No Dallas week?

[riggofan]

Losing a starter here or there like Cravens and Reed would be manageable.. Losing three d linemen including a first round stud, last years 2nd rounder, our biggest NT, starting corners, starting safety, starting LB, and nearly the entire oline... Is not something any team can just cruise through.


The D was nasty.. The Oline dominate. Coaching and GMs can't replace years of building on the fly with bums on others PS and not miss a beat, thats not how it works.

Keep blaming Bruce and Dan though.. Smmfh

I'm with you 100% man. Fans act like straight up babies sometimes.

OK guys - Dan and Bruce are not the main reason that this franchise is looked at so badly by most fans and other NFL execs - please enlighten us on who you think most impacts the problems this franchise has been going through the past decade?

Granted that Dan and Bruce do not catch balls, run with the ball, miss tackles or do anything each and every Sunday except watch what is going on like the rest of us - please clarify who is most responsible for hiring who coaches here and who is on the roster? Who is most at fault for not having the best coaches and players playing here? Why is it that we should put up with the incredible mistakes of adding Haynesworth and not signing Cousins? there are numerous mistakes made by the FO and the guys in charge of that FO are Dan and Bruce ... why do we have a HC that most think we're lucky to have ONLY because nobody better would be interested in coaching here?

please let us know why we should think that things are going to get better here under these 2 bozos - what have they done recently that makes you think the product on the field is going to get better when these 2 idiots do not have a clue what it takes to manage an NFL franchise

pointing out that we have looked good and been hurt by injuries is not helping - all the franchises understand the importance of depth and continuity - this franchise does not and the ultimate responsibility for that rests with Dan and Bruce

[SkinsJock]

Sean McVay is having a lot of fun as the 31 year old HC of the LA Rams - playing today at the NY Giants - 48-10 with 15 minutes plus to play

it is VERY clear to me that part of the reason he's having such success is because he learned a lot from the mistakes he saw while here ...

these are his keys that he expects from his staff:
1. ACCOUNTABILITY
2. STANDARD
3. RHYTHM

[welch]

I've never defended Little Dan and his pal Bruce, but I'm watching the end of the 3rd Quarter, Rams 48 NON-giants 10. NYG demonstrate that it cold be worse.

[SkinsJock]

Welch, the real problem here is not that things could be worse but that they could easily be a lot better

I'm certainly not a fan of those 2 idiots either and I'm not saying that they are totally to blame for everything here but they are in charge and many of the HUGE mistakes this FO have made are due to their inability to properly manage this franchise

I agree that the O line has improved under Bill Callahan and Munusky and Tomsula have done incredible jobs with the defense but I would like to ask how much better we'd be if Dan and Bruce were more amenable to work with - I doubt that most NFL execs would never have let us lose both Garcon and Jackson or relied on a backfield without at least 1 good big RB - Thompson is V good but we have no real #1 RB

whose fault is it that Cousins was not signed to a LTD much earlier

[SkinsJock]

boy oh boy - all those injuries affected the game last week - wonder what the reasoning is this week when we found a way to win

doesn't fit the narrative does it? - gotta love it

[Hooligan]

boy oh boy - all those injuries affected the game last week - wonder what the reasoning is this week when we found a way to win

Obviously, since they're responsible for the team playing poorly, they should also be given credit when the team wins...

Sooo... Thank you Mr. Dan Snyder and President Bruce Allen for putting together a winning week!

[cowboykillerzRGiii]

The narrative is those PS Oline guys had a week instead of less then 24hrs BRO. Get a grip!!

Chalk up the better game plan with a weak oline to the coaches ya?

What's the narrative? What team has lost its starting oline and is crushing right now??? Enlighten me almighty one please

[SkinsJock]

'enlightening'? HaHa - the season is 16 games and we're at 4-4 - this franchise is only going to see a better, more consistent product on the field and on the sidelines when Dan and Bruce stop interfering with whose playing and coaching here

I'm enjoying the win

[riggofan]

Yeah anybody who watched that game yesterday could clearly see the injuries didn't affect the team at all.

[SkinsJock]

