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

This is what upsets me about some of these so called "sports writers".... the fact that they make statements based on last year with out looking to what the teams have done in the off-season to improve themselves.

To think that the Dolphins have done more than the Skins to improve their squad ...

That said, I'm extremely happy we are being overlooked in the media, both offensively and defensively. I firmly believe they will be eating crow this coming season. But, even though the media fails to give this year's squad any respect, I'm quite sure opposing teams that we'll face this year are not ...

you know your a Skins fan when you attend Cowpukes training camp in Oxnard Ca. fully dressed in skins gear (authentic Marcus Wash. jersey) and you tape on the front/back of the jersey: Kiss My A$$!!

PS: and you make your wife wear skins gear telling her she'll will not get picked-on, knowing full ...

Foook ESPN and all their pea-brain NFL commentators.

Only guy I respect is Joe T.

It seems like every year I think the Giants will suck, but they're always in it.


I hate to say that one guy beat the skins, but no doubting it, it was frigg'n Tikki who lit us up every damn time we played them.

We're horrible with scatback, cutback runners... and also with backs that catch ...

what kind of "work-outs" do these guys do in Miami? Cause he should be completely limber to do quick sprints and not have any physical problems.

"I'll be ready for Miami [in Week 1, Sept. 9 at FedExField]," he said. "Right now I'm just rehabbing and doing what the doctors tell me to do."


Sounds like CP really does not want to play in any pre-season games. I bet he'll play... like one series at the most. I base it on CP's ability to act ...

Yeah, I've read several articles already this morning about this. What a joke! Does anyone really think Gibbs would say publicly that there are positions on the team where a rookie could step right in and start? Ha! Laughable! Gibbs is just saying the right thing to not offend anyone on the current ...

Yeah, you have to give me a break... I'm from Cali so any call hyping the Skins scoring a touchdown is like taking down 3 Red Bulls.

I really enjoyed the analysis offered by the NFL Netowrk on what the needs are for the Skins and what they should do in the draft.

Parenthetically, Salmon Wilcotts has really good takes, does his homework and should be put on the NFL air more than he's currently used. They should dump "prime ...

As I stated at this time last year, the Skins will go the way the QB goes.

I said Brunnell was the key to our season and he definately had a major impact on how we started.

I was of the opinion that we should have started JC last year, take our lumps and be much better prepared for this ...

And Desmond and Westbrook proof the next great thing may not be.[/quote]



Amen to that!! No wideouts with the 1st pick... please!

Again, how meanh times must we repeat what has been stated 100 times, we need to address our weakness, and that is Defensive Line

Around week 11 when we've ...

DL is a definite need (two would be nice), still not sure that Springs will be here next year but if he is and is healthy we are set @ DB, the loser of the battle for WLB will proved LB depth while a 6th/7th rounder hopefully developes, Boschetti just re-signed Montgomery is going into his second ...

Wow... melancholy flashback Overall however, a decent draft. Wonder what we would have been if we would have drafted the Edge?

PulpExposure wrote:Honestly, the losses from our #9 ranked defense were Ryan Clark and LaVar Arrington.

Here we go with Lavar again!! Will you guys ever stop praising this overhyped, oft injured player?

I ask again: Ask the Gnats if they are glad they had him last year?

You'll hear a goooooooofaahhh!!

1. Mark Brunell {in my humble opinion}
2. Letting Lavar go!

At first I thought you were just a huge fan. Now I think you're crazy.

Are you related to LaVar by any chance?

Ask the Gnats if we should have let him go?

A lot of talent gone to waste, I say.

I refuse to be optimistic about the team as a whole anymore. I'll just have to be surprised when they start rolling.

Still, I agree with you guys about Jason Campbell. I don't know if he'll become the QB we all hope he'll be, but at least he's our guy. We drafted him, he's not a retread or on his ...

Here's Formula 51 for fixing the defense:

Sign the following FAs:

LB - E.J. Henderson UFA - Vikings
CB - Will James UFA - Eagles
DT - Robaire Smith - Titans
**Guys like Clements, Jared Allen, etc. may command too much money; these guys, you may be able to get on the cheap. They had a good year ...

Defensive boss Gregg Williams has some serious questions to face about his unit this offseason.

He's super smart?

more like, our defensive unit has some serious questions about the defensive boss greg williams.

its not like we dont have talent. they wont play for someone they dont respect. ST ...

And people say we need to drop Portis...

Well, if we start Betts, we might be treated to one critical fumble per game!


Listen, the Ram DB made a great play!! The game should have never been that close to have Betts' fumble mean that much.

To me, Betts simply kicked some ass since he came ...
