Ill take it a step further and say RR might be part of the problem. Sorry to go against the grain.

Hot take: RR keeps JDR for most of the season. He needs a scapegoat in case defense doesn't improve after JDR shit canning

I absolutely believe this, I do not think there will be any coaches fired during the season

Tuner after the colts game will get fired.
Snyder wants to DP the Turner family

So far, it's easy to say that bringing WJ3 here, especially for what he is being paid, was a Baaaad move.

Please highlight the personnel moves they've made have been good moves...they're not many.

JDM was a good signing, he's a good RB. Logan Thomas as well, but yeah there isn't many lol. Wentz so far looks like a good move but we'll see what he does Sunday

There's been plenty of good, impactful players brought in/drafted. Not every move pans out the way you hope, and that goes for every team.

Easy to "highlight" the bad ones isn't it...?

Take a look around, there's plenty of good talent on this team. They didn't fall from the sky.

True, but it is also the moves they haven't made or positions they didn't draft well. Most here have been screaming for a bona fide MLB and additional depth at LB, it is easy to see the value of that when you look at the failures of our D. We all love Holcombs infectious personality I am sure, but I don't think anyone here thinks he is more than a decent starting LB, and certainly not a MLB

Last year the CB room looked OK but this year, even discounting the WJ3 issue, the depth here is non existant.

I am sure someone would mention letting Settle leave for peanuts then using a valuable 2nd pick on his replacement, especially as we wont have one in next years draft

Having 6 great young tight ends is not going to prevent the other team from scoring

@JohnKeim:

Looking at last year's second game vs. the Eagles: Washington rushed with four on 15 of 27 pass attempts. Hurts was 11-15, 125 yards on those plays. Considered pressured on 4 rushes.

When Washington rushed 5+, Hurts was 5-10, 77 yards, 1 sack. Considered pressured on 7 rushes.

I say it is official. We are rushing 4 all game.

Do you think JDR cares for stats like this? Or does he just watch the film and give it the ol' eyeball test?

Oh I imagine he uses a magic 8 ball and an ouija board for personnel match ups

Hopefully Sweat and the other edge guy can stay outside the T, stay responsible for the edge and not get carried away with trying inside moves.

Hopefully Allen/Payne can create pressure up the middle and speed jalen's clock up and make him uncomfortable

---

Watched the 1st haf highlights linked above .. every single D formation shown has WJ3 off the LOS by a lot (excluding goalline). 2 times he lines up on LOS he backpedals pre snap.

Offensive coord knowing exactly what you are going to do with your outside corner .. a big problem.

Same exact fucking set up for WJ3 every fucking snap.

JDR needs to change it up on looks.
