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

No longer the Susan Lucci of pro football?

Recognition is not always part of being popular.

For London, I am sure he just wants respect.

He has been named a Pro Bowl alternate 8 times in his 11-year career.

One of the best locker room guys to wear the b & g so I've heard.

Congrats ...

Got enough room in my heart to hate all three.

I actually like Andy Reid and believe he competes even when his running game appears to be a liability.

His lack of a consistent running attack has burned him twice and McNabb is never going to beat you with his arm.

The Cowgirls finally win a ...

Haynesworth's contract has not been the downfall of the 2009 Redskins.

It sounds like AH is trying to give an honest assessment of what he sees as a philosophy difference between himself & Coach Blache.

I am liking the media less & less for their misinterpretations of what is going on behind ...

I'm with Luva Luva and believe if we can't move some of the dead weight on our squad (Santana Moss, Randy Thomas, Clinton Portis) by next year perhaps trying to dangle ey along with one of these players would yield a 2nd or third rounder.

We need another outside linebacker, a CB that can match D ...

The Redskins that won three Super Bowls don't play this NFL game anymore.

We have to accept the fact that John Riggins is not going to suit up and bust off Joe Jacoby's block in classic Riggo style.

Franchise QB's are not available on EBay.

Dan Snyder & Vinny Cerrato should recognize that ...

Campbell appears to be developing some good chemistry with Fred Davis in the redzone & is hooking up with several WRs much to my delight.

We need to see something positive from JC bc if the Skins's start over without rebuilding their line and choose to start Colt Brennan or draft a young rookie ...

Say what you want about the Redskins poor offensive performances this year.

9 points against an awful St. Louis D.

6 against Dallas after their run stoppers held serve.

Caneskin and I went back and forth on a thread yesterday suggesting we lose out to get a better 1st round pick in the ...

C-A-P-S r rocking the Eastern Conference.

Best 30-game start in team history.

Ovie scored twice and leads the good guys in red with 20.

The Great Goon is mad and not gonna take this abuse any longer.

Give em hell Sascha.

Love his mama for backing him up after his suspension ...

I agree with you that Jason is not John Elway and is inept at running the 2 minute drill.

But when in these last three weeks has he been given the chance to win it with his arm?

We stop attacking our opponent' secondary and change our approach which in turn stops our scoring stride.

It's ...

Put everyone's thoughts together and you have the start of what this team needs to improve.

Hiring a GM does make sense, but nothing this team does will be an instant fix.

Jason Campbell is making a strong case to remain here in Woe is Me Washington.

He completed passes to 9 different ...

You have thrown out a lot of stats at us, so feel free to correct me if I mess up a few of my own to point out.

Ovechkin will not be scoring any first period goals for the next two games versus Florida and on the road against Philly.

Still smarting over the game misconduct and subsequent ...

It is bad when you have Sam Huff critcizing London Fletcher for not tackling every player who touched the ball in the Skins' latest version of coulda woulda shoulda performances.

No. 59 had 12 tackles and laid a vicious, legal hit on DeSean Jackson. (Philly's rising star)

Jackson suffered a ...

BMitch spell check dude.

They didn't loose or play to loose.

The secondary did give up those two bombs to Marshall bc Blache had Landry up at the line to help the stop the run.

That poor defensive strategy left the DBs vulnerable to the long pass & Denver capitalized.

Credit Betts for ...

Credit Jose for putting in net work in the offseason to secure at least half of this season's starts.

If he continues his solid goaltending we should be in good shape for the season.

Like any player he will lay some eggs from time to time.

Caps have to be more aggressive with the lead, and ...

Blache wants to focus on football. I have no problem with that.

His changes to the defensive lineup (inserting Tryon in the game in nickel packages replacing Smoot to name one) were very key in the Skins' eeking out a win versus the Bucs last week.

The players have to show heart each game ...

Nice preview of the notable early season performances.

Brooks Laich is becoming an offensive threat not unlike a young Rod Langway.

He is a personable guy. Very much the media's muse.

His fast start reminds me of Alex Semin's hot October in 2008.

Albeit, without the back injury ...

Playing QB in the NFL can be a thankless job.

Especially in DC where the fans have been calling for Dan Snyder's head since he took the reigns from the legendary Jack Kent Cooke.

A quick glance: Anyone want to answer the question of why Cooke is god in Skinland?

He didn't play one lick of ...

Schottenheimer spent 1 season here, because Steve Spurrier wasn't ready to commit to being an NFL coach.

If I recall a majority of fans were supportive of Snyder's subsequent firing & then hiring of both men.

And that was a disaster.

Snyder signs the paychecks folks. Do you think he would ...

"So the blame the QB crowd is demanding that Campbell make more plays. How about they call some plays for him to make?"

Absolutely on the money with this observation.

Jason can't make his case to stay beyond this season as the starting QB if he is not allowed to show us what he can do in a ...

Caneskin,

I don't agree with your criticism of Jason Campbell's perceived lack of execution in yesterday's game.

Campbell is quoted in today' Washington Post saying Zorn does not allow him to change the play (audible) inside the red zone.

We see franchise QBs like Peyton Manning, Brady ...

You know who talks about a soft schedule and winnable games before the first snap are teams that are hoping for better luck next time.

They practice, study the playbook and strap on their helmets each Sunday praying for victory.

But do they truly believe they can win?

The coaching staff ...

Jason's decision making has not improved from last year, which is disheartening for me, because win or lose I thought he would be able to handle the pressure.

I do still say that his coach needs to provide him with a more balanced play selection.

The trick plays were ill-advised and killed ...

Collins has a lot less arm strength was how this sentence was supposed to read.

Said my peace.

"Alright guys let's go get em." Joe Gibbs pregame speech in his second stint as Redskins coach.

Umenyora's play on Campbell was what every competent pass rusher gets paid to do.

It was bad luck if you look at it objectively that Campbell's fumble resulted in 7 points the other way, and Andre Carter's forced fumble on Eli Manning dropped in Lorezo Alexander's lap while he's touched to kill ...

Still scratching my head as to why Boudreau has Jose penciled in as the opening night starter between the pipes.

He won 30 plus games for the good guys in red last season, but was benched in favor of the young, and very green Semyon Varlamov.

The neophyte goaltender performed admirably with ...
