Hail To The Redskins!!

[Bax]

I don't think it'll last but for at least one week it brought a smile to my face

[Blak Smyth]

Well last night was a huge dissapointment!
I don't think Grossman has the consistency to be a starter in this league.
He is not terrible but he makes terrible mistakes.
I think we have a better team right now in every aspect than we have had for years, we just need a GOOD QB!

Yeah its a shame that we only have two 3rd string quarterbacks. Bring Doug Williams back!!!

Not looking good for the Skins' when the Cowboys can make that many mistakes and still win.....ugly but a NFC East win!!! Go Pokes!

[CRIMPS]

Grossman has had 2 - 1000 yard passing seasons. 2. Yeah, I would say the Redskins could use a little help in that area.

[Blak Smyth]

Well we held the lead and secured the win, but it was scary. Grossman is just not the answer. I am so impressed with the rest of our team, but Grossman scares the chit out of me when the game is on the line. Maybe he will become consistent over the bye week?

I look forward to playing the Eagles

In the 4Q I had just texted a buddy of mine saying, "It's Dallas all over again," when the announcers started picking up that same vibe: stupid defensive mistakes, bonehead penalties, Rex's inconsistency.... fortunately they hung on and we got the W but it really should not have been that dicey.

And as a bonus we got to enjoy the tail end of the Dallas-Detroit! game

[Blak Smyth]

What a great bye week, NY & the Eagles both loose!
Couldn't have been beter!
We should be able to beat the Eagles this week as long as Vick doesn't rush for 200 yards.
And Grossman needs to put up some early points and keep scoring as opposed to last week when they just stalled on offense.

[Blak Smyth]

What a bad football Sunday!
Damn eagles. Only positive is the Skins had enough common sense to pull Grossman!

BECK ftw

He did drive down and rush for a touchdown, something they couldn't seem to do the whole game.
I would have loved to see him get a chance to make a final 2 minute drive!

Yeah, FTW might not have been the best choice...but at least Rex is gone. That game was painful to watch.

Glad I didn't watch this or else I'd be minus a TV!

You mean this week or last weeks game???

How 'bout them Bills?

[Blak Smyth]

Being a Redskins fan has its downs and it downs.

What do you guys think we need besides a quarterback?
Our O-line seemed to be doing well, before injuries sidelined a starter or two.
We don't have any solid #1 receivers, Moss is just to small.
I really like Fred Davis as a TE, he is a beast.
Orakpo and Kerrigan are a great pair going forward.
Torain and Helu are gonna make a good pair of backs to IMO.

Any other thoughts?

Yah I have bills, should prolly start paying them.
What a peculiar question to ask in this thread Mac.

Our O-line seemed to be doing well, before injuries sidelined a starter or two. I agree, the problem has been depth on the O-line but I suppose ya gotta start somewhere
We don't have any solid #1 receivers, Moss is just to small. Yep
I really like Fred Davis as a TE, he is a beast. Agreed, wish Cooley was healthy for a 2 TE set
Orakpo and Kerrigan are a great pair going forward. Agreed
Torain and Helu are gonna make a good pair of backs to IMO. I'm horribly disappointed that we only had Hightower for a few games--I've liked him since college, I think his running style suits what Shenanigans is trying to do with the offense. I'm not sold on Torain--he's a big, physical back, but that requires a stronger line which is a problem for us at the moment. I think Helu has promise.

Any other thoughts?

[Blak Smyth]

Man what a dissapointing season this is turning into, come on draft pick!
Is it possible that Grossman was wrong about his prediction?
I couldn't watch the game yesterday but from what I gathered it sounds we where doing a good job running the ball in the first half and almost abandoned that in the second?
I see Grossman had like 49 pass attempts????!!!!
And out D gave up 21 points in the 4th?!?!
Grossman fumbled inside the 10 and threw another Grosspick?!

Redskins have thrown 19 interceptions and our apponents average 8 this season! We are negative 13 in turnovers.

Roy Helu has impressed me greatly this season.

What are we gonna do when London FLetcher retires? He is always solid and our leading tackle!
I am thinking the Kerrigan/Orakpo combo is one to really build upon, this could develop into something truly great!

And what is going on with DHall, clearly not playing with the passion of last year!

So, what QB's are out there for the 5th-10th pick you think the Skins might snag?

I am hoping they can some how trade up, but who knows.
I don't follow college to know what looks good other than luck.
I would love to get Luck somehow and try to build around him, but that is a pipe dream. We will prolly trade our first three draft picks for a 45 year old QB who was pretty sharp 15 years ago. Oh maybe they will bring Brunell back for another try?!

Honestly I just hope we can somehow get a decent young QB, somebody that can stay with us for a few years. Alot of people don't like Shannihan either, I think Kyle has some learning to do, and made some game losing calls, but his dad is pretty knoweldgeable. I do not want to see anymore choaching changes for a while.