I watched the game I agree that injuries affected the game on both sides

SEATTLE (AP) ... ''We made this so hard on ourselves,'' Seattle coach Pete Carroll said.
''You play with confidence, you feel good about yourself, good things are going to happen,'' Washington defensive lineman Ziggy Hood said.
Kelley finished with two touchdown runs, while Cousins was 21 of 31 for 247 yards. He was responsible for a fumble in the first half, but otherwise took care of the ball against Seattle's standout defense. He also withstood six sacks and a number of other quarterback hits behind a makeshift offensive line of backups and rookies.
''This lets everyone know we can definitely win in the most hostile environment. ... If we can play under these conditions it means we can go anywhere. We can play home, we can play away, we just have to be poised, we have to be disciplined,'' Washington tight end Vernon Davis said.
SEAHAWKS ERRORS
Seattle was undone by its mistakes. The Seahawks committed 16 penalties, failed to find much rhythm on offense and saw kicker Blair Walsh miss three first-half field goals inside 50 yards. Walsh was 12 of 13 on the season, but missed from 44, 39 and 49 yards, the last on the final play of the first half.
''This is the first time this year where I haven't really come through and I got to remember that,'' Walsh said. ''As much as it sucks and as much as I want to be there for my teammates and help us win, I've got to remember I'm capable of doing good things here.''
Those misses and two failed 2-point conversion attempts got the better of the Seahawks.
UNDERMANNED
Washington was minus six starters, including three on the offensive line ...
INJURIES
While Washington had a larger quantity of key injuries, Seattle was without three very important pieces. Safety Earl Thomas (hamstring) and defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson (oblique) were inactive because of injuries. The Seahawks lost running back Eddie Lacy in the first quarter to a groin injury after Lacy was expected to be the featured back Sunday.

and it's on to the Vikings for win #5

if you thought the PS guys on the O line were good after 1 week's preparation can you imagine how great they're going to be this Sunday

please enlighten us on who you guys think most impacts the problems this franchise has been going through since 1999?

what needs to change here for this franchise to gain a little bit of respectability like it used to have?

[cowboykillerzRGiii]

DHall made his first appearance since tearing his acl, after missing 2 seasons tearing and retearing his Achilles... But was a starter on D and our punt returner... Guy is like 35?? Longest tenured skin... And HE was our go to on punts with Crowder out???

Ya injuries haven't touched this team?

7 sacks???

Ya our three starters don't make a difference there either.


I can't man... I can't dumb it down any further...

really!! - that's your answer about what you feel can be done to get this franchise back to respectability? talk about dumbing it down

Sooo... Thank you Mr. Dan Snyder and President Bruce Allen for putting together a winning week!

my issue with Dan and Bruce is more to do with what influence they have over the decision making here as it pertains to the FO and who plays and coaches here

the decisions of adding players like Haynesworth and Griffin; not getting Cousins signed to a LTD earlier; letting both Garcon and Jackson go; not having a better #1 RB - to name a few - are a concern IMO

[riggofan]

what needs to change here for this franchise to gain a little bit of respectability like it used to have?

Win.

OK - I'll wait ... it's only been a couple of decades - he'll figure it out soon ...

If you don't believe the Skins will ever win again, then what are you following them for? Snyder isn't going anywhere.

[SkinsJock]

I don't know how you (or anyone) can be a fan and then just stop being a fan ... the Redskins will continue to be a disappointment to their fans while Dan Snyder continues to manage and be as involved as he has been since he became the owner

Dan Snyder may not be going anywhere - I will continue to hope that he will change the way he manages the franchise - I will continue to hope we'll find a way to win games against better teams, like last Sunday, even with Snyder's mis-management, but it's a shame that he refuses to see how much negative affect he has on the franchise

[riggofan]

I'm pretty sure I will always be a fan of the team, Snyder or not. He just doesn't mean much to me once the team is playing football.

A few years ago I wrote on here that I just wanted to see the team get back to just being competitive. Field a respectable team. Stop being the league laughingstock. I wasn't expecting them to go from the Cerrato/Haynesworth s***show overnight. I think they've largely done that.

[SkinsJock]

If you don't believe the Skins will ever win again, then what are you following them for? Snyder isn't going anywhere.

your twisting of posts to suit your own agenda and Snyder's interfering have something in common - neither is going to stop

I'm not going to stop being a fan or 'believing' & hoping that the Redskins will win every game just because Snyder is the owner and will continue to ensure the Redskins remain a joke of a franchise in the minds of most NFL fans



BIG game coming up - I'm looking for another W against a team that most feel should win

Agenda? Good grief, man. I'm just a football fan, not the Deep State.

I'm sure the well deserved Snyder reputation is going to last for some time, but this is the third consecutive year the Redskins have fielded a competent, competitive team. I doubt we're scaring other teams on a weekly basis yet, but we're not perennial bottom feeders either.

OK - we're not "a perennial bottom feeder" but we're not going to be much better under Snyder's management

we could do better if Snyder would stop getting in the way - that's not happening apparently and I'm not stopping my criticism

[riggofan]

You have no idea what Dan Snyder is doing or not doing and neither do I. You might as well be criticizing the brand of laundry detergent the Redskins staff is using on the team socks.

[SkinsJock]

I agree that we both do not know what Dan Snyder is doing to hurt (or help) this franchise but we do know what has happened to this franchise since he became the owner and we do know that he has made some bad choices regarding players and coaches and we do know that he has a reputation (that he has earned) for being an owner that is very difficult to work with and to work for

OK - I don't know that Dan Snyder is hurting this franchise by what he does or doesn't do but it looks very much like he is hurting the franchise

if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and sounds like a duck ... there's a good chance it's a duck

Dan Snyder is definitely a dick
