I feel ok with keeping Gruden and the offensive staff, given the way the O has performed with non-stellar QB play. The D is underperforming, in my opinion, though they clearly need a talent upgrade at a number of spots. So better coaches and schemes, better players.

Look, it's a long haul. My view: keep Gruden; new D staff; get some friggin talent evaluators!

This is pretty spot on. The Redskins were 13th in Yards, 11th in Passing, and 19th in Rushing. Their worst offensive listing was points at 26th. The coaching staff were able to do that with poor/inconsistent QB play and an offensive line not suited for Jay's power running schemes. If The Skins had a better defense they could have won a couple more games.
