You can not defend Grossman in any way. He better not be the starter next week.

Re: The Gameday Thread: Philly at Washington

Yes, it's a loss but...


Everyone is overreacting in my opinion. This team is still 3-2 and hopefully with more reps Beck can do a better job. Honestly, I don't see why he can't at this stage of the game.

We held a very, very explosive Eagles team to two touchdowns on a day when they're backs were up against the wall. Bottom line, Grossman doesn't come up shit the bed, it's completely different score. No question in my mind.

I'm just personally relieved that Shanny will put the Grossman era behind sooner rather than later.

Re: The Gameday Thread: Philly at Washington

the way we responded in 2nd half made me proud of Skins' ... we have heart .. Defense is only getting better .. if bullshit call of roughin passer wasn't called in first half game would have been totally different IMO .. Rex did shit the bed ... cost us a chance 2 destroy Iggles season .. Beck looked "elusive" .. 3-2 .. tough game 4 sure ..... regroup we had a wack game running and 4 BAD picks yet still had a chance 2 tie game if D wasn't completely gassed ... hopefully Pats beat Cowboys

How many years have we been "building" this team? I'm waiting for this team to finally be built. I'm only 24, I wanna see a Skins super bowl before I die, damnit. At this rate I'll be waiting into my 30's.

A playoff appearance would be nicer. A solid one, not a, "we made it in by the skin of our teeth and know we shouldn't be here" kind of appearance. Ideally, I'd just like to see a solid team. Of course teams have days where they're just off. But with the Skins its either a good offensive team and a bad defensive team, a good defensive team and a bad offensive team, or just an all around bad team.

I have a bad memory to begin with, but I don't know when the last year was where the Skins had a fully rounded team where we were actually good, but just didn't have the gas to make it to the playoffs/not lose in the 1st round of the playoffs (or wildcard)

THIS time...I really believe them. For the most part I like what they are doing. Overall the D played solid. Got nicked in the first, but stonewalled them in the second. Get a QB.......who knows.
AND if we had a QB which we no doubt will add in the off-season (starting or no), this game would have been radically different.
You'll be happy by your 25th Birthday!

Haha I love our rational fanbase. Seriously going to blame the D for this one? Run D could've been a bit better but keeping the eagles to 20 is a big deal. They score alotta points.

QB, OLs, OC, WRs and RBs get blame before the D.

Losing key O-lineman hurt. The running game seemed to never recover from that. We were getting a few yards here and there and as soon as Lich and T.Williams went down, that was the end of the run. Sucks. The Skins can't win without a running game.
