[quote=SirLK26;1089815]Like jamf said, Morris isn't a back you give the ball to 13 times a game. You have to pound the defense with him all game long, and you have to keep feeding him even when he's not getting 4-5 yards per carry. He'll wear the defense out and keep the chains moving, but only if you plan on sticking with him to the end. Gruden is too impatient. He sees Morris only getting 1-2 yards per carry early in the game, so he abandons him right away for the faster and more versatile Helu. Helu will get you those big plays every now and again, but Morris is much, much more effective if used correctly.

But I'm beginning to think Morris will never be the same with Gruden. Shanahan leaves, and suddenly Morris is "too slow", the line can't open holes, the running game gets abandoned, etc. Morris has the talent, but unless Gruden suddenly has an epiphany of sorts, he may never be used correctly. The hope I hang onto is that Griffin's presence really does help open up the running game.[/quote]

It's just like Joe Gibbs did when he first came to Washington. The difference is that Gibbs learned to use Riggins after five games. Also, JKK was so pissed off about being 0-5 that he was threatening to fire Gibbs if things didn't turn around immediately.

Snyder should tell Allen to stay out of Gruden's way and then tell Gruden to do whatever he needs to do to turn things around but he'd better start winning some games soon, or else.

Aye, all hail TDJ.

LMAO. I can't believe someone actually took that picture.

[quote=Lotus;1089758]I figured you'd be psyched to see him play. Maybe Locker will heal slowly.[/quote]

Indeed. Originally I had Tanya Harding on standby but given Locker's injury history I figured a half decent oscillating fan would be more than enough.

I expect Cousins will be intercepted 3-7 times, toss in another 1-3 Fumbles during the game by various players and maybe some atrocious plays by our special teams

Titans 27
Redskins 14

[QUOTE=KI Skins Fan;1089817]You are kidding yourself. We've lost 13 of the last 14 games we've played. Do you know what that makes us? [B]Losers![/B] We also have a choking dog playing QB right now.



Please try to come up with a better reason why we should be expected to beat any team at this point.

I am in no way saying we are good. Im simply saying we are better than the jags and titans. Does the fact that we just beat the jags 41-10 and completely dominated in every aspect back that up. The titans pulled a win outta their asses against the jags. I still say we will beat them handily from start to finish. I will also say that i could care less that we are better than either of them (or should i say less of a loser).

And penalties! Don't forget about the penalties. Oh! and don't forgot about dropped passes on third down and abandoning the running game and poor play-calling and the revolving door at RT and gold pants. When it comes to sucking, we are a complete team.

This game figures to be so bad that the announcers will be Gilbert Gottfried and a mime. Sideline reporter: Courtney Love.

Wow, we have lost 13 of the last 14? Starting last season, which wasnt all Shannys fault (why cant griffin run the system that got him 2012 ROY?), till now, this franchise really is a dumpster fire. Thanks, Snyder!

Is it a bannable offense to make a prediction?

Just call me another really disappointed and downtrodden fan

Sadly the Skins can make a bad team look like Super Bowl contenders

Re: Titans vs. Skins Pregame Thread
 

So much doom and gloom on this board. You'd think we were 1-5.

Defense gets the turnovers for which it is overdue, Skins win 27-17.
