Case Keenum vs. Colt McCoy

We already know that Dwayne Haskins is here to stay and he is the future at quarterback.  The real battle at quarterback is Case Keenum and Colt McCoy.  Recent success favors Keenum.  Knowledge of the offensive system favors McCoy.  Injury history favors Keenum.  Rapport with current receivers favors McCoy.  The Redskins could keep three quarterbacks on the roster, but if the trends continue from recent seasons, only two will be retained, and that means Keenum or McCoy will be cut or traded.  This battle looms the largest in training camp and the preseason.
