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

I haven't been on the site for a long time because watching/supporting the Redskins was no longer enjoyable. There are a host of reasons the Redskins have failed and for me it starts with DS. Until he sells the team I don't expect any change in results. I'm not wasting my time as there are 2 many ...

I read this and thought How Sad, not a good time to be a Redskin Fan.

For all Redskin fans that live in DC, Md or Va. I ask you to read and consider participating in this effort.

No tax dollars for Dan Snyder to build a stadium until certain perks are in place. Thanks

I can't believe how some posters feel about the Skins now...REALLY?? if you're not excited or "what difference does it make?" -- my only comment to those of you feel this way....go the hell away and root for the Pats! They're good and apparently that's what you want. Why would you even "waste" your ...

Neither the team nor the fanbase are showing any energy at all.

I agree 100%, it's like what difference does it make?

Legends and heroes do NOT wear shoulder pads. They wear body armor, carry rifles and don't make millions.

Any THN members going to training camp this yr? I live close enough to go but really not interested.

Though Sonny Jurgensen was on the roster of four playoff teams I don't think he ever won a playoff game and he is in the Hall of Fame.[/quote]

Good point DM. While winning playoff games and the SB are good measures of a QB ability, it is not the only measure as there are very good QBs that never ...

If the Redskins don't think Cousins will return in 2018, I would have let him know the Read Option playbook will be considered in 2017. Might make him a little more interested in getting a long term deal.

Given there was no counter offer from Cousins indicates to me he never intended to sign a long term contract with the Redskins.

Job Gibbs proved you could win the SB with an average QB and Cousins is as good as any of the 3 SB winners. It makes sense at this point to sign him and stop all the BS.

Derek Carr signs $125M contract. 5yrs. @ $25M/yr. NICE. I think KC would look for something in this range.

We need to join Cousins, no more fan support until Allen is GONE.

Yep year 2 the G man defense will have jelled and the passing offense will be awesome. Teams will have to pick their poison and let's not forget they still haven't gotten a RB either. Watch right after the draft Snyder will fire SM and he will go to one of our opponents and win another ring. We ...

Let's hope SM returns sooner than later but if he is not on the job for the combine or the draft he needs to be replaced. In his absence we can hope for the best but based on history expect the worst.

George Allen is the coach who ran Larry Brown 400 times in 14 games when he had Sonny and Charlie Taylor, Jerry Smith, Roy Jefferson, and Charlie Harraway as receivers.

Sonny would throw for 6,000 yards in today's passing league. I like what Cousins is doing but he's not even on the same field as ...

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, DID I SAY THANK YOU!!

B&G, Have you served in any of armed services? Obviously you can't relate to the Love many of us have for the flag and what is stands for. For this reason I have included an article that explains where I am coming from.

They like to refer to us as senior citizens, old fogies, geezers, and in some ...

Agree, a great scrambler would be a better term. The point is he wasn't boxed in by the pocket as he was scrambling all over the field. I loved to watch him make things happen as he was on the move.

Not when he is wearing a NFL uniform, he represents the NFL. For example, as a private citizen he can legally smoke the wacky weed but not as a member of the NFL.

I think we can agree, as a Private Citizen he is would be exercising his RIGHT but as a representative of the NFL I think the Commissioner has a right to tell him this is NOT acceptable behavior.

any of you remember Fran Tarkenton? 6' less than 200lbs, a running QB that lasted 18 seasons. A fun guy to watch!

I write to express my concern about anti-American protests that are taking place in the National Football League, and I do so on behalf of all military heroes and their families.

These honored Americans are insulted by Mr. Colin Kaepernick’s protests of our national anthem and our country. His ...

As a person, he has been a hard worker, smart, successful, benevolent, thoughtful, hospitable, etc All good qualities.

As the owner of the Redskins, I think he always wanted what was best for the Redskins and spent a ton of money to make the Redskins a winner. Unfortunately, he did not have the ...

In Richmond, most days between now and the end of July the temp will be hovering between 95 -100. I sure hope it cools down before the 28th, otherwise practice will be brutal.
