[MTK]

This is how I see it, and how I think the Skins probably do too

Plan A: Griffin
Plan B: Manning
Plan C: Orton

Plan C will really really depress me. Orton is just Grossman spelled wrong.

I can live with Orton for the short term if Tannehill is being groomed behind him.

Yeah, again my only real concern with Orton is that (from various people I've spoken to) he's kind of a dick and may not be the best locker room presence for a young like Tannehill. Grossman's just the opposite

Yeah I remember hearing he's "moody".

Oh well, I'd rather have that over Grossman and his 2 INTs a game.

Tannehill seems like a pretty good kid, I'm sure he can handle himself.

Plan C depresses me too. In my eyes Orton is a Rex with less interceptions. I dont want any parts of having him on the roster. I would rather start on of those 2nd teir rookies then mess with Orton.

BTW I am sick of hearing about us try to get someone failed project of a QB. Orton, Henne, Sanchez etc.....

Rex without the picks would have been enough to get us very close or even in the playoffs last year IMO.

As a bridge starter until someone like Tannehill is ready, why not? What's the alternative, Rex with the picks?

maybe I have too much confidence/stupid hope but i think we will end up with one of the first 2. what about both?

I think I agree with that but I also think it can't get to plan C. Plan C= Pitchforks & Torches out front of Redskins Park.

This fan base is so geared up for RG3 or Manning that to give them Orton would create a Jim Fassel backlash x 2.

Nice thread SS. Interesting poll results. I guess we know where the Warpath stands.

IMO options 4 and 5 are off the table, mainly cuz Skins nation would revolt. Just imagine the Warpath...

The only options that can be confidently sold to this fanbase are 1 and 3. They can probably get away with option 2 for the short term but it's very thin ice. If Tannehill doesn't evolve quickly it could get ugly.

Since your post is in English it would be rude of me to respond in Spanish. So I break the cool chain.

I agree. I would argue further that, leaving fans aside, plan C is what we've been doing for 20 years. We need a change of tactic regarding QB.

Bueno. Revolver a espanol.

Exactly!

And it took about 17 years but I am finally paying the price for cheating my way through Spanish class in college...

If he wants to, there's a locker waiting for him. I thought the first three (well among the first three) players to come here when we got Shanahan were Royal, Grossman, and Torain. Got two out of three so far.
