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

So cops in Iowa have nothing better to do than arrest someone who is minding his own business and not harming anyone, just because he had apparently been drinking alcohol and was in the mood for pizza? Ridiculous.

Winning four straight "must win" games against quality opponents is not backing into the playoffs. Two of those wins were against playoff teams, including that win against the NFC Champion Giants in New York. Had the Skins lost one or two of those games, but made the playoffs due to other teams ...

The reason that Fassel has not yet been hired is simple. NO OTHER NFL TEAM IS INTERESTED IN HIM, not even for an assistant position. There is no grand scheme. Snyder can wait as long as he wants and Fassel will be available. This alone is reason enough to give pause when considering whether Fassel ...

I would feel much better if "Fassuel" looked like a younger Sean Connery, the only real 007.

I'll take Gregg Williams as the Skins' head coach, and give me a bag of those champion chips that por-tiz keeps talking about. I bet they're pretty tasty.

Williams will do just fine. He has a reputation as a coach who is tough on his players, yet many Redskin players are overtly advocating for ...

That's interesting; I'll be in section 240 (row H).

So, when can the Boss expect to receive that autographed Joe Theismann game worn helmet from the Charmed one? Any bets on that?

Patience is a virtue.

Trading future picks for guys who most likely will be released after June 1st is unwise.

Just wait and see who's released, and add some depth. I think a lot of the problem was run supper from Marshall in the middle, and the Human Missed Tackle (Holdman) on the outside. If ...

This supposed counter offer is a good thing, because this trade is a bad idea to begin with. Let's hope they really are asking for other players, because even the Redskins aren't stupid enough to go for that. Then we can look forward to the draft and possibly other free agents.

To quote Benjamin Franklin: "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over, and expecting different results." This move is yet another attempt to bring in a new guy and pay him lots of money, expecting that the high profile player will automatically add something positive to the ...

Man, I noticed that it was coming on at 11:00 last night, and I fought to stay awake but I fell asleep right before it started. I'll definitely downlaod it, though. I was 11 years old that year, and it was an awesome time to be a Skins fan. Great memories.

I was reading that scenario in the Post today and just can't figure out why Denver would be willing to give away so much. Is there somebody that they want really badly at the 6th spot?

Very curious, let me know what you think!

I also think that the Broncos are too smart to make that trade. I ...

I think the specific dates of games are announced in early to mid May. NFL.com will start posting information about when the schedule comes out several weeks in advance.

MIKE SELLERS, #45. I asked for and got a Sellers jersey for Christmas, for several reasons. First, he plays hard and he can lay the wood. Second, Gibbs loves him. Third, he's a fullback, and fullbacks are less likely switch teams because they generally don't get offered the huge contracts. I think ...

Well at least they realize that evaluation at the linebacker position sucks. We only accidentally discovered that Pierce was a stud...brining in Barrow was a bust....and Pierce was lucky he got a chance. Letting him go without a viable replacement in the middle (i.e. not having to move a former ...

What is so exciting about this guy? He had average stats in a league with less talented players. Sounds like another member of the practice squad to me.

If we wait until Sunday to show up, it'll be too late!

I will never take a fan of a team we are playing against to a game. I would rather give the seats to a Redskins fan or someone here at THN before I would take a fan of another team. The worst thing is these were fans of teams in our division - these are low life people.

So, would you refuse to ...

Part of the reason the Skins are 4 and 9 is because of those stupid trick plays that Saunders calls. Enough with the reverses and end around BS. The Redskins don't need to be cute, they need to be tough. That's what Gibbs was saying after the Tampa game. They are not in a back yard drawing up plays ...

Well, as a fellow Albemarle High School graduate, I am sorry that things didn't work out for Novak in D.C. You know a team is in dire straits when it's on its 3rd kicker of the year with four games to go. What a disaster of a year.

Man, Ladell Betts ran his butt off yesterday. It is idiotic to suggest that he is part of the problem. Portis has had multiple shoulder injuries and then he broke his hand. That's not his fault.

The Skins offered virtually no pass protection, and even though Campbell is 6'4", his passes keep ...

He is the man. I hope he stays a Redskin for the rest of his long career. I am getting a Sellers jersey for Christmas, and I can't wait to wear it to a game next year. The only other jersey I have ever wanted to wear was Riggins, which is the only one that I own now.

Taylor does indeed play like he's bored. He seems like he's just going through the motions out there. He definitley looked more energetic last year. I read somewhere (the Times, I think) that other players are saying that he misses Ryan Clark. Go figure.

I have been a Redskin fan for over 30 years. I will continue to watch, no matter how bad the product is; I just can't help it. Gibbs brought in Saunders because he is too old and tired to commit the time he feels is needed to run the offense and be the head coach. He said so himself. Brunell needs ...

NO! His QB rating this year is 79. He has absolutely no mobility and gets injured a lot. Even though he's "90%" healthy, and he's "the face of the franchise" in Jacksonville, he has lost his starting job to a career backup.
