Redskins Need to Fire Jay Gruden After Another Embarrassing Loss and Lack of Direction at QB

The Washington Redskins fell to the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football in genuine humiliating fashion, despite what the 31-15 score might indicate -- it was 28-3 at halftime and Matt Nagly clearly told his squad to take their foot off the gas pedal in the final 30 minutes.

Jay Gruden's team is now 0-3, dead last in the NFC East, and is being outscored 94-63 in those three games. And while nobody truly expected the Redskins to make noise in their respective division or conference in 2019, almost all pundits surmised that the club flaunted enough talent to at least remain competitive.

However, that has been anything but the case, which tells us that Washington needs to pull the trigger and cut ties with Gruden once and for all.

It goes beyond the Redskins' palpable lack of team spirit, too. After the L, Gruden came out and brazenly asserted that he's sticking with Case Keenum as his starting quarterback.

Folks, Keenum was alarmingly woeful on Monday night. Thanks to garbage time and game script, he threw for over 330 yards and two touchdowns but that doesn't even come close to telling the story.

The Houston product also committed five costly turnovers -- three interceptions and two fumbles -- that put this contest to bed well before the halftime break.

Letting Keenum, a veteran who isn't leading this team anywhere, get the nod over a promising rookie in Dwayne Haskins is simply moronic.

If Gruden were wise, he'd see this lost season as an opportunity to see what the franchise has in the former Ohio State Buckeye. The fact that he was so quick to dismiss that notion tells us all we need to know.

The Redskins need to move on.
