Sorry, RG3 getting benched is NOT going to happen. He is not the glaring problem with this team. The secondary first, turnovers and penalties second, and the protection third. Those are the main problems with this squad.

Bye Haslett

I can't believe i'm saying this but does someone have where that ball comes loose on the touchdown

Re: Lions vs Skins Game Day Thread
 

I'm not for benching rg3 as long as we can agree he was horrible today

He wasn't bad until he f'ed up that slide.

RG3's dad had a hell of a day

[quote=DynamiteRave;1027779]I completely agree with you about the turning things around.

But there's so much wrong with this team on both sides of the ball, I'm just curious if there really [I]IS[/I] any point in time where you wonder if you need to pull RG3.

Personally, I've said that we ride him out until we're out of playoff contention. But I'm wondering if anyone feels that you either let him play the whole season or keep him on a short leash?[/quote]

I think we might as well go with status-quo, I think it probably ends up hurting his confidence even more by sitting him than him being out there and losing - and lets face it - the dude can definitely use the practice. What starting NFL QB doesn't know how to slide properly coming off a season where it got him a concussion? It's just unbelievable that he would make that mistake, that's not even something you can attribute to rust, it's just a incredibly stupid play fueled by what I can only believe is nervousness.

Agreed, but we have a more than capable backup qb that we want to showcase to the league. There are no fixing those other problems this year.
Edit: we should be able to fix penalties n turnovers

He was not horrible. You're going a little too far with your opinion.

No.. its called watching our QB come back in to the feel. Same thing that has happened to most teams.

Giants lost 38-0. I guess they should pull Eli and fire their whole staff. Lol

There are a lot of games left guys

[quote=SBXVII;1027763]No, No, No.

This team does not look anything like the team from last year. I'm not talking about timing, or injuries, I'm talking blocking scheme (we are getting blown up off the OL), how they hand the ball to the RB, to WR's not getting open or RG3 just not looking down field for open WR's. The RB doesn't seem to have any lanes to cut back into or any holes to run through. RG3 over throwing WR's, etc. etc.

I won't even discuss the Defense. They are bad across the board and not getting any better.[/quote]

Dude, too many of us in here almost thought of RG III as our savior. Shoot you had a man crush thread in here about the guy not so long ago. This guy will not pan out because his supporting cast is deficient, but he still was over hyped beyond belief. This guy is going to enter his contract year with probably a .500 record or less. JC was less than .500, while Gus hovered around .500. Are you going to pay the guy up the wazoo to renew? You needed DBs and O linemen, before the stud QB, now the stud QB isn't going to win you games, so what is the point of having a stud QB? Build from the lines outward. Next draft should be nothing more than defensive players and maybe one or two O linemen. It is obvious that one man isn't going to get the Skins back to the glory days. Defense wins titles, and our D sucks, and personally has to be rebuilt. If we go say 0-6 0-7 if we do lose in Oakland I would start Cousins just to see what he can do, and at the very least showcase him for a trade for draft picks if he does well, or maybe keep him. I am foreseeing a total overhaul on both sides of the ball in the offseason, and if that happens RG III might not be the man anymore.

Re: Lions vs Skins Game Day Thread
 

I get a big kick out of all the armchair quarterbacking when we lose.

Megatron's playing D? They must be nervous

How did we so badly botch bringing RG3 back?

Were we that afraid to start Cousins?

Showcase? Do you think it's possible he may be the starter here one day?

Horrible loss. No excuses

**** you Jim Haslett **** you and I don't care about your editing filters here this guy has been dragging us down since he stepped in redskins park. HOW has he kept his job

Re: Lions vs Skins Game Day Thread
 

I think the sad part is that we've actually improved from the last two games.

Re: Lions vs Skins Game Day Thread
 

First team in history to LOSE to detroit at HOME all these terrible 6-10 years WE STILL COULD BEAT THEM AT HOME

Congratulations, 2013 Redskins! You're ****ing dreadful.

Are You kidding me? KC has value now.. What happens if he lays an egg and people see It? Then we have nothing.

A lot of football left. Its not like the NFC east is pulling away

RG3's team. If he wants to come back, he's coming back. I don't think KC had a snowball's chance in hell of starting.

Yeah he give the assist to Kyle. Golden boy looking really bad this year. Rg3 checked it down a lot. He made a lot of bad decisions and poor throws. Fumbled snaps

Hes delusional.. He thinks a guy who isnt half the QB that RG3 is going to fix the rookies in the secondary and the penalties.

Re: Lions vs Skins Game Day Thread
 

[quote=over the mountain;1027819]We are getting closer to a win my friends[/quote]

Not with out garbage secondary and garbage O-line.

With our luck, I bet the Jags could beat us this year.

... Okay maybe we're not that bad.

0-4 going into the bye. No way were winning on the road unless its the jags. Coming out of the bye our schedule is brutal minus two games against the giants. 4-12 is very very very realistic. If we finish with six or fewer in the w column major changes must be made.
