Re: LOL @ Redskins
 

[quote=GMScud;759864]I agree to an extent, although I think Shanahan has already made some pretty big mistakes, and I think Haslett is one of them. He walked into a job with some very good personnel on the defensive side, and this unit has spiraled downhill rapidly. If there's one thing Sunday showed us, the turnovers we were forcing were masking some massive deficiencies. We didn't force a turnover and proceeded to set NFL records for futility.

As a personnel guy, Shanahan wiffed big time on Jamaal Brown and Artis Hicks, and I have no idea WTF he's doing with this whole Lichtensteiger thing. Put some pads back on Dockery please.

I'd like to see Haslett get the boot, and we flat out need a better O-line and pass catchers. I could see us winning maybe 2 or 3 more games this year, but I'd almost rather lose out and end up with the higher pick. I just don't see this team turning it around in 2010.[/quote]

I think the jury's still out on Brown, he needs to get healthy which many thought wouldn't fully happen until 2011. Of course, they need to re-sign him first. But Brown's a legit, again when healthy, OT who can play both sides of the line and I like that we went after him

Hicks has been a huge disappointment

Re: LOL @ Redskins
 

Hicks would be better off going back to the bench for depth. There's no way he's starting here next year.

[quote=saden1;759301]What a joke. At home, coming off of a bye week and you can't be bothered to prepare for Vick or show up for the game? Out coached, out played and made to look like little bitches on national TV. Worthless.[/quote]

Fairweather fans are the worthless jokes.

You expected instant success when changing EVERYTHING? Yeah, we took an embarrassing beating, but we're on track to double our win total.

Re: LOL @ Redskins
 

is there anything related to j brown's work ethic? is he a gaither type player that doesnt work/practice/study hard? for some reason i remember some grumbling of that out of new orleans.

yes, hicks has disappointed me as well. i was hoping for a kendall/thomas type pick up where he quietly holds down his spot.

on rabach, im guessin it his ability to read Ds and call blocking assignments out that got him an extension. i dont think mawae would be an upgrade and idr any other real options at center this offseason. to be honest, id rather have a cerebral but physically over matched center considering the revolving door we rightfully anticipated having with both guard spots.

in the eagles game i did see lichensteiger have 2 rushers coming at him, he chipped both guys and mcnabb got the pass off. he didnt really block either one but he was smart enough to recognize he had responsibility on both guys and chipped both instead of picking one to block and letting the other go free. it was encouraging to see

I've been saying bench Hicks and start Dockery in his place, assuming Dockery can play RG.

idk man, times are hard right now. times have been hard for 10 years. snyder and co have been losing alot of next generation fans with years of FO incompetence, a penchant for hyping the "the time is now" mantra with a consistent smattering of truly embarrassing beat downs on nat'l tv.

me and the lady were walking around georgetown monday afternoon before the game and saw 2 people wearing skins stuff. 1 worked at urban outfitters, the other was in his car. thats it. years past this town bled the B n G. i remember and lived the glory days but those days are long gone and lost on the new generation.

losing out on the next generation of should-be skins fans is going to hurt snyder, it already has.

Changing systems doesn't mean looking like complete shit against quality opponents.

This was the best part of Monday Night's game:

Re: LOL @ Redskins
 

[quote=Mattyk;759846]With all the change we've had under Snyder, I really can't believe some are advocating for even more change. Can we just get something in place and let it ride for a few years? The constant change is what our main problem has been. Change at QB, change with the coaches, front office, etc.

Amazing that some don't see that, really amazing.[/quote]


FINE.... KEEP SHANAHAN BUT GUT THIS TEAM. I've had enough of..Cooley, Moss, Haynesworth, Carter, Hicks, Brown, McNabb, Kemo, Daniels, Rabach, Fletcher, Portis, Sellers, Rogers, Hall, Moore, Hicks, Heyer, Goldston...I'm probably missing some more. What have we won with these guys? NOTHING!

[quote=longtimefan;759841]is that you chad?[/quote]

no. But he got me fired up!!!!!!!

Re: LOL @ Redskins
 

[quote=DynamiteRave;759851]Seriously... Weren't people demanding we "blow it up" about 2 years ago when everyone was calling for Gibbs head because after 2 years we didn't make the playoffs? Then we brought in Zorn and practically a whole new coaching staff.. Then this year we cleaned FO house and got rid of Zorn, Vinny and brought in ANOTHER FO/coaching staff? A QB, some RBs (although the 2 well known names didn't make the team), 1 good o-line men and a couple of dummies, some d-line fodder and a CB or 2..?

Yeah... I don't think the blow it up approach is working too well. Those people suggesting that have had the Snyder-ray goggles on for far too long.[/quote]

It's still a lot of the same players for the most part. They gotta start cutting dead weight.

I think he basically spoke for every "Longtime suffering Redskins Fan". he's our new spokesperson.

Speak for yourself I think he is douche bag and really doesn't even give two craps about the Skins. I can seriously remember back in the day him on the Junkies and when they talked Redskins or any sports he was mum. He just said all that crap for ratings.

CHAD DUKES IS NOT A SPORTS FAN!
