Rams at Redskins pregame thread

We're going to have a real tough time blocking their line. Williams is going to come off the bus blitzing.

Rams 24
Skins 13

This game is impossible to predict. Rams defense will be brutal no matter what, but that offense is hot/cold I think.

Just more concerned how we look. Need to come out sharp, well prepared and highly motivated. That's enough for me, win or lose.

cooley said colt did a really good job of recognizing and beating the blitz last week and double g may hold back some. he sd if RG3 was in there, double g would be licking his chops coming w every exotic blitz possible.

wow!
Funny how he was the future replacement for Moss a few years ago and now can't get on the field ahead of Grant or Moss.

Man, if he and Niles Paul could run routes and catch as well as they could run fast, we would have had a great WR corps even without Garcon and Jackson.

Some other moves made as well. Minnifield was placed on IR, with Miller and Kenny Okoro being brought up from the practice squad.

Wow. There's some perspective for me today.
I too can't get on board anymore, it's just too hard to watch.

After seeing the great things my grandfather did here in the 80's-90's with Gibbs and the old timers turn into THIS!? It's almost personal.

Then....why in the world would you want to participate on a Skins board?

It's a curse, or possible addiction at this point, I just can't leave it. Also Ive never been a quitter and can't start quitting now.

I hear you.....

The Rams are a good contrast with the Skins on how to build a team properly through the draft, building from the inside-out. Their D-line are all 1st round picks, and they may be just a QB away from being a perenial playoff team. They were very unlucky with Sam Bradford's knee injuries, otherwise, they might be winning the NFC West this year.

I honestly think first round picks aren't the way to build a team...it is the later rounds.

I also think they are the most overrated part of building a team. Trade them all for 2s,3s and 4s.....it is a crap shoot anyway so the more we bring in the better chance we have of finding the ones that are tough enough and willing to buy in.

from 1970 - 1990 the redskins used only 3 first round picks

now they were good ones (Monk, Green and May), but the team was built on lower picks, and UFAs.

It was the role players that made those teams - Wonsley, Cronan, Orr, and Warren...etc

again, across the golden age of our franchise ... 3 first round picks.

I would also say that was before free agency and the picks were worth more.

Just my 2 cp.

You are Wayne Sevier's grandson? He was a great coach!

I hope that some day the younger fans will be able to experience the thrill of being a Redskins fan that we older fans felt back then.
