[skinsfaninok]

Yeah man we all are just tired of not having a good team , it's getting really old

[tc2deuce]

Shanny has lost the team so he is fired plane and simple and for the record I want everybody on line gone minus Trent

Great strategic move by RG3 to avoid taking the sack by nonchalantly lobbing a game-ending interception instead.

really disappointed in rg3 for that. as a qb you have to know time, down and distance. he had plenty of time on the clock, had to know its was 3rd not 4th down and they only needed 2-3 yards for a first (so throwing it away wasnt the end of the world).

i honestly think rg3 was physically and mentally tired after a long game and a long drive and just chucked it up there. i think he kinda gave up with a down to go. really really disappointed in him. once rg3 quits, this team is truly done. he didnt quit today but i sensed he was close to throwing his hands up in the 3rd quarter. glad he didnt.

sidenote - rg3 has been bailed out multiple times by our wide receivers on long balls he puts up there as 50-50s. hes been more lucky than good on longballs this year imo. the robinson one is just another to add to the stack of luck on his part.

I quit watching early in 2nd qtr,couldnt take it anymore.That throw griffin made in the first qtr to a WIDE OPEN tight end was not even close,Tim Tebow could have completed that pass,Griffin is just not right.
Turned game back on just in time to see Robinson make td catch,which I think was more great adjustment by him more than a good pass.
This team is just bad the whole way around with a few exceptions,Garcon and Morris being excluded

1. RG3was not very good most of the day. His pocket presence is terrible, learn how to climb the damn pocket instaed of doing a back peddle. Also missed easy routine throws. Foles was the better QB. He regressed today.

2. Kyle don't let the door hit you in the back. 2 man routes don't work this year. Adjust your damn gameplan. And when you have 2nd and 5 near the goalline when Morris is running the ball...don't take him off the field you idiot! You've done that two weeks in a row. Piss poor coaching there. Keep running the ball! ...or leave him on the field so the threat is there.

3. For all you stat experts, we gained 430 yards! Woo hoo! Hidden in that is the offense scored 3 points in 4 quarters, going back to Minnesota. That's great offense though!

4. What is wrong w/ putting Santana back to field punts? Are you coaches so fucking stupid that you put a practice squad rookie back there over Moss when your season is on the line? Again, horseshit coaching!

5. Can the coaches on defense teach the defense how to tackle? Wrap up and tackle? This has been going on all year! Football 101.

6. Whoever the new coach is, I hope he comes in here and makes everyone ( outside of Morris, Garcon and Williams) earn their damn jobs. See who wants today football.

The commentators did a very good job explaining the impact of the cap penalty. We all know it hurt our FA opportunities a ton, but I'm not sure a lot of football fans get it. But the other side of the coin, also said during the game, is we didn't help ourselves by trading so many draft picks. The RG trade may not have been the right move given our circumstances, but I still say there's solid talent here on both sides of the ball, though very limited depth at too many positions.

But all the circumstances don't account for Mike and co fielding an unprepared, undisciplined and uncompetitive team. He's gotta go. Personally I would send him packing now and give the reigns to Raheem, just as a matter of principle.

He pointed several drafted players though. Those players out played our guys, particularly Foles. He outplayed our QB. End of discussion.

Look, I know the cap has hurt us some but we have several free agents on the team that aren't any good. Morgan didn't even dress! That laughable to me. After signing Garçon, how about looking for a linemen to help pass protect? I blame the people who pick the players more than the cap hit. That falls on the head man.

I would be careful of firing Mike mid season. I think Dan has finally showed patience with a head coach and it could send a bad message to potential candidates in the future if he does pull the plug before the end of the season. I understand frustration but a HC change isn't going to turn a season around. The next question I have is who is going to want to HC without the 1st rounder in the draft? I don't know if it will make a difference.

If Raheem Morris is a candidate for HC next season, it makes sense to see what he can do rest of this season with control. But the bigger issue really is the trifecta of suck that is Mike, Kyle and Haslett. The team is already in such a malaise under this trash leadership, you don't want it become so imbedded in the team culture that it carries over to the next season.

Secondly, the Shanahans have shown almost total disregard for the franchise QB they mortgaged OUR future to get. Shanny/knee gate ended last season. How reckless will Mike and his goofy kiddo be trying to salvage their failed project here?? In short, trusting these fucks through the remainder of the season should qualify as criminal negligence on Dan and Bruce.

If Raheem Morris is going to be the head coach regardless fine then go for it, but don't think for once if shit hits the fan next year that he has any confidence in that his position is secure. Shanny traded picks that would only be given away during his tenure, hardly what I would call the future. If you had a crystal ball and could garuntee those picks would be hits instead of misses I would give that to you too, otherwise it is pure speculation and ifs and buts. I do agree that there was recklessness last year on the coaching staffs handling and I think so this year as well. What I am saying is if you want to get the best coach for the team you are not going to fire someone in the middle of the season if you don't think it will bring an improvement. These coaches are a fraternity, they share notes and talk about how they are treated.

[HailGreen28]

I know a lot of people are saying Shanny should be either cut now or extended.

I say keep him next season. What others call "lame duck" I call "contract year".

Mike's done a lot of good on O. Found good replacements for Chris Samuels, Clinton Portis, and Chris Cooley. Upgraded the QB, WR, and OL.

Defense and special teams are a dumpster fire. I feel so foolish now having argued when Shanny came on board that the 3-4 would be good for us. Not saying a 3-4 isn't as good as a 4-3, but it hasn't worked for us so far. And let Haslett walk this offseason please.

Won't be sad to see Shanny go if we don't make the playoffs next season (or miraculous run this season). I think Kyle's been good, RG3 just wasn't elite like he's capable of playing. Though I really wanna know what the relationship between he and each Shanahan really is.

Today was a disaster. Everybody at fault (except TW, Alfmo, Garcon, our DL, and a few others I missed. I only blame RG3 too because I saw him play much better last season.). If this keeps up, can every coach, but I'm inclined to think just burn this game tape and move on.

[tmandoug1]

Hate to be the one to say it but Iwould like to see Cousins play, RG (-3) is playing like he could give a shit, and needs a wake up call. Never was a big fan of the running qb bs.

[rome108]

Don't know how u lose to the same college coach twice? But I guess we just did. joke of a franchise, it's gettin old already
