Now it's all over YouTube, Twitter etc in a second and some FO tool is asking them to tone it down for the sake of the brand.

Just once a season I'd like to hear a foaming-at-the-mouth rant from a player who genuinely hates the Cowboys/Eagles/Giants talking about what they're going to do. Backing it up would be nice too.

What the D says? Just air. Pay no mind, move along.

You think calling the opposing qb a "lower level" or not a "quality qb" is "PC". That is dismissive to the point of ridiculousness. And no one on our defense especially should be looking at any qb as other than the best qb in the whole frikkin world, because that's what they have been making them look like so far this year.

It's weak sauce.

"He's not a quality QB....." That's a dull slight.

How about "Draft a QB like him, you get a free bowl of soup", a la AL Czervik*. Come on NFL, let us have our characters back!

Why do these guys say crap that's going to fire up the other team? Seriously, the Gibbs approach was best. ("Boy, they're sure a good team. I don't know how we will compete. We will just do our best" Final score: Skins 42, Opponent 13). If I were Shanahan, I would tell the players to shut the hell up until they dominate an opponent.

Time to let play speak for itself (hopefully, in a good way).

That always gives the team an out. "We said he was good and on the day the better team won....." Yawn.

No, let's have some smack talk then they have to back it up by playing or at least trying.

LMAO!!! So true! So true!

I feel sorry for younger Redskins fans who didn't see that happen live, back in the 80's with Gibbs' first run here.

I agree C. Stop talking and start playing. Rookie QB's have been kicking our ass. They should look at him like Peyton Manning because that's how our defense usually makes them look.
