We have all of the pieces, we just don't friggin execute. Its not the coach, its not the QB, it is the execution of the offensive and special teams units.

What is Right with the Redskins???

What is that, an oxy-moron?

To be a Skins fan in the SNYDER ERA is to wear the crown of embarrassment and rule with the rod of sufferring and constant disappointment.

Worst of all is ITS LUCRATIVE BUSINESS TO EXPLOIT THE FANS AND RUN THIS FRANCHISE INTO THE GROUND ANNUALLY. So why would this ever end???

Snyder needs to sell the team. Thats our only hope. Leave us the name and move closer to DC lets build another RFK and send Snyder back to Fantasy Island and his yes man cross eyed Cerrato shouting da plane with him.

You wear your name proudly.

You could have just not said anything. Obviously, there are problems with this team. There are problems with every team. But to act like there are no positives on this team is idiotic. To see only the negative 24-7 is moronic. To fail to see any strengths on this team is stupid.

Yes, two playoff appearances in the last three years is pretty embarassing. The # 1 or # 2 most profitable NFL franchise is definitely "run into the ground".

To be a Redskins fan in the Snyder era and listen to other Redskins fans with little-to-no football knowledge or sense of realism calling for JC to be benched, Zorn to be fired, and Snyder to sell the team after a rough stretch of games is to bear the burden of eternal frustration trying to educate those who don't / won't listen to reality / reason.

A lot of talk, but your saying nothing. Where do I start playoffs, do you think we advanced or play well in those ??? Thats comical. We won 1 game (TY ST)

I'm glad you noted that your not or won't listen to reality or reason when I speak. Look, to call me out...are you standing by Snyder???

Thought not. No skins fan wants to see their team run into the ground. Do you not think they are the laughing stock?? Things are different out of the heart of Redskin land VA.

Are you telling me this team is improving??? Thought not, missing the playoffs is SELF-DESTRUCTION.

What are you in denial about the current state of things???

I'm not impressed by your statements. Its okay dude, if your not going to allow someone to vent their frustration than step aside and discuss it. Simply trying to diss my statements w/o saying anything makes you look dumb especially when you aim it my IQ.

Right, I must be crazy and you must be right B/C YOU SAY ITS SO RIGHT ??

I don't need to convince you. Your going to accept what you will, that much is evident as you ignorantly attempted to punk me.

You feel insulted b/c someone spoke down about the SKINS. Newsflash, you came out of a coma, either from 1991 or when Snyder took over.

Accept it for what it is a family member with 35 + years of season ticket holding and tired of problems not being addressed and they never will iif the problems are being treated as a good thing. Thats not how things change.

Grow up.

Don't even take that tone. What are positives when they are outweighed by the negatives????

If you think that still matters than let me be you accountant give me $5 and I will hand you bill for $100. Will you still see the glass 1/2 filled, Hell to he NO.

Lets be real.....

No candy coating....obviously we have a good run game......I have a proud redskin heritage....thats the point for my rage. I suffer the bad with the good. You don't see me hoping on another bandwagon. Don't speak like I dont deserve my feelings of letdown. Or else were both wrong and were both entitled to our feelings so STFU to both of us, right, IDC.

I will absolutely stand by Daniel Snyder. Look at all the other owners and name 5 better?? What do you base it on?
I will say I don't like every FO move, but ...

DS wants our team to win.
DS is willing to put his money into the assets that he believes will bring a championship to the Skins
DS has made costly mistakes, fans have suffered, but he has learned.
DS cares about his players, I saw him at Canton watching the ST tribute, he cares, and he listens
DS cares about the fans (yes we pay him lots of money), but he has tried to make most Redskins experiences better.
DS meddles at times but it is his team.
DS has not disgraced what it means to be a Redskins fan. Instead every move is to embolden the Redskin name.

Is DS perfect far from it, but if you can name more than 5 other owners you would rather have, I would be surprised.

I'm not saying nothing....we made the playoffs 2 of the last 3 years, most teams in the NFL can't say that.

