He is better than any uninjured QB we have and would be at least as likely to win if not more so.

Here's a question.

I wonder how he'd be received in the locker room ?!?!?!?
Forget the locker room, what would Alex think about it? I don't think Alex would want him here considering their history??
Alex may never play another down. There doesn't seem to be much positivity in his recovery. The team can't base their future on his future.

Alex Smith said (last season?) that Kaepernick is a fine QB who deserves to play in the NFL. Sure, Kaepernick out-played Smith in SF, but that's no big deal. Anyway, there is no reason to believe that Smith will play next season, and maybe not ever.

That's a damn good update of the ol' I'll eat my hat.

Thanks, it's a fine fine piece of soft black leather with the Redskins logo in full color on the front.

I'm actually afraid of wearing it outside!

Don't give a damn how he is received in the locker room. This is one 32 year retired vet who will move to the Ravens, rather than being insulted by this team. I'm damned close as it is. There is nothing in this jackasses history that would permit me to forgive any team that hires him... but, ESPECIALLY this team. This team can ill afford additional losses to their increasingly weak fan base.

You mean you're not already insulted by this team? 8-[

Appears that Sanchez will back up Johnson. Gruden hopes that Colt McCoy will start a playoff game, if the Redskins make the playoffs. "He's healing".

Is this Snyder-Allen-Gruden fantasy, or just silly?

If Gruden wants out that's one way to get there. The entire team philosophy from top to bottom is asinine. You couldn't trade all three of those players for one conditional 7th round draft pick.

Yes, I do. I also know this ownership and this management doing what they've always done will get them what they've always gotten. They need to do everything differently from top to bottom. Since the owner is never going to sell the franchise ... NEVER ... You can use all caps ... there are so many other things that can be changed.
