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

This stuff never ceases to amaze me:

They use a model that takes into account who they have played this season and how they did at the end of last season. I believe that it also uses modifiers based on wind direction, temperature and humidity. There is also a variable for how well the author ...

Holy crap - I don't think I can take many more of these comebacks! 50 minutes of depression followed by 10 minutes of utter delight.

Favorite moment? Seeing the "Dan Snyder bought the Redskins but we OWN them" sign seconds before Moss's first TD reception. Sweet victory!

The three Dallas fans ...

If we don't keep our new kicker around once Hall is back on his feet then I believe we'll see Dyson back in Burgandy and Gold. We're lacking a big possession receiver for crossing patterns and I think Dyson could serve that role. Then again Joe Gibbs intimated that he still thinks highly of Antonio ...

I was at the game and watched John Hall warm up. I thought something was wrong at that point - he was accurate but didn't have any distance on his kicks. This sucks because as today demonstrated, we will need a good kicker. Chandler will be back for Monday's game. How do you make room? Probably ...

This damn Pez dispensor is empty!

I personally believe Broughton and Cartwright will both make the roster. Broughton because of his skill now and major long term potential and Cartwright because he has demonstrated how solid a player he is. Also Joe Gibbs really likes Rock and has singled him out as a true Redskins style player. I ...

My pass is in the Orange lot - was offered to me with the club seats we bought. Great lot, perfect for tailgating, and leads to a quick exit AFTER the game (not during the 4th quarter when most of the other club seat knuckleheads bail out).

Santana, is winning division games going to be a key to the Redskins chances of making the playoffs this year?

No, I believe that winning non-conference games is much more important. I mean, anyone can beat teams in their own division, there are only three of them.

Santana, boxers or briefs?

I'm with JP on this one. The ONLY situation I see where Sean Taylor gets cut from this team is if he goes to jail for three (or more) years. The trial will likely be next year, after the season is over. If he is convicted next year the Redskins will have the ability to get a significant portion of ...

I guess I have a question, what has Sean Taylor done as a football player other then become one the best players on our team? ...

If football was all about athletic prowess alone then it would be no big deal. Football is a team sport. If he's not going to these OTAs then he's not working on ...

I want to look at this from the other side, Sean Taylors. If at the age of 22, someone stole two of my ATV's and I knew who it was, I would also have gone over and kick their $$$, witout the gun of course. I am a few years older now and I have out grown that, but when I was 22 years old I did ...

I think Sean Taylor has become a poster child for young athletes that think they are above the law. Any of you know any people growing up that had parents in law enforcement? One of my friends as a kid had a cop for a dad and he always thought he could get away with murder. Granted, this is a large ...

stwasm, sounds to me like nothing Snyder does will change your opinion of him. Did he make mistakes when he started his ownership of the Skins? Yes - and he admits that in the above interview. Do I think that he's doing a little creative rewriting of history (or at least re-interpreting it) in the ...

MW and the helmet as well as Gus playing butthead are right up there for me.

Dan Turk's missed snap in the 1999 playoff game against the TB Bucs. As I recall it was in the remaining seconds of the game and it would have tied us up and sent it into overtime.

Hard to be too critical of Dan ...

Not wanting to start another needless thread, I would love to add to the aforementioned. I have been holding in my frustration for a while now and its time. I would like to add myself to the list of people who are sick of everyone freaking out because we lost this person or that. Am I a little ...

I for one will really miss Smoot. You guys that are dumping on him because he didn't live up to the "core Redskin" title for a mere $800K are not looking at the whole compensation package. If it was just a difference of $800K for the signing bonus I seriously doubt that he would be going to the ...

He'll be getting an average salary of $6M over the first three years - much less than the Skins offered. To match it would have made a bad cap situation worse. We've been conditioned to think lately that it's all about the signing bonus. It's not.

yeah, well Ramsey is going to embarssas all the Redskins fans around the world on National TV.

That is a sad and pathetic statement from a "fan". I personally like Hasselback but I also like Ramsey. Why? Because they are REDSKINS. I am a Redskins fan. I go to the games. I'm hoarse for days ...

Check TVGuide.com and put in your zip code then check week to week. That's what I have to do here in NC. I usually know if it's a head to head time slot with Carolina Panthers, I will be going to the local pub.

Thanks NC43Hog - that did the trick! I get to see the game!

PS - thanks DESkins ...

I heard an interview with Greg Williams and he said specifically that because Taylor missed some practice time early in the week with an illness that Lott was practicing with the first team and that was the main reason. He also mentioned that they saw some things on film that made them think the ...

Folks,

I am going to be spending a fair number of weekends in Bethany Beach, DE (Sussex county) the next few months. There is Mediacom cable at the house, basic package. For the life of me I can't find any indication of whether or not they will carry the 'Skins games that aren't national. Anyone ...

...screaming my lungs out. I went to the VT/USC game and the place was completely jammed. Since I've been going to FedEx Field (3 yr season ticket holder) I've never seen it that full - not an empty seat in the place. We need to make that happen on Sunday!

The only problem is that the Redskins will have the 32nd pick in the draft next year.

I voted Dallas because I agree with Skin Diesel's comments about bandwagon fans. Eagles are a close second. Interesting that the Giants have gotten NO votes as of this writing.

...Most of the Skins live near Ashburn...Loudoun and Fairfax county...makes sense since they work at Ashburn 5 days a week....

There are quite a few of the players that live here (Ashburn, VA). Most locals give them their privacy because we're so used to seeing them.

About 6 years ago I took ...
