It really makes you wonder why they would continue to have faith in these guys when it's so painfully obvious, but I have to go back to the Washington Generals theory that they're set up to fail as the plan. If we had a great offensive line suddenly and one more great receiver then what? It would ruin the plan to have Rottenbooger ride off into the sunset ala Peyton Manning, Elway and a whole list of has been, washed up QBs who in their last season(s) unexplainably with career ending injuries looming suddenly win it all because it's written in the script..
I feel like that's a yearly narrative around here. There's always a player or position group some of us begrudgingly hope exits via injury because the odds of said player or position group being benched are practically zero.
I have yet to ever reach that point, because I always hate to see players injured. No matter who it is. But I will admit there's certain players I won't lose any sleep over if they're lost for the season. Addition by subtraction can be a very real thing
