Im not saying that Griff wouldnt or wont benefit from being benched. Im saying that it worked for Rodgers and Young because they were mentored by hall of famers and not Colt Mccoy. Im really just picking on the first paragraph of your post because .... Well... We arent in that situation. At all.
The rest of your post I totally agree with. I didnt want Griff playing until after the Bucs game and that was only if we were out of the playoff hunt at that point. I was never in the "gotta let him play to learn camp". I think that was and is a stupid way of going about things.

Farve didn't mentor anyone and didn't play the big brother role. Neither did Montana. I think those guys sat, watched and learned and took it upon themselves to be successful. Plus Rodgers has elite skills. If Rodgers was in this offense, all the Wr's would be happy and this would be a top 3 offense.

I agree 100 %. Mentor is a bad word. I thought about that but My point was there isnt anyone there to learn from. No qb ever wants to be a mentor, they want to continue to be a starter.
Rodgers and young both had elite skills, and I alluded to that in my previous post.

You are missing the point....Give him time to learn. Don't throw him to the wolves.
Give him time to learn? Why? He jumps in the air when he throws the ball. He pats and double clutches constantly. He's still back peddling. He's taking very high number of sacks. He still never throws the ball on time or on his 5th step. All this after 34 starts. He's not learned anything, he's getting worse. Garçon, Jackson and the o-line probably want to kill the guy by now. He's just not a very good QB and he handcuffs the offense. 100 passing yards with our wr's is laughable. Gruden knows he sucks. He sees him everyday. Only reason he starts against Indy is cause of Napoleon.

Lol....remind me to add you to my "to angry to talk to list". Actually my posts were about Steve Young, Aaron Rodgers, and RG-3. You have every right to disagree. Lol.

Think how hard it is in today's NFL to pass for 100 yards.

Yeah and I know our wr's and rb are not the problem. Our oline might be pretty terrible but yeah man....100 yards. That is tough to do. I do not watch or study these play breakdown sites, but Griff had to have missed a handful of wide open wr's.

I always felt that Rex was kept for the 2012 and 2013 seasons as a mentor. IMO the game has changed. The expectations is that a QB will learn through a few growing pains while starting this is not a Snyder issue it is the NFL norm. Also it is not to much to expect the 2nd overall pick to be playing like a perennial all pro.

Need a new coach? Unreal.
Here is something to note. It's not the offensive line.

Sorry but that is one stat list that depending on circumstance can be 100% meaningless or misleading. Look at the top of that list most of those guys are
known as running QBs or highly mobile they are known for holding the ball longer than average believing they can extend plays, those same guys get sacked at a high rate. Look at who is at the bottom, human statue Peyton Manning who drops back to point X and either throws to the open man, throws a receiver open, or the ball away quickly as he knows his immobility gives him limited time. That list pretty much reflects the tendency of those on it not how good or bad the teams pass blocking is. Would you look at that list and say Denver's O-line should get an F grade in pass blocking? I would think not, it of course is the result of a stationary quick thinking quarterback.
