Likely, keeping Hocker over Forbath would have fixed one problem but created another.
That missed 33 yarder against Philly made me put him in the fu*k him group. He is gonna have to earn his way out of that, like I said I would want Matt Prater over him.

Shameless self-promotion. It is what it is.

Re: The Special Teams Problem

I think we should rename this thread "The Team Problem." Solution A: Burn it down. Alternative, less criminal solution B: DS sells the team, new owner gives team a new name, new colors, new coaches, new FO, new everything. Only then can we rid the team of this curse.

I am starting to think this is a great idea.

Heather O'rourke would tell you (if she could) don't mess with Indians.

Snyder is not going to sell the team any time soon.

His ownership has sucked and many of us wish he would sell the team... but its never going to happen.

Don't think I could ever do that but I can't shake this feeling we're going to be the NFC's version of the Browns for the next few decades.

What's funny is that we fans delude ourselves, as does the FO, that the Redskins are relevant. But for the glimmer of hope from the 1st place finish that RG3 helped deliver his rookie year, 2014 will be the 6th last place finish for the Redskins in the last 7 years. The Redskins are tied for the worst record in the NFL since the playoff loss to Seattle, going 4-17 since. That is the stuff of bottom feeders. We may not be the Raiders, but we are among that echelon of teams. Facts are facts.
