You have to have things go your way, sure, defense has to stop the other guys, but that's just what it is.Quote:

It was me and I have been pulling for this move since he was mentioned as a candidate, this isn't a Snyder hire, this is a Bruce Allen hire and Gruden won't ignore the defense so not hiring a D Coordinator doesn't bother me.Quote:

Too many critics in DC, let's see if RG3 just had a sophomore slump before we give up on him.
I don't know why you would give up on RG3. What people need to do is fix that crappy field and take advantage of his skill set.
I agree, yoshi and type Ryan have written him off already. Way too soon.Quote:

And by the way they did manage to nearly win the final two games against two of the best teams in the NFL that needed to win those games, but they flubbed a stupid 2nd and 1 call near the goal line against SF and allowed a 5 yard fumble return for TD against Carolina. So those young guys are imporving quickly.
