  1. I like and root for Ron Rivera the person but as a coach?  Geez Louise!  Really?  There is a trait that some great head coaches have in spades and it is humility. 

    Gibbs for one.

    Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it and doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results is the definition of idiocy.

    Actually enjoying this offseason and counting down to training camp.  It's refreshing.

  2. I love Riggo and I guess given the NFL no longer restricts the numbers by position and the fact the NFL rarely utilizes a fullback, you could retire 44 and 81.  Honestly, I feel like those are the only numbers worth considering.  They are already in the ring. we have to remember what retiring means, nobody will wear that number again, you need at least 69 numbers, although only 48 active on game day, 53 on roster, 16 on practice squad.  So, even with Riggo and Monk, you got 92 numbers left to choose from.

  3. This was so well done. 

     

    Now mind you, everything decent to us is foreign and new since the previous regime jaded us into oblivion but the video, the strategy and everything, it had more to it than the pathetic rebranding effort by those who's name will no longer be spoken.

     

    And I love Riggo, Monk and Joey T. but I feel like this is the one you retire to represent the longevity, decency and level of excellence of Green and that era.

  4. Spot on Conn but now the group is stuck in an awkward position.

     

    Leave the current abomination up.

    Take the current abomination down - which will come with a lot of backlash.

    Rectify the situation with the a more apropos statue or tribute to replace it. 

    Does not have to be along the same lines as Kobe but that mannequin thing has to be fixed.

  5. So Washington...here we are lined up for a great draft position as our Christmas present but somehow they will screw this up and leave us a turd in our stocking meaning, they will win.  Please before somebody goes on the whole "they are professionals and want to win diatribe"  yeah, I know, we get it, I am 53 and have heard it all before.  We are fans and we want them to lose but not look as incompetent as they have been doing it.

     

    13 - 10 Commies win, Jets lose and the television viewing public that has this game in their market, also loses.

       No one said to build him a statue. He has been about a 500 coach. With everything that has been going on with this organization during the Snyder years  that is not bad. 

     It sounds like at the end of year Harris will bring in his own people which is good. Whem Harris bought the team it was to late in the offseason to make major changes.

      The changes are coming at the end of the year. If he going to retire at the end of the year anyway they might as well let him finish the season.

    Agree, he did bring a level of respectability and the perception to media and the rest of the league, that at least there was one adult in the room.  I would like to drink a beer or two with Jay Gruden but the perception of the team on his watch was worse.  At least there seemed like there was/is a plan and some direction, a lot of plans and direction don't work out.  This seems to be the case but it's not the absolute farce it was a few years ago, at least in my untrained eyes.

    I watched some of the pregame on Amazon last night and all of the commentators picked Washington to win except Fitzpatrick.  At the time

    I thought he was nuts but it turns out he knows his former team well.

    Yep!  The one guy with insight to that locker room.  Still a lot of carry over from last year.  Who are the leaders on this team?

  8. DL showed up a little bit in the second half as they were getting punked and they do care about their reps to an extent but when you get paid or have been paid, that play every down or eye of the tiger seems to go out the window.  Over hyped for sure.
