And, as CRedskinsRule so ably pointed out, we've put effort into running the ball this year. The perception that Gruden is overly pass-happy is just plain wrong, and the numbers show it. If the pass on 4th and 1 had worked, and it could have, everyone would be hailing him as a genius today. It wasn't a bad play call, it was bad execution.

Re: The everything Gruden thread
and yet Morris is 107 yds from 1000 yds. And #7 on the yardage list. With 70 more yards than Matt Forte and 9 more carries, in fact he is #5 in number of carries.
I think the lack of redzone production skews fan perspective on our offense, but we have been a good offense, even with several stinker games (and 1 blowout the other way). All this with a below average RT, a 3 headed rotational QB system, and a TE that is out every other game. It just seems to me that this has been a shakeout year. I was full of koolaid early on, but this year has been, like many first year coaches have, a year to sort out who Gruden will base his future on. My hopes are, like many others, he will fire Haslett, and get a real RT, and some safeties. Only time will tell. |

Re: The everything Gruden thread
I too feel that Gruden was making Griffin play his system as opposed to adapting to Griffin's strengths. That being said I felt Gruden wanted to hold Griffin out after the injury. Whether that was to give him time to heal or to develop the appropriate skills in practice I am not sure and regardless it never manifested that way.

Re: The everything Gruden thread
Good coaches adapt to their players strength's.....Gruden has not done this.... Not saying he should go but not giving him a free pass either.
Regardless what happens to him Haz must go and we must go back to the 4-3. The 3-4 has failed us. Most of our players would be better in a 4-3. Question is where to you play Kerrigan DE or LB or you could play him at both depending on the situation.. Rak - resign little more than vet min with incentives as a DE and if he doesn't accept let him walk.... |

Good coaches draft players in to their systems that fit. After having a few years.... It works both ways.

Re: The everything Gruden thread
I'll agree with that Bucket and go so far to say instead of "or" it should be "and" but when a coach comes in and the players don't fit he should adapt until he gets the players via draft or free agency that fits his scheme

Kerrigan was an outstanding 4-3 DE in college. Would he need to put on weight to play DE in the pros? The rookie from Stanford looks like he has the frame to be a DE in the pros. To me, paying near vet min for Orakpo doesn't seem to be realistic. Somebody is going to pay him more than that. The injury issues are still there with him but I think he could be a solid 4-3 DE. We've got people who either have or could do a good job as a DT in a 4-3, IMO. I'm not nearly as concerned about our DL personnel as most other posters seem to be but i could be wrong.

Re: The everything Gruden thread
Well I asked in another thread but nobody said how much input Gruden had this offseason? Harder to judge without all the draft picks though.

Shannon Sharpe offers the ultimate RGIII take - The Washington Post
Very interesting. So has RGIII been working as hard as we thought he has been?

I agree with that 100%. Too many people up here brushed aside his commercials and endorsements in the beginning. Well, they are very much related to how dedicated he is to football. Then again, Robert thought "practice was much harder than games" back in 2012. Robert was too busy acting like a superstar instead of actually becoming one.
