixth round of the next draft.

Haven't we seen enough of Cousins? I know I sure have.

Kirk Cousins?? Da Fuq??

JLee9718 and Gary84Clark should have a deep and meaningful discussion of the Redskins QB situation.

Well - RG3 is back in there, and that unfortunatley is for better or worse. I think as long as he is in there - you hover around .500 worse case scenario, and if he plays well perhaps you squeak one or two out.

I understand the need for Snyder to tell Gruden that he is playing RG3, but in turn that meant we ended up benching the guy who had won two straight (Colt McCoy).

I also sort of wonder what kind of shit will hit the fan if the skins lose out, and i wonder if that ever comes up in anyones conversations - that the decision on starting QB was made by the owner.

I think it brings up the other great point that many posters have pointed out. It's going to be very tough to get good HC's and coordinators when it is well known that in actuality they have very little say on personnel, who to start, etc.. I can't imagine any legit HC coming here after Gruden when he already knows that he may not get the final say on who starts, etc...

I hope we finish better than last year. 6-10 sucks but it shows some improvement. I think in year two Gruden has to be at least 8-8 or he' gone....

God I'd pray not. Gruden has the kind of attitude we need in a head coach. I've said it before and I'll say it again, we need a franchise coach as much as we need a franchise quarter back.

I'm tired of the revolving door and the same old same old.

The Skins drafted RGIII but I think they really got RGZero.

What we really need to do is to bring back Shane Matthews. He has more experience than any QB on the roster and has the same ability to succeed as Cousins or McCoy.
