WOW!!! Kyle Allen will be starting vs Rams. Let the board melee begin...

[Caliskinsfan]

RR obviously thinks Kyle Allen gives this team a better chance to win. Lot of details to follow no doubt.

Deans gonna have himself a field day with self congratulations...lol

Good we can be in the Trey Lance or Trevor Lawerence sweepbstakes 1-15 should get us there

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

No Alex Smith?

 

[Caliskinsfan]

RR making it clear about how he feels with this QB order

 

[Caliskinsfan]

No Alex Smith?

QB 2 now

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

QB 2 now

I didn't get to watch Allen much last year, but I have a feeling we will be seeing Alex Smith before long.

First major red flag from Ron Rivera.

I don't get this benching at all. It's been 4 games.

Total BS.....he has never started a full season.....he was drafted by Gruden who was already on the hot seat and then Rivera comes in and has no ties to him....goes ahead and benchesc him in favor of Allen.....

 

[DJ]

And he played better under orders last week.....

 

[DJ]

No Alex Smith?

He is the backup now and may start before the season is over.....Allen showed a propensity for bad INT's last season in Carolina.

Unless you think you can get something in a trade for Haskins, I don't get it. Allen isn't a good QB... If you think Haskins sucks, ride him to the top of the draft and get a QB that has the potential to lead you somewhere.

If Allen doesn't do better...Rivera could legitimately be on the hot seat in year one. Like I said many times...if you want Haskins to sit, learn and develop then sit him at the beginning of the season. Don't take him out 4 games in and expect this to help him and/or the future unless RR is just giving up on Haskins altogether in his short stint....he didn't draft him so I guess we will see. This organization seems to just make bad move after bad move...I put this one on Rivera though, wonder if he was getting pressured by the FO?

Hope not but never know what Danny Boy is up to

I’m not certain that Smith will play against the Rams or later this season, but I think it’s pretty neat for him to suit up. Being on the roster is great, but street clothes these past four games couldn’t possibly feel real. Even putting on real pads, being a helmet to hear the calls (as backups wear), and knowing you are one snap away from action, must be pretty exciting.

Washington makes QB change, benching Haskins

I think RR feels he’s got to give him a chance to suit up. He had a convo with Alex before season that definitely influenced him regarding Alex basically saying he WANTS at all costs to get another shot.

I cringe at the thought of our team being the one to give him that shot.

[Caliskinsfan]

Lol. Hope not but don’t have high hopes with this town, media and fan base

[skinsdad62]

Well then Haskins isn’t the guy and we will be in the market for a qb .

And if that is the case so be it

Time to support Allen because if he fails ,it sets the team back another year or 2

 

[MHSL82]

His agent didn’t help to talk about it in public:
Probably didn’t cause anything, but watching Washington from afar, it seems that there could be something petty involved.
