I believe all of the above is true.

But if this is the case - then if MS knows he is done, why not just bench RG3, play Cousins the rest of the way to evaluate him.

Then when he gets fired Cousins can go with him on his next team..

Wilson is good but he won't be better than Griffin down the road just wait

Definitely glad fans aren't in charge of the team. What a difference a year makes.

This. So much for Griffin being a leader. More like prima Donna..

They weren't in the same situation. You can't compare coaches taking over two different teams (and culture) and compare the two.

Shanahan is a good coach. Shanahan is a bad GM. That pretty much explains it.

Shanahan is a bad GM. He is not a good coach. He does not do very much coaching. He's a community organizer in charge of a billion dollar football operation. He's over his head.

Doesn't matter who the coach is. The owner can't have an open door policy so players can go over the coaches head.

That's not going to change. Whether it should is a different debate.

It's very much a pro-sports thing to have an owner-QB relationship. The NFL is a relationships business. Coaches are as big a culprit of such a culture as any entity.

So Rex Grossman, John Beck, Patrick Ramsey, Jason Campbell, etc had this type of relationship.

Only one we gave up a significant amount to get was Campbell...and he frankly would have benefited from such a situation.
