Pregame Thread: Redskins vs Colts

[Bucket]

The Era of Colt McCoy has begun. I'm excited to see what he can do.

[WillH]

Yeah wouldn't it be nice if we actually find out we have a decent starter, until we can figure out the future. Good luck Colt!

Not excited at all, Mccoy sucks folks, sorry but he'll probably be benched for Cousins sooner or later

Colts 24

I don't get why we write off Colt so quickly

Me either.

He was in a terrible situation in Cleveland. Gets judged for his arm strength, but some of the best in the NFL don't have incredible arm strength. I think his intangibles are some of the best we've ever had in Washington behind center.

The Texas Noodle is the best game manager we have. I think Colt will stick for the rest of the year because he makes the fewest negative plays and, while limited, makes enough positive plays.

I know nothing, including why the heck any of our QBs are being written off at this point. Nick Foles took a year to become a decent QB, didnt he? Wasnt Eli Manning being discussed as a bust early in his career, before he became a decent QB?

Rg3 shined in Mike and Kyles 2012 system. I thought McCoy looked decent in CLE, just not as good as Hoyer, and good for us. And Cousins is just getting started.

What was the number? 27 qb's in 21 years? The organization has made us a tad bit skeptical.

Liked him coming out of Texas, a classic wc offense qb. I don't think he can get the ball down the field like Jay wants him to do sometimes. arm strength issue was obvious that 1st half in Dallas.

He is a resilient little bastard, very tough qb. Much more so that Kirk or rg3 and think that is the connection really matters with Jay.

This. It feels kinda like the year Todd Collins got the chance and pretty much killed it, we should have stuck with him and let J Campbell learn that offense behind a veteran who can run it.

Maybe Gruden knows exactly what he's doing.

Colt McCoy, you mean Colt McCoy that used to play for the Browns? You mean that Colt McCoy? I already know him. We used to call him Beck.

What do you call RG3 then? Just a plain loser?

RG3: 1-4 2014 team record, 85.7 RTG

McCoy: 2-0 2014 team record, 107.0 RTG

I wish RG3 could get back to 2012 form, but Gruden has to play the best current QB, and right now that isn't Robert Griffin the third.

If McCoy had played since the Dallas game, and either him or Cousins played week one, there is no doubt in my mind we are a 6-7 win team rite now and very much alive still. No doubt whatsoever.
