Re: Redskins vs. Bengals Post Game Reaction
 
Why is it every year Skins fans are told ahead of time that the team won't be a playoff caliber team and then when the season starts and we lose a couple its a surprise, 'fix this, fix that' situation because to them we're supposed to have the 72 Dolphins team.

It might be our 3rd 5 win season in a row (though I still doubt it), but this year was going to be a tough one by any stretch of the imagination, simply due to the nature of the schedules. We know division games are tough, We know AFC North games tend to draw bruises and blood like the old black and blue division of yesteryear, and NFC South as well is a top notch division across the board.

Again, everything sounds like an excuse the day after a loss, but this schedule was known and commented on long before the season even started.

You know what? You may be right. We may win just 5. At the same time, who the f*** knows? You want to believe that. Fine. Bitching here won't fix them. I choose to believe that the offense will score enough to win more than 5 games.

Upset with the product? I get f'ing upset every f'ing time we lose. I bleed burgundy and gold when they lose. I used to come here looking for solace and someone to give me reason to believe that there was some good sh**.

Does our backend defense suck? Yup. Do Polumbus and Black suck? Yup? Of course there are glaring problems. Does it take a rocket scientist to figure them out? No. Are KS and MS going anywhere anytime soon? No.

Does any of that brilliant and depth analysis, half of it down with an "I told you so" attitude, give me any reason to feel better? No.

I'm not drinking kool-aid - I see the flaws. I just have enough in life to bring me down - tell me a reason to have hope.

I come here to cheer the Skins. Suckage or not.

Fair enough. Im not an i told u so fan. I dont need to hear that crap either. We all want to win. I will root for the skins whether we ever win another game or not. However just as the people that ONLY want to bitch piss me off so do the ones who say " thank you sir may i have another". Lol. I understand that moaning isnt going to change things but it is good to vent and sometimes maybe an " i hear u - we looked god awful and we need to change things AGAIN" would be better than acting like it is the "doom - sayers" fault we lost and directing your anger at them instead of the organization.

[quote=jdc65;944450]It's doom and gloom because the team is unnecessarily exposing their future on a gimmick offense that has absolutely no chance for continued success. It's not building towards anything, there's nowhere to go with it. It's worse than play action because it takes too long, it's worse than rolling out because the Qb has to focus on 3 different things while also avoiding the inevitable pounding he will surely receive. Spreading the field is fine, but do it with receivers, formations, and well designed playcalls. Teach the kid something constructive.


There is nothing to setup with it but more option plays and misdirection. The defense could care less about misdirection if they can get a free shot at the Qb. Let em have 10 yards, we'll take out their Qb. It's a 1 time gimmick that only works because no one would expect such foolishness with your star player. Tebow is different, he is expendable plus he is freaking huge to take some punishment. Newton can run the read, but even he gets slammed. He is way bigger than Griffin, and that is already getting old for Carolina.

I can all but guarantee every team in the league will take notice of this, and will be laughing their a$$es off behind closed doors. The Buccaneers will be taking head shots if they try that crap next week. Now he is going to get hit even when he doesn't have the freaking ball. Can we expect the Swinging Gate with Griffin next?

They are supposed to be teaching him how to be an NFL quarterback. Yes, they can use his natural abilities, but his safety is paramount. It should be building blocks, one step leading to another. This is a gimmick and a desperation ploy because the offensive line is a joke, and Kyle has no excuses now for ineptitude. They might have drawn it up at halftime on the chalkboard because they had no answers. They clearly didn't practice it sufficiently because it looked so haphazard.

Why do you think Coughlin was so upset about the kneel down? Because he knows he has to keep his Qb healthy. It's coaching 101.[/quote]

Mechanix544 09-24-2012 12:31 PM

Re: Redskins vs. Bengals Post Game Reaction
 
with this team, its always 2 or 3 years away. Here we are, 3 years after Shanahan, and we, again, are two years away, because what? Because we have a flippin stud of a quarterback that happens to be a rookie,so that gives them a pass for the next two years to lean on for being absolutely putrid on defense, and absolutely mediocre in every other aspect of the game that does not include RG3's brilliance? I'm just sick and tired of the excuses. The Lions went 0-16, 2-14, then two years later, they are in the playoffs. 49ers go 5-11, then the next year they are 13-3, and the next they are considered to be the best team in the league.

Point is, teams turn it around in a much shorter span than we do. Dolphins go 1-15. Next year they are 11-5 and win the division over the patriots. Saints go 3-13, next year they are 11-5 and win their division. Bengals go 4-12, and then win the division the next year over the AFC championship team Ravens with an 11-5 record. Falcons go from 4-12 to 11-5 in one season. When is it going to be that we just field a team that goes out, and plays the other team, and WINS? Its a football game. Every other team has mediocre talent, but the coaches overcome that, do their job, and find ways to compete. But with us, we always have to temper our expectations. Our situation is always SO much worse than any other of the 32 squads, that we need to chill out and remember, its gonna take 4 years to undo the damage. Its borderline ridiculous, and the fans of the Redskins deserve way better leadership than what has been presented the last 20 years.

