The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

I know DeAngelo has had his issues in the past, but so far in Washington, he's been a model citizen. I have no problem with what he said and to be honest, when I saw that touchdown pass my first response was, "Why wasn't Hall on him??? What the hell is Haslett thinking?"

Still, as I said earlier ...

[quote="Irn-Bru"]To add additional perspective: the Colts just destroyed the Giants last night. And yet the Texans made the Colts look like a mediocre team on week one. This was a very tough opponent, and considering how close the game was, I am feeling good about the way the Redskins are positioned ...

McNabb and Portis are honestly the only ones that I care about. If Fat Al doesn't play, I don't think it has much of an impact on our game plan!

If you don't think Banks should be on the team you're an idiot plain and simple.

I guess I'm an idiot then! Hey, here's something funny for you. ATX, do you remember when I told you that Haynesworth would end up being a terrible pick up for us and wasn't worth the money. You said I was an idiot ...

Okay, I admit it, I'm already in panic mode and the season hasn't even begun. All I keep hearing about when listening to the alleged "experts" is that the Skins have the weakest receiving corps in the NFL!

While I believe that our WR's and TE's combined will still give us a fairly formidable ...

I'd give him up at this point for a luke warm cup of coffee! We need to cut our losses with this clown and give him up. If they offer a 2nd or 3rd round pick, he should be outta here!

has anyone heard anything more on Housh? All the reports I have seen have been unconfirmed and NFL.com is saying that the Vikes have not interest. If he's still out there, I really hope we scoop him up.

Yeah, I want nothing to do with Leinart! He's one of those guys who thinks that he deserves special treatment just because he won a Heisman trophy at USC.

Someone's gotta let him know that being a good college player means absolutely nothing at this level!

I'll have the stream tonight. Going to do something a little different. Here's the link:

You can catch the game here.

Thanks Frank, I'll probably need it tonight. I live in Wilmington, NC and hurricane Earl is on his way! Being a Directv subscriber, as soon as a big storm hits, I'll lose ...

Out of curiousity, does Kelly earn any money from the skins when he's on the IR?

I'm glad we did this rather than cutting him. Clearly he couldn't be on the 53 man roster, so given the option of cut him or IR him, I'll take the IR. This kid could still turn out to be something for us.

That's a major bummer! I really did think he was going to eventually supplant Sellers and be a stud!

There was the Brunell that we all remember and love! Way to go buddy! You got a ring last year riding the pine. Why couldn't you bow out gracefully after that?

Great play call by baby Shanny! Even slow ass LJ was able to get in off of that one!

One decent play! Four or five bad ones!

Banks is really having himself a game. 2 nothing kick returns, a fumbled punt return, and now an offensive PI call.

Yeah, this is kind of a redemption for you and I CaneSkins26. We were the only two people saying that Banks wasn't a lock in the thread about picking receivers. I knew this kid ...

That show's how desperate Ryan is getting to see his starters do something on O! After all his super bowl guarantees he has been watching his O do absolutely nothing with the football. The solution....continue to leave your starters in the game until they're playing against 3rd stringers. Then they ...

That's all true, JSPB... assuming you can find a trading partner... AND that you're willing to pay the price. Bottom line is the same... Win now, pay more later. In other words... "the more successful McNabb is, the less likely we are to find that future franchise quarterback in the draft."

I ...

I think a lot of guys are confused here about Banks. Yes he is small, and because of that YES he may be a 5th or 6th receiver, most likely 6th.

The issue here isnt how well he will play WR but how much upside does he bring to the team on KR and PR. If you can get away with keeping him at 6th, then ...

All things considered, this wasn't a bad first half. Let's all remember that this is a top 5 defense and we don't have McNabb under center. We're moving the ball fairly well and our defense has kept them out of the endzone.

I'm content! I'd be interested to see what it would look like with McNabb ...

Our Run D is SUPER suspect!

Observations thus far about our O. Please lord let Donovan be healthy for every game this season! I don't think Rex is even a serviceable back up! He's gotten lucky on some roughing and holding penalties without which he's a three and out kinda guy!

Is anyone able to see the game yet on ATDHE? I'm still only looking at the blocks. This is starting to concern me!

Vet's point should not be overlooked.

When is the last time the Redskins drafted a true "franchise" quarterback?

While we hope that it will work out, the more successful McNabb is, the less likely we are to find that future franchise quarterback in the draft.

First of all, McNabb isn't a ...
