Re: Training Camp 2017
The media is obsessed with us losing Jackson and Garcon. Do these idiots know that we invested in what many think was the best wr in the draft last year? Do they realize that we have Pryor as well. Potentially these are better wr's than Garcon and Jackson? Jackson is just instant offense..can't block, gets hurt, time to move on. Also do these assholes mention Crowder and Reed? I just don't get why the so called experts think we're going to take a step back. Personally I think this offense may explode this year.

Re: Training Camp 2017
The Skins official site post players tweets all the time and most of the time they are not football related or personal. That would bug me as a player.

Re: Training Camp 2017
the first preseason game is Cowboys and Jerry going into the HOF...think I gonna pass watching. But I still should be able to smell the pile of bullshit at the podium here in Richmond when that pasty white bastard speaks.

Re: Training Camp 2017
Two winning season with less than 10 wins. Backroom drama. Teams that appear much more stable and/or better run in the same division.
If we have a 10+ win record this season, maybe we get some respect. Otherwise, if you weren't a fan, would you bet any money on the Skins improving?

Re: Training Camp 2017
Skins are always an easy target to pick on, while the Cowboys and Giants are media darlings.

I am not going to pick anyone in preseason I never have .And with that IMHO.....the entire NFC East has improved greatly(or bigly for you chico).I could see the Eagles and I can see the Skins ,the Giants improved on Offense but to me "STILL" no freaking LBers and I am still not 100% bon the McAdoo bandwagon yet.As for Dallas I thought they over achieved last year.NFC East is wide open.

Re: Training Camp 2017
This time of year is when all the propaganda comes out about how great your team is doing in training camp.
Week One; hello reality check skins fans.

Re: Training Camp 2017
The Skins self destructed in a few games last year. Until we put together solid steady performances the media and fans will always put us in the wannabe category. We easily could have had a 10 win season last year, but we didn't.
I am optimistic about the year, but the Skins have to do it on the field every week to gain any real respect. |

Re: Training Camp 2017
I agree on the Eagles. I think Kelly did a LOT of damage to their roster, basically leaving them with no D, no O-line and no depth anywhere. Jeffrey is at least a legit starter, T. Smith is pretty much a one trick pony.
Not sure why they get the love, but, whatever. We'll see how it all shakes out Sept. 1. When it comes to the Skins, I think a lot of the talking heads are seeing the FO meltdown between Scot McC leaving and the KC debacle. It's the freshest things in people's minds. Most of their moves have been under the radar and the "Hey we are improved!" cry gets a bit old when it seems like the same old same old. I am hopeful that this is good team, but it needs to stop the run, stop the long ball and punch it in inside the 20 consistently before I start buying into the pre-season trope that a corner has been turned.

Re: Training Camp 2017
Just turned on NFLN and saw that Reed is seeing a specialist for his toe. There's no timetable for his return. That doesn't sound good at all.
