Still in it: Redskins-Eagles Post Game Thread

[KI Skins Fan]

I'm not ready to give up on Matt Jones. I realize that it may be over for him here but other RB's have fixed their fumbling problems. I'm pretty sure he gets the point about holding onto the ball by now. I hope he gets one more chance to contribute at some point, even if it is next season.

He is an effort guy who can also catch the ball. We all know he is tough to tackle. If he could just learn how to run lower and protect the ball...

There is never a good time to fumble but man it seems like he coughs it up at the worst times. I really could care less if he ever gets another shot. I think between Fat Rob and CT we have 2 of the three. I am hoping that we draft a gem or pick one up in FA to go along with them. Maybe even be thee guy. In that case Jones is done in Washington for sure.

He's on the bench for a good reason but I don't see any downside to bringing him back to training camp next season. If he works his tail off and fixes his fumbling problem, he could help the team. Honestly, I just hate to see a good young man with talent fail.

Before you know it, Kouandjio will be our LG for a long time. Kid had a tough assignment against Logan and Cox and held his own despite some rough moments going against Cox. As for Breeland and Smith, I keep them both. They've shown they can play in the past, you don't get rid of a player cause they've had a subpar season.

We will see with Kujo, would like to see him grab the job over someone else.

Smith has been far worse than subpar, but like I said he stays for sure.

Bree...probably make or break year next year, BUT if McC decides to move on no surprise. Bree has been terrible...burn unit all year. He was god-aweful beginning of the year. We will see, I expected the dude to breakout this year, he was great in preseason.

Breeland made such elementary mistakes against Philly that it was alarming. It was as if he did not understand his assignments at all. You can fix technique but not stupid.
Shame because Breeland was a baller in the making at one point or so it seemed. Code red baller down.

Redskins signed LB Nick Moody.

It's the first time we've heard Moody's name in months after facing a four-game suspension and also dealing with legal issues during the offseason. He also worked out for the Chiefs before ultimately choosing to sign with Washington. Moody spent most of 2015 on the Seahawks' practice squad. The Redskins needed an extra body at linebacker after losing Will Compton to a knee injury in Week 14.

Just curious ... has Breeland played slot? I thought he had but just can't remember.

I wonder how different things would have been if Hall had not gotten hurt?

There is no way Hall can make it through an NFL season at this point. He was going to get hurt. If was a question of when..

[TheMalcolmConnection]

I hate that he got hurt early on, but I thought Blackmon played better at safety than he did. Are you thinking he would have gone back to CB?

[SFREDSKIN]

So bummed Lanier was put on IR to make room for Moody. Injury to shin must have been serious.
