Gruden is putting big time pressure on Griffen that now is the time to step up.


"He's auditioned long enough"

"His biggest thing, he's been coddled for so long,"

I think Gruden knows RGMe is at a cross road. He's wants to see if the diva can man up and get it done so theyll know if they need to go out and get another QB.

How can you not love watching this train wreck unfold?

I'm still amazed at how blunt he is talking about his QB.

It's unbelievable, really. I've never heard anything like it. After I heard some of the comments Gruden made after last week's game I went and watched the interview and was shocked at the detail at which he ripped apart their star QB's performance. It'll be interesting to see how things unfold for them.

It's almost like he wants out of Washington. Either that or he knows the only way he can succeed is to be honest about how bad this QB really is. Either the owner is going to allow a change there or he's going to let Gruden off the hook and let some other sad sack waste their time coaching him.

I guess this is Gruden standing up for himself. Can't blame him if he thinks Griffin isn't going to help him. Dangerous talk for a rookie head coach though.

Article up on NFL.com saying Gruden has power to bench Griffin.

There are 3 kinds of people in life: those that respond to positive reinforcement , those that respond to negative reinforcement and those that don't respond . RGIII has not responded to positive reinforcement . Gruden is trying to find out which of the other 2 RGIII is.

Not a bad strategy

Problem is Cousins didn't show much when he had a chance.

This has to put a smile on the face of every Cowboy fan alive. The talk of 2 really QB options on the roster, and Cousins being some great asset that might bring them a #1 pick in a trade to now a guy that might be the biggest bust in NFL history and a backup that isnt worth much.

Don't know, that's a tall order to eclipse JaMarcus Russell in that department.

Why not let McCoy have another game and see what he got, he looked better the both RGKnee and Cousins. At this point it doesn't matter, their season is over.

I am not.


As a coach. You have to stand your ground.
Otherwise it's curtains for you.

Gruden coms in with franchise QB already in place.
Gruden knows that ain't his future QB.
Gruden knows that this guy in on individual diva status.

He can only gain the respect of the players.
Result: Snyder will have to get over it. Gruden stays. Find a new home for RGIII. = raiders.

RG3 is done. Only thing to watch for now is what team he'll wind up with

I'm sure they probably already know what they got...a backup qb that played the game of his life in his own state and will not be able to replicate that performance against 30 other teams. That is why he is not starting now. And the only reason he is the #2 qb on the team is because cousins mentally went over the edge.
