OT: Dwayne Haskins experiment over
The Washington Football Team has announced that Dwayne Haskins will be benched in place of Kyle Allen.
As if it couldn't get worse for Haskins, the Washington Football Team announced former one legged QB Alex Smith with be promoted to the #2 spot - backing up Allen.
From starting QB to 3rd stringer over night.
But, dude got paid. He's got that going for him.

Yeah, I don't often call my shot properly but there's a reason all of his QBs wind up being viewed as WRs by the NFL. I'm fairly certain Fields will wind up burning out in the NFL for the same reasons.
October 7th, 2020 at 11:25 AM ^
Yeah, this will work out great. Now the Lions can select Trevor with the #1 overall pick and peddle Stafford to the Redskins for a 2nd round....
Oh wait, that would be some forward thinking.....
nm.....

Lions should offer Stafford for draft picks - Washington still has a shot at playoffs in that terrible division, and it's time for Detroit to go into full blown rebuild. (this coming from a non-Lions Steelers fan, but I have won my Fantasy Football league 3 of 4 years and am pretty skilled in Madden)
October 7th, 2020 at 11:57 AM ^
I too am a Steelers fan and I wouldn't mind Stafford being traded to the Steelers as we know this is getting close to Ben's final year.
October 7th, 2020 at 3:34 PM ^
I'm not a Steelers fan but if they had Stafford and Devin Bush Jr I would pretty much have to root for them
October 7th, 2020 at 4:06 PM ^
The Lions.....rebuilding since 1955
October 7th, 2020 at 11:37 AM ^
It would be nice if, for once, an Ohio State quarterback flames out before they play Michigan, not after tearing us apart (again).
October 7th, 2020 at 11:39 AM ^
Honestly, I don't get much out of dancing on the graves of OSU QBs. I'd rather we beat them when we played them, and then wished them well in life.
October 7th, 2020 at 12:16 PM ^
Yeah, but he'll always be the answer to the trivia question, who was the first B1G QB drafted in the 1st round since Kerry Collins in 1995?
And isn't that what really matters?
October 7th, 2020 at 12:22 PM ^
So 11w all in on Jay Gruden being the problem. He wasn’t on the Haskins train! I think That excuse will be offered up for Fields one day. Not a pro style qb
October 7th, 2020 at 12:26 PM ^
he has a horrendous OL....but the fact is that at OSU he had the best of everything...wonder if Bellichek can do something with him....
October 7th, 2020 at 4:31 PM ^
You never know about Belicheck Fundamentals are taught. But the price tag is high
October 7th, 2020 at 12:30 PM ^
Washington Football Team = dyslexic WTF
October 7th, 2020 at 8:07 PM ^
Hey watch it, I resemble that remark lol
October 7th, 2020 at 12:50 PM ^
Never forget his first career NFL td pass was to...Jabrill Peppers
October 7th, 2020 at 1:15 PM ^
The B1G has had 2 1st round quarterback draft picks in the last 25 years (Kerry Collins & Dwayne Haskins).
In just the past 10 years Oklahoma has had 3 QB's drafted #1 overall.
October 7th, 2020 at 1:19 PM ^
I actually liked Haskins coming out in the draft, even though I thought he was incredibly overrated in terms of draft stock. He should never have been anything more than a day 2 pick.
He was a guy who needed a really good QB coach and to sit for a year or even two. I think that would have paid huge dividends for him instead of him being tossed into the fire right away with the worst supporting cast and management in the NFL. Had he gone to a team like Atlanta, New Orleans, Green Bay, or New England, I think he would have been able to sit and learn for a bit and then be prepared to succeed.
October 7th, 2020 at 2:46 PM ^
This is true for an absurd number of quarterbacks.
October 7th, 2020 at 4:18 PM ^
Yup. Very true for a shrinking, but sizable amount of QBs.
October 9th, 2020 at 6:32 AM ^
Elway and Plunket didnt start off well in the NFL either.
October 7th, 2020 at 3:12 PM ^
If I'm an NFL GM I'm not touching an OSU QB with a high draft pick to save my life.
October 7th, 2020 at 3:50 PM ^
These things always happen with corporate take overs and mergers..... The Redskin's drafted the guy, thought he was their best option at QB.... The Washington Football team takes over the organization and decides to go a different direction.
October 7th, 2020 at 5:01 PM ^
Brady currently has 219 regular season wins as a starter. I can't imagine all OSU QBs matching that collectively in my lifetime.
October 7th, 2020 at 5:02 PM ^
Dont I know it.
October 7th, 2020 at 5:03 PM ^
C'mon people. OSU QBs don't go to the NFL to play football.
October 7th, 2020 at 7:57 PM ^
Haskins isnt the problem for that team.
October 7th, 2020 at 8:21 PM ^
Damn shame, damn shame.
Also
Fuck Ohio State.
October 7th, 2020 at 9:08 PM ^
Don Brown made him a ton of dollars.
October 8th, 2020 at 1:15 PM ^
come on! he didn't go to the NFL to play football, that's where he went play school. He's just got his timelines backwards.
