On Our Message Boards:

  • The trade for Griffin, who immediately turned in a ROY performance, is in no way a debacle. Poor play after injuries isn’t a damn debacle. it’s bad luck. It doesn’t even come close to comparing to Hayneworthless, deion, bruce smith, everything in the spurrier era, . . . I realize that the "give it to me now" 24 hour news cycle, everything is a story nature of today’s day and age inhibits rationale thought, but seriously. The horse is dead, Griffin is the QB. Move. On.

    Thread: Skins trade for S Dashon Goldson, swap 2016 picks

  • Juggled QBs last year? He started the season with Griffin, I don’t think he could’ve done otherwise if he wanted to so in my mind that doesn’t even count as a decision. Griffin gets hurt and Cousins goes in, I don’t think you could really count that as a decision either because the starter was hurt. In my mind he makes his first decision when he decided to pull Cousins. I can’ t fault him because Cousins did have some terrible quarters so the switched made sense and it worked McCoy played well enough to lead the Skins to two victories. Griffin returned to the lineup. Was this Gruden’s decision? I don’t think so Synder mandated it in my opinion. You may believe Gruden made that decision but I can’t imagine why he would, Griffin started because Daniel Snyders owns the franchise. When Griffin got dinged Gruden went back to McCoy. As I see it Gruden decided to bench Cousins, Snyder mandated the rest.

  • I’m kind of laughing about this mock draft I pulled off today on fanspeak. Not sure which of their boards I was using, but needless to say I was happy to get Landon Collins in the third round AND Danny Shelton in the fourth.

  • He was one of the key Redskins I remember when I first watched them play. Class act.

  • What the heck is a Speedy Gun Gordon? It sounds like a nickname one would garner for being quick on the draw. If you catch my drift.
