the season comes down to Thursday? with 5 games left?

Re-read please, I never said "season" I said "division." We can still have a pretty decent season.

that's what I meant, division. You think the division is locked up with 5 games to play?

Colt is 1-3 as a starter a loss to Dallas is reason enough to draw that conclusion.

who is Colt's backup?

Right now it's TE Reed or WR Quinn. This team has massive losses along their offensive line, their best defensive lineman is being evaluated for concussion. There are other injuries at running back and defensive back. Gruden says this:

Jay Gruden On Colt McCoy: "I Think He's Got The Skill Set That Fits Perfect For What We Do"

And they then trade for Alex Smith instead of going with the guy who fits perfectly? Nope, with 5 games left and a forced insertion of the "perfect fit" guy who has a career starting record of 1-3, I'm not buying it. IMO, the division title is up for grabs on Thursday with the winner of that particular game the likely claimant.

The Colt idea is cute and he may win a game or two but I would also be worried that Colt doesn't make it through 6 games without injury.

Exactly!! Good story but it's Colt McCoy who was last seen losing the job after a neck injury. Remember those old "you know" jokes? Well here's another one.

You know you're in trouble if,... Colt McCoy is a step up from the other guy. :crazy::L:gaah::tsk::burt:

Smith was a colossal disappoint. I'll man up and take my lumps. Colt might make some mistakes, but should keep defenses on thier heels. Feel bad for Smith. Jay finally has his guy. Hook Jay up to a lie detector test and I'd wage money he has always liked Colt better than RG3, Kirk, and Alex.

Confidence level: 7

Just as long as Trent, CT, Crowder, and Dunbar get back soon.

Here’s the thing...adults don’t give lumps to people who man up and admit an err. Adults respect it.

Yeah man, the spin has already begun on Colt being the guy that this team needs to lead them.

Jay Gruden On Colt McCoy: "I Think He's Got The Skill Set That Fits Perfect For What We Do"

Maybe Colt comes in an we get a win in Dallas on Thursday, that indeed would be a pleasant surprise. BTW: it would be another in along list of reasons, to fire Bruce Allen, then question Gruden for not insisting that Colt was the perfect guy for what they do all along.
The Eagles ran with Foles, The Skins run with McCoy!

Sty, can we fire Snyder first and go down the list from there?

I've got a few coins, but not nearly enough to buy Snyder out. Unfortunately, that's the only way he gets removed barring a tragedy. Maybe we can start a gofundme account?

Snyder has failed at so many business (sadly not at Snyder Communications) … he is trying hard to f*ck up being a team owner which is just about impossible. You can be a bad one but pretty close to anything you do you still make megabucks as an owner.

Since I respect your advice should I have my Thanksgiving feast on Thursday before the game starts or after it is over?

Most running QBs don't last too long in this league and I don't think we have another one.
Maybe a miss communication. I wasn't being literal with a running QB. Saying McCoy will be adequate during this run to the end of the season as did Foles in Philly last year. Perhaps Philly may want to think about starting Foles again. :dhd:

I was just messing with you and I did understand your point. We both hope that if McCoy has to do too much running from the QB position he will hold up through the end of the season.
