Looking ahead, it's only going to get worse

I just feel with our current OL situation, we're going to be so overmatched it's going to be a joke.

Well if it is it won't be a funny one.

Yes, I get that same feeling. We've played the worst schedule by far of any NFL team and we can't score points.

We've got a good enough defense, but playing the likes of Philly, NY, Dal and the other teams, we've got to put points on the board. Our offensive line is so bad right now, it might be pretty tough.

Very, very discouraged right now.

You're right, but at the same time, I think the div. games will be close & we might pull out a couple.

Glad you have some optimism left. Mine got sucked out of me watching Samuels go down and seeing Mike Williams on the field.

We have no chance of winning more than 5 or 6 games with this OL. The sad part is that our OL problems were completely foreseeable. We fans have been crying for a re-build of the OL for years!

How many of us truly believed, based on their injury history, that Randy Thomas and Chris Samuels would make it through a 16-game schedule? I know I didn't. The FO had to know that the odds of both of these key players going down to injury was very high, yet this very real possibility was not addressed in the off-season through trade, FA, or the draft.

Sure, fire Zorn. He's truly clueless. I'll grant that. But as long as this pathetically inept FO tandem of Ceratto and Snyder continue to make poor player personnel decisions, we have no chance of becoming an NFL power.

And yes, it will get worse this season - much worse. Heaven forbid that we lose to KC on Sunday! That could send us into a free-fall.

Traditionally we have always played well against the better teams. Going foreward, we can only hope tradition continues to hold true. I agree though our O-line situation does not enhance any chances we may have.

Maybe I'm over-reacting, but I feel that this is by far going to be the worst offensive line in football without Chris Samuels. Those of you who want to see Todd Collins are probaboly going to get their wish, because this is going to be like Ramsey in 2003 for Campbell... he's gonna get freaking killed back there if Samuels is out for any significant amount of time...

Outside of Kansas City and Oakland.. there is not a single game I expect the Redskins to win.

We'll find a way to squeak one out against a team we shouldnt beat (I'm actually thinking Dallas at home because I think they're gonna wind up pretty bad too).. maybe another one.. I'm thinking 5-11 or 6-10. If Samuels is back, then I might revise that to 7-9... but I have a bad feeling he might be out for a long time.

Why the F are we not looking at Levi Jones?! I don't care what his background was, he was at least competent for the Bengals and could give us SOME hope for the season. As things stand, unless Samuels comes back, we're absolutely done.

I think he's damaged goods, bad knees if I recall correctly.

Maybe so, but no possible way it's worse than we have now.

If that's the case bring back Kendall.

I'm with you on that too. I don't care, bad knees or not, I just want to watch some competitive games this season.
