Re: Better days ahead. (Off season part 1 thread)

Culliver has been banged up all year and we have money committed to him so he is going to start. I would prefer to see another corner added and move Breeland to the slot.


We need to get something out of punt returns. Crowder isn't cutting it. I feel like he is Randel El back there.

Re: Better days ahead. (Off season part 1 thread)

I really like the foundation we have here now with SM at GM. I think we need to add another piece on the O-line, then stock up on DBs. If Hatcher retires, then definitely a playmaking D-lineman. Work your magic Scott. High hopes for next year. At the very least we should push for another division title

Agreed. Better days? Yeah -- here's why: Scot McCloughan Greets Players As They Leave Field

Love this guy.

That was awesome to see. i really like how pissed off our players looked after the loss. Let's hope they carry that feeling on into the next season.

RGIII will flourish in the right system. Most players who we think suck just aren't playing in a system that compliments their strengths. That being said Cousins is the QB for next couple of years at least....

RGIII won't flourish until he masters the basics of playing from the pocket.

Re: Better days ahead. (Off season part 1 thread)

Matching this year's record is going to be tough next year. We play lots of really good teams outside the division.

As yesterday's game showed, we have lots of holes - team speed on D, interior OL, RB, blocking TE. We need to beat good teams and that will be tough for this team. We are heading in the right direction though. We have a solid QB going forward and the makings of a good line - still a couple pieces short.

I would not be surprised if we go 8-8 next year but be a better team than this year.

This.

Expectations next year for record - somewhere between 7-9 and 9-7. However, I do expect us to be more competitive against the better teams in the league.

We still need a lot of work on the roster. Speed on defense and depth across the board.

That being said, I don't think it is far fetched to think in two years we could be a consistent 10 win team. Great year. Great nucleus. Great foundation.

Many Redskins fans have long since turned on Griffin.

He did. But he can't win with some fans no matter what he does. He deserves a fresh start somewhere else.

Just don't understand why he couldn't say a few simple things to the media..."really looking forward to a new chapter in my career." Instead he puts this stuff up from the freakin' bible?? And tapes it to his locker? I wonder how long he had that planned..
