Something else had to have happened. I mean his body language says it all, to be honest. And that stuff is part of why he never won over a contingent of fans. He doesn’t have the charisma. He also is a pure pocket QB, so he wasn’t winning games to buy himself time while he developed as a passer here. I think he has a shot in the league as long as he lands somewhere that has patience and can sit him. I hope he does. I really don’t want to see a young man lose doing what he loves.

The " big picture " is Haskins has not been playing well, seems to have regressed since the end of last year and is making the same mistakes over and over again. Benching him now shows they haven't given up on this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yea. When you are out of contention it's much easier to justify development, teams do it all the time. When you are in contention and a player is hurting you, he gets the bench.

Llevron Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 God honest in 20 years the one thing I know ima remember about Haskins is that they took this bammas pants when they benched him lmaooooooooooo 😂😂😂 I aint ever seen anything like this! They aint have to do him like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOATFrerotte Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Now the big question is how long is the leash for Allen. Is it 3-4 games, or if he stinks it up against the Rams is that it. I would imagine Ron is going to give him couple games to see what he can do like Haskins then go from there. Come on Allen, don't let me down!! Lead this team to the playoffs like I believe you can!

He was on par with other developing QBs, had zero turnovers in 3 out of 4 games, and played better last week, against one of the leagues top defenses, but okay.

veteranskinsfan Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I think there is a lot going on in the locker room we do not know about. Like what if the captains went to Rivera and said players are frustrated and want some light at the end of the tunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'd add they were probably not leaning positive and whatever happened it tipped the balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter how much Rivera wants to throw his QB under the bus, Its not all on Haskins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume there is more cooking with Haskins than just the 4 performances. Quite a few of us were not really that high on Haskins. I would bet there is more to this than play. There has to be an attitude component. This seems really quick. And I can see Ron not having a lot of patience for someone slinging attitude. How to believe that agent tweet hurt pretty bad. It will be worse if Allen comes in and moves the team down the field, even if he makes some mistakes. We will see. The other thing I said after last year was Haskins had a higher ceiling than D. Jones but he also had a lower floor than D. Jones. Guess it was the later.. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
