Best QB on our roster for the current team and system

I love the Redskins and until RGIII is not identified as our starting QB, I will root for him. I actually like the guy and think he has real ability, although I would agree with the many criticisms about his play since 2012. I would love to see him come roaring back and prove everyone wrong.

Having said all that, if he starts in the Ravens game (as it appears he will) and gets the whole first half to play and shows what we have seen so far (turnovers, failure to slide in the pocket and see open receivers, etc.), I don't know how Gruden can say he's the starter going into the regular season. I realize that the defenses for Cleveland, Detroit, and B-more are stout, but you have to be able to show something in the preseason (and not just in practice) to justify the starting role -- especially if the backups appear to be having greater success (yes, against backups) and command of the offense. Gruden is in a very difficult position here, made easier only if (a) RGIII lights it up this week with a solid performance, or (b) hate to say it, RGIII gets hurt this week. Anything other than these two scenarios will make his next few weeks before the regular season hell (and ours as well).

Not to be that guy, but he wasn't cut, his contract expired and the team just waited a while before re-signing.

Same thing and no other team came knocking. Colt is exactly where he should be 3rd string.

If you have to debate which of your 3 QBs is your best, you don't have a QB.

Say it with me now... it... doesn't... matter.

Maybe you are little young to remember the 49ers from 1991-1992 Joe Montana
was on I.R. but many thought he was healthy enough to play more than just the last game of the 1992 season. Steve Young's success starting seemed to delay Montana's return from elbow surgery. Steve Bono had a 5-1 record as a starter when Young was injured. Two guys are in the HOF and Steve Bono had a career 28-14 record as a starter. Do note that was before the salary cap era.

what if RG3 comes out and plays the same way he has so far this preseason and all of last season this weekend against B-more?

For this current team and what it seems like Gruden wants to do on offense, Kirk Cousins is the best fit at QB.

There are two possibilities:

1. If he is physically able to play in Week 1, he will start regardless of the quality of his performance against B-More. It is a mandate from Snyder.

2. If he gets broken in half by the Ravens defense and is physically unable to play in Week 1, then Kirk will start.

I believe that Kirk is being underrated by many people. He looks improved to me and I think that he'll perform well if given the chance.

Oh how I loathed that team back then (still do for the most part).
They had a charmed roster.....feckers.....

Irish, this is Danny Boy decision at QB, Gruden has no say in the matter.


Because that is how a circus franchise which is a laughing stock within football circles is run. With the Owner who makes personel decisions.