Oh well, I guess there is always next year. Oh wait, next year and the year after that is a rebuilding year. I guess there is always 4 years from now. I'll have my fingers crossed.

PS - sorry for the rant

Re: Redskins vs. Bengals Post Game Reaction
 
Also, the reason we are in the games that we have competed in, in my opinion, is not a product of the playcalling, scheme or decisions made by the staff. Its all directly attributed to RG3's will, and by his performance alone. IMO, he is performing in the face of bad personnel, bad playcalls and just bad decision making, both on offense and defense.

I don't know how I feel about having Mike S. groom this young man into an NFL qb. It seems that Mike S isn't really doing him any favors with the playcalling and protections being called. If he is doing this good with the deck stacked against him, imagine if he didn't have those obstacles.

Re: Redskins vs. Bengals Post Game Reaction
 
It's game 3 and people are already on the "I guess there's next year" line. Can we at least make through half the season before we entirely give up on this one?

@ punch: Look, I am as tired as the next fan of hearing "Next year." When has Mike had his shot? To me, this is the year he needs to make some wins and, quite frankly, I haven't given up on that happening. Minnesota just beat SF. Oakland beat Pitt. Who the F' knows how the rest of [I]this[/I] season is going to play out.

People need to vent, I get that. A lot of this thread, however, is not venting about a loss but about how much smarter posters are than the coaches, players and FO and how the rest of us are too dumb to see the brilliance of their negativity.

MS and KS are here for two more years whether we like it or not. If you don't like it, feel free to hire sign trucks to let your feelings known.

Okay, back to your regularly scheduling torching of MS, KS, Haslett and all things not RGIII. Enjoy your wallow.

I think any reasonable assesment leads to the conclusion RG3's success is in spite of the regime, not because of it. Given the first three games you can say with near certainty every season Robert spends under this regime will take a year off the backend of his career.

hahahah - nice. i was saying the same thing on the way home last nite from the stadium to a friend and my brother - i was like - hey look around every team has shown weakness this year except houston and the cards, and houston always suffers injuries to the big three and the cards - well good for them. they just looked at me in the back seat like "dude we suck - get over it" - so believe me im not negative (really), and i certainly dont think i know better about football than most posters on this board let alone the shanahans or ANYONE employed by the nfl. My honest opinion on winning more than 6 games this year has DRASTICALLY changed since week one - lets just say I am not so sure we even win 6 at this point...........at all. But I hope to hell that this team bounces back and the football gods smile on us and them and something wonderful happens.

On paper, you can look at a lot of the teams we play and say, "Wow, we MIGHT be able to beat the Browns." Kind of like what JoeRedskin said, we can beat anyone on any given day. I mean who would have expected the Vikings to win or the Cardinals to POUND Philly? I sure as hell didn't.

Now, I think the Skins are due to win one this weekend, and maybe shock us with some NFCE wins as well.

What you're suggesting is to put Robert in a pro style offense under center (In Baylor he took [I]ZERO[/I] snaps under center) and magically all those hits he's taking will go away. Did you watch the Rex and Beck take a pounding last year?
How you came to the conclusion that Kyle showed "ineptitude" is beyond me since you failed to explain that. In one sentence you call the offensive line a joke, and immediately take a shot at Kyle on the next one for running an offense to minimize it's exposure. :confused:
Kyle, in my opinion, is doing a masterful job helping Robert transition from his Baylor offense into a pro style offense. Letting him have some time under center while still running what he feels comfortable with to keep the points coming on the board.
Kyle has never been, is, or will be the problem. We've scored 30 points the last 3 games and are the 2nd ranked offense in the entire league for gods sake! If you think Kyle is the issue you are completely way off base.

I can all but guarantee every team in the league will take notice of this, and will be laughing their a$$es off behind closed doors. The Buccaneers will be taking head shots if they try that crap next week. Now he is going to get hit even when he doesn't have the freaking ball. Can we expect the Swinging Gate with Griffin next?

Why do you think Coughlin was so upset about the kneel down? Because he knows he has to keep his Qb healthy. It's coaching 101.

Honestly, I think Gerald McCoy might kill RGIII. He's a very good young player, but he looks like a sack of sticks (wearing dreads).

Let's see if you still feel like that next week after he drops 30 on your ass...

Did Mcoy finally live up to his potential yesterday? Josh Freeman couldnt sniff Griffs jock. Im going back to the positive thread. Its way gooder over there.

You should have said 50. Apparently 30 isnt good enough.

[quote=punch it in;944677]maybe i just believe whatever the hell i read - but the original comment had me depressed and you have just lifted my spirits! - lol[/quote]

I'm glad! I'll never understand how anyone can follow this team while maintaining such a negative outlook that it becomes a chore to watch them. What fun is that?
I do, however, understand the frustration. But if you're going to bash someone, back it up with something. Otherwise it's just bashing for the sake of bashing.

Touche.

We're expecting Freeman to finally put it together this week and have a great game through the air. This is the same thing we say after every game.

With Orakpo out, who does your pass rushing? I wonder if Shenanigans will send all 7 DBs at me. I wonder if he'll cry when they still don't get to Josh.

I know I'll cry when Josh throws an incompletion despite all that.
