The Washington Redskins haven't exactly had the rosiest of seasons.

First-year head coach Jay Gruden has looked overmatched at times, as the Redskins have bumbled along. Quarterback Robert Griffin III missed significant time early in the season with a dislocated ankle before being benched for poor play shortly after his return. As a result, both men have been on the hot seat and their futures in D.C. have remained unclear.

But last night's 27-24 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles could have possibly saved both of their jobs.

"Jay Gruden and Robert Griffin III are expected to return next season," wrote Jason Reid of the Washington Post. "...It appears Gruden and Griffin will be linked longer. To make the best of it, the head coach and quarterback should continue along the path they walked Saturday. As long as Snyder wants them both, it seems that's the only way to go."

The Redskins, 4-11, still have a long way to go. While Griffin played a solid game yesterday, he still gets happy feet in the pocket sometimes and has trouble reading defenses. However, it appears as if he'll have more time to improve on those weaknesses with Gruden's coaching.

This may not be welcome news to some Redskins fans, but a bit of stability wouldn't hurt for a change. Washington, after all, has had more turnover, dysfunction and change under owner Dan Snyder than almost any other team in the league.
