Skins vs. Eagles Post-Game

[tshile]

Troy Vincent, Vice President of Football Operations for the NFL:
"Baker didn’t do anything wrong with that hit.... He didn’t hit him in the head. He didn’t hit him in the neck. We looked at it. I looked at it very closely. He’s not going to be fined for that"

That should put an end to that debate. Baker did nothing wrong.

Wish the league would fine he refs. What a garbage call that was. The flags didn't even come out until the fight broke out. Peters should have been flagged, ejected, and fined - nothing else.

Word. Games are getting a bit painful.

Let's wait for Cousins to win 2 games in a row first. Hold on to RG3 in the meantime. If he switches and he does not win? What you think is gonna happen next?

RG3 is just not gonna get it. He's an athlete trying to play quarterback. That doesn't last. As we see with most athletes trying to play quarterback they usually don't have the mental capacity to last long in the league. Cousins may not be as athletic but he has the intelligence to succeed long term.



and now we wait

Baker wont be suspended.
So then why was he ejected?

He was ejected for the brawl, not the hit.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're saying. Was Baker ejected for how *the Eagles* reacted after the Foles block?

Baker grabbed the face mask of a guy throwing punches at him, but otherwise did nothing wrong.

Ejecting him was a bad decision.

I have to admit, I have been pretty impressed with KC so far. If he can mature in a couple of area's, he will be a....tough out.

Got it! Cousins is smarter than Robert (in your opinion). I think they should have never picked RG3. Shannahan should have just went with the QB he wanted, Grossman. But I will make one prediction. RG3 will be the only QB to lead the Redskins to the playoffs for a long while. Jay Gruden won't see the playoffs without Robert at the helm. It's easy to scheme QBs like Cousins and use athletic defensive players to put him in compromising positions.

Do you think Andy Dalton was more like Griff or KC?

Mike Ditka defends Chris Baker’s hit on Nick Foles - The Washington Post

I think Ditka likes us. First he defends the name, and now this.

Ditka liked us best when he handed us a king's ransom to draft Ricky Williams.
