im for what is best for the team. Do you really think I want to give up on RG3 with the picks we gave up for him? Its my opinion that I think Cousins is better fit for this football team b/c of the new coach. How does that make me a bad fan? lol. you guys are crazy. If someone disagrees with Rg3's playing style you bash them?


I'm not alone why did Gruden say to the media that RG3 might not get his job back when he is healthy? Explain that comment boys.

why do you think dean ? would you rock the boat if the team was winning ? but so far we are not so i wonder what will happen because that 1/2 quarter before he got hurt he was the Rg3 of his rookie season

You also appear to want RG3 to fail which is pretty lame if you actually consider yourself a fan.

SoCal as an outsider looking in I see this on both sides of the argument. There were some where seem to cherish that KC had a bad game. I'd just say this to you all. Let the two play it out and everybody get behind the winner.

Also as an outsider I see two possible good to very good NFL QB's. KC may be closer now and can be a NFL QB. RGIII has a much larger way to go but if he puts it all together he will be much harder to defend. My concerns with RGIII is he doesn't play like a NFL QB and his knees may forever prevent him from being a star. As a Cowboy fan I prefer Cousins to win the job but that has more to do with it means the RGIII experiment failed.

Pretty fair assessment, thanks for the posts.

As the biggest Cousins basher here I can assure you that I was not rooting for him to fail. I highly doubt any of those in that camp enjoyed Thursday Night. But with that said as you can see in my signature Dean openly cheered RGIII's injury, then could not figure out why he got the reaction that he did. He still does not get it, to this day he will insist he did nothing wrong.

So you see we have one side of the argument simply using Thursday Night as more evidence that Cousins may look better in the pocket now but will probably never be the guy we need and the other side openly cheering an injury and making excuse after excuse for his guy's failure. He insists his guy can improve on a problem he has had for 5 years yet dismisses the possiblity that Griffin can improve on something he has been trying to learn since May. They dismiss last year's final 3 games as meaningless yet base their opinion on who should be there QB on who looks better in more meaningless preseason games.

That is a big difference.

I can't speak for anyone else. I have stated repeatedly that I will root for either one of them since I am first & foremost a Redskins fan. I felt like crap after the Thu loss & take absolutely no delight in seeing Cousins play poorly. I will be rooting for him in a major way in any game where he plays for the Redskins.

I made it very clear that I am not rooting against either guy & also indicated that perhaps the future starting QB for the Skins is not even on the roster. However - deanpet has a reading comprehension problem & only reads what he wants to believe. He kept referring to me and others as RG3 backers which is clearly not the case. I stand by my take - he is a terrible Redskins fan since he only cheers certain players & not the team. If he was a decent fan he would hope that both RG3 & Cousins play lights out (would be a great problem for the Redskins).

Oh well - not sure why some folks find it so hard to believe that some folks strictly cheer for the team regardless of who is the starting QB.

I wasn't trying to point fingers directly at anyone, only that it's been a two way street. And no I wasn't defending dean. You are correct on calling him out for cheering the RGIII injury.

I'm sure that if one of the two meets their potential and won the job most of you will agree his the right guy. Of course there will always be a hold out or two.

Cool. Both RG3 & Cousins have flaws that need to be addressed. However - they both have upsides. Both could get themselves straightened out or perhaps not. I guess you could say that for many NFL QBs & that is what makes it both fun & frustrating. Look at someone like Cutler - the guy has as much talent as anyone & just when you think that he is going to take his game to a new level he screws it all up.

This is why we watch this game.

Many Redskins fans believe KC is better for the team. So I don't know where "im not a Redskins fan" came from by supporting KC. You guys still haven't answered the Gruden comment on when he said KC could keep the starting job when RG3 comes back from injury. Why would Gruden say that if he had confidence in RG3? IMO that comment means that he has no confidence in RG3. Gruden admitted that KC was a better fit for this offense than RG3.


Im for who succeeds for this team. You guys blow this way out of proportion.

Is Joe Thiesman a bad Redskins fan for saying that Cousins should have been the starting QB from Week1? socal thinks so.

Again you openly cheered a horrible injury to the QB of your team who was not your QB of choice. You have been called out on it by half the board, including fans of other teams, yet you have still not acknowledge that it was over the line and not the behavior of a real fan. In fact it's the behavior of a horrible fan. So no we are not blowing anything out of proportion, it's you that needs a lesson in perspective.

As for Gruden's comments correct me if I'm wrong but I believe he said that after the Philly game and before the New York disaster Regardless it's not that big of a deal IMO. He is simply keeping all his options open. Truth is Griff has not done enough this year to be a lock for the job. If Cousins had continued his play of his first 2 games he would have been an idiot to switch back to Griffin.

 

[Darrell Green Fan]

As everyone is in a panic over our QB situation that is hardly a done deal I suggest you take a look around the league at cities like Buffalo, Oakland, Houston, Jacksonville etc and then take a deep breath and slow down. This situation does not need to be resolved today, we've got another year and 3/4 before the team needs to do anything and we have 2 QBs who at times have been nothing short of brilliant.

Hmm.. Was Theismann cheering when RG3 was hurt? Does Theismann still have the EXACT same pt of view after the Giants game? Please go back & read exactly what I said & stop cherry picking replies.

OK Great Fan - answer one simple question. Let's Skins are average or worse this season & RG3 becomes the starter again. What will your reaction be to RG3 & the team at that time? Cmon - redeem yourself.

 

[skinz2winz]

I will guarantee you this, when Griffin is fully healthy, he will resume his starting role.

 

[deanpet21]

you cant say that for a certainty skinzwinz.

 

[deanpet21]

Not cherry picking comments. Just stating what has been told. It is a big deal b/c it shows you have no confidence in RG3 by saying those comments. Gruden threw RG3 under the bus with that comment b/c he believes KC can be the starter for this team.
