Re: What Is RIGHT with the Redskins?
Positives:
Great *young* secondary Campbell McIntosh Youthful depth at WR Youthful depth at DE/DT and LB Other than that, I don't really see any other positives for us beyond this season. Sure we've got talent in places, but most are aging, and their talent will diminish quickly -- I wouldn't call them positives. Of the youth we have on the DLine, it's doubtful any of them will be world-beaters. But, they could be excellent backups if they stay with the team. Overall, I think we're in good shape. If we could trade down in the draft, and pickup some linemen in the 2nd and 3rd rounds, it would be a great improvement.

Re: What Is RIGHT with the Redskins?
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.

Re: What Is RIGHT with the Redskins?
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 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.

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.

Re: What Is RIGHT with the Redskins?
We are starting to see that we need to revamp our lines.

If only Haynesworth wasn't going to command mad money this off-season.

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. Quote:
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.

Re: What Is RIGHT with the Redskins?
There are plenty of threads where all we do is bitch and moan about all that is wrong with the Redskins. This one was designed to look at some of the positives and things that we have that we can build on. We're all frustrated and rightfully so but we can't simply look at the glass fully empty. If you're unable to then fine (sorry you're incapable) but don't waste your negative energies on this thread.

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.

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. |