You're damn right I stand by the guy. Is he perfect, No. Has he made mistakes, absolutely. But he's a fan, like us. He grew up like many of us did watching the Skins in the 70s and the glory days of the 80s. The guy wants nothing more than to hoist multiple Super Bowl trophies. CRedskins made a great post (#72) that I agree with 100%.

We weren't a laughingstock at 6-2. We weren't a laughingstock when we made the playoffs last year. The Redskins are definitely NOT a laughingstock. Detroit is a laughingstock, the Raiders are a laughingstock, the Bengals are a laughingstock.

Over the last 5 weeks, of course not. But are we imploding to the point we need to call for Snyder to sell the team???? Of course not.

You appear to be very insulted because someone challenged your ridiculous post. If you're a 35+ year fan then you should know the history from when Snyder took over. Let me ask you a few questions, are the Skins better off now than they were in 2003? Is Snyder a better owner now than 5 years ago? Here's the most important....If Snyder did sell the team how many years do you think it would set the franchise back from being a playoff contender?

Wow, quote Mr.Redskin and use the forum to attack his views while wasting everyone's time and thread space over it.

Why don't you directly PM him or stop quoting people making your attacks public??? His statements aren't aimed at you! Thats not the way to handle disagreements. Grow up.

Too many of you girls are on the rag and catch feelings about statements not even directed at you. Grow up. Stop consoling and censoring your members viewpoint.

We can pop up anywhere at anytime.

That is honestly the most disturbing comment I have ever read.

You think...lol...that b/c Snyder is making money.....lol....that somehow you or I but rather all of us should be happy during the season/after the season that the goal is to put money in his bank account other than stacking trophies by the podium for pressers than you have done your self in

....when the Giants held up that super bowl trophy were you boasting we are profitable ? or every team in our division has been to the SUper Bowl since us that its cool, we have a lucrative team???

B/c that is what your saying in your statement to me as you sit there with a smile like you dropped some knowledge.

I say your the one who needs to be educated or re-educated if you think you have already obtained this enlightenment and ask yourself....

Does the statement "Snyder is running this team into the ground" pertain only about money??

If you say it is all about money than you accept,forgive,and continue to serve/protect Snyder or any notion to exploit the fans hearts and dedication to simply become a football merchant at any costs.

Its not fair to call me out. I have points to make and I prefer to make those among our community and be challenged intelligently.

Some people on this site like to degrade people who want Campbell benched or have another strong opinon..they also claim that because you feel this way you have no football knowledge or you dont know anything even about football.. which in most cases they have never played football on any level except Madden.

I don't think people are calling you out for giving your oppinion or making a point, but you are obviously going against the whole purpose of this thread. This is probably right now the only thread where something remotely positive is being said about the team. Yet, you decide to bash the team and just about everyone for giving a positive opinion. I know it's hard to find positives right now, but hey there are worst teams than ours (i.e. Detroit Lions, Oakland Raiders, etc., etc).

No one is challenging your right to make a point. However when you make a post like you did in a "What's RIGHT with the Skins" thread, expect to hear from those who have an opposite opinion especially when all you're throwing out is doom-n-gloom with no reason, thought, or facts to back up your points.

To the "running the franchise into the ground comment", let me "Drop some knowledge" as much as many fans love to bash Snyder and the way he markets and makes money for this franchise, keep in mind without the level of profitability we have the FO would not be able to jump on high $$ FAs or re-sign our key players to big $$$ before they hit the FA market. Yes, it sucks as a fan to pay high ticket prices and merchandise prices, but to make sure the franchise only needs to make decisions based on yearly cap numbers rather than overall profitability (see Bills, Bengals and others), it's a necessary evil. So sorry if it was the "most disturbing comment you've read", but it's reality.

I couldn't care less how much money Snyder puts in his pocket or radio stations / amusement parks he buys, all I care about is that the Skins never have to worry about not spending or doing something to help the team get better because of a money issue.

And....if you look at the Giants, Patriots, Cowboys, Steelers they are all very profitable franchises.
