When is Enough ,Enough? - Skins Style

Gruden has to let players go. He can't figure that out. The list is so long on players that he has kept way past their expiration date. Maybe it is the FO also, Doug Williams as a former player maybe tries to give 88th chances, but this tweet from Schefter is abysmally stupid of the Skins.


If Colt is in that condition, the Skins need to make an injury settlement, and move on. This of course begs the question of the medical staff, if Colt feels that the Skins ended his career due to negligence or malfeasence his legal reps may be pushing for a severe injury settlement to go into retirement.

Regardless, Gruden and the FO ought to have cut players like Doctson, Perrine and the long list from the past far before then.

SO, the question of this rant is - what does everyone think will be that LAST STRAW that brings either Gruden, Doug Williams, or even BA down?

Colt is just the latest example, but I agree. The fact that he thinks Colt is a reliable option at this stage of his career, coming off that injury, is questionable. Look at the Eagles, they thought so highly of Nate Sudfeld (waiver wire pickup ex-Redskin 6th rounder) that they put a 2nd round tender on him.

Anyways I took the long route of saying I agree Gruden tends to hold onto players too long. Belichick is notorious for dumping guys in their early 30's, no matter how popular they are, Richard Seymour as an example.

And Bruce Allen won't be fired, after the stadium deal gets announced he will announce his retirement into an advisory/Danny S. racquetball partner role while saying it was his ambition of the last 10 years to deliver a stadium. Of course, we're still several years away from that happening so buckle up folks.

Starting Flowers...yikes.

I was just coming to rant Erik Flowers. Cut him and monitor to upcoming release wire. It makes zero sense at his cap hit to survive cuts. None

I thought Flowers played poorly but Smoot said he had a good game. I heard other say something similar. He missed on two plays but in the running game he was down field smashing linebackers.

What is frustrating with Flowers is that when he engages with a defender he's actually very good but he completely whiffs far too often.

He single-handedly stopped 3 drives in the 1st half against Atlanta.

Can't have that. :nono:

He can't hold a block and with decent running backs he doesn't need to do that , which is why as a guard he is better becuase he has the center and tackle to help him ,he is terrible in pass blocking. Putrid.

Trevor on NBC sports broke down the goal line sequence and he is gonna cost us points and 1st downs. He needs to go, this was a terrible idea from the beginning

Gruden has a whole list of marginal players that he holds onto no matter their performance:

Colt McCoy
Doctson
Perrine
Now Flowers

Gruden is in an impossible position. He is expected to have a winning record while the FO rebuilds. Perhaps he is afraid to play rookies. I don't know. As usual, mixed messages abound and there are contending goals for 2019.
