Re: Propping up the sky around here

Good thread. But while I appreciate the attempts by some to stay positive, I can't help but feel we have a disaster of a season on our hands.

We've struggled with the bottom feeders of the league so far, just wait til we hit the real meat of the schedule (especially with no Samuels).

At this point I really think we're looking at a top 5 pick for next year. And this isn't a knee-jerk thought process I've got here, my optimism has been on a gradual decline all year.

This simply is not a good team fellas. And the double whammy is it's not well coached either. I'm not trying to be negative, it's just my honest assessment.

Agreed, my assessment and expectations have gone from pre-season of 10-6 to we'll be VERY fortunate to reach 6-10. I don't feel however that as a result of that every thread needs to become a bitch and moan session where everyone and their mama is getting ripped.

Re: Propping up the sky around here

Great thread.

I feel maxed out on negativity. This is lowest I've ever experienced as a Redskins fan in a loooooong time. I feel like we've hit bottom though. I can dust myself off, look around and see that I'm okay. I'm not here with all the same people I started with... but I'm still a Redskins fan. I have not torn down the redskins paraphernalia.

I'm hoping we're able to discover some line depth, and see what kind of action our offense can generate. I'm hoping the FO acts on what the players are calling for, and we ease up this slippery ass slope...and at least not fall as fast.

When I saw you go neg I knew the board as a whole were likely on the same ship.. I was definitely

I'll still be there every week though, kind of a shame, but hey, it's just 3 hours a week, I spend that on more stupid stuff
