I dunno, i'm gonna stand over with the pessimistic crowd until I see actual improvements. For Quill Quinn and the rest of the coaching staff, if they can actually 'teach & preach' the players then things may turn around fairly quickly, but if they all turn out to be the " ok lets see we're at 2nd & 7 lets call the play that will get the 1st down" then it will be a looooong season. The coaches that know how to find and attack opponents' weaknesses, go against the norm on play calling, use the tream strengths to their advantage and strategize are the ones that find success. I'm glad that Myenemy is gone because he was the product of a gifted QB; he didn't have the above skillset. Quinn was exploited as well in Dallas so it won't be a surprise if it ends up being the same ol' same ol'...

Um, but we still have the building! A new stadium would in fact completely remove the "Pint-Size" stench totally. His stench is worse than 50 yr old smoke stain, ya just can't get that crap out...

Fresh off of my mandatory vacation, counting the minutes until Rivera and every single person associated with coaching, scouting, trainers and cooks all are given their PERMANENT vacation. This is one of those " huh?" games where its a close battle down to the wire, with the Commies pulling off the big upset. Of course the stadium will be filled with blue, as you will see too, a game between 2 teams who don't like each other, it seems, and as the balls will be flying in the last game, we will probably all see the same, Rivera calling a surprising scheme, making us all relive the past in a dream, giving pause for a doubt, that beating Dallas is what its all about...

Oh, Ron Rivera is just the most awesome wonderful brilliant-minded coach this team has ever had! Oh he is just the best at everything, people should do exactly as he does and maybe if they're lucky they might be half as great as good ol' Ron Rivera. I'm seriously thinking about going to my city council meeting and demand they change my street name to Ron Rivera Ave. just so I can have a beaming smile every time I drive home or leave, as long as I can see that wonderful reminder. There, fixed it ! Edited just now by skins island connection

I believe that a 3-2 final score sounds most likely, but aw what th' hell. Jests 24 Doinks 9 Oh, Ron Rivera is just the most awesome wonderful brilliant-minded coach this team has ever had!

Because back then we had some new guy named Joe Gibbs, who put together the best qualified coaching staff, and those coaches taught the linemen all the nuances of playing the position, taught them 'influence blocking', and gave them motivation. The head coaches we've had over the last 20+ years featured the Verizon Friends and Family plan, where they'd bring their failures of assistants and family members and give them jobs that are very difficult if not impossible to get. { I do have to give the Shannahans a nod though, Kyle seems to have put together a nice group of players } Players, and coaching staff, need to be held accountable. Guys wanting to come here just for a big payday needs to be shunned. Earn their money.

OH BOY, another "coming off a bye " game. Same **** different year. I picture Sean McVay standing across the sideline from Lifeboat Ron, and envision coach Klein looking across at Red Beaulieu and making puppydog sounds, baby gotta poo poo? A wittle poo poo? Wittle poo poo? Then Ron's pants completely balloon out from blasting out 3 plates of cheese enchiladas and the brown stains and drips begin oozing onto his shoes. Rams 43 Ders Duhs 13

Last 3 games, LAST. 3. GAMES. This team has given up 121 points. 45 to the Fins 45 to the Boys 31 to the G-men. I think the name defense should be changed to the " Opponents Secondary Offense".

Dang, there's like 4 others in the water, waiting their turns. Is this what they call ' docking" ? And to think, the lady never once even considered their noses to be useful! This was no accident at all, it was definitely on 'porpoise'... I'll be here all night folks !!!

There's the typical dolphin that most visualize, like Flipper or something resembling a porpoise, then there's the dolphin fish, a.k.a. Dorado or Mahi Mahi, which is what I can only describe in 3 words; De-Li-Cious ! Ehh, they're still pissed about SB XVII...

mmmmm, some dolphin with asparagus buttered and lightly spiced sounds yummy yummy yummy { the actual dolphin fish, not flipper }. Unfortunately the Dolphins will have the Commanders slow-roasted with garlic and beer. BUT, their HC knows about karma and running up the score; last time they did that they lost the following week { I believe } so he will keep the game reasonably non-nuclear blowout-style. The team will prob respond the same way as the last 4 weeks, fall behind early by 2 scores and struggle to keep the game within 16. Flippers 47 Flip-Wilsons 23

DING DONG THE WITH IS DEAD! About time this guy was shown the door, and we all know it wasn't Rivera's call, it was Harris'. A step in the right direction; show the team that the owners do care which should pick up the morale but the job isn't over. next up: 1. Ron Rivera 2. Eric Bienemy 3. O-line coach 4. LB coach 5. Anyone on the staff who is related to any of these clowns 6. Scouting dept. ALL of them.

I've been questioning the scouting dept for years. The NFL is all about speed and agility, the old fashioned 'brute force' 270+ lb LBers are over with. I'd be happy to see only 1 LB and the others safeties, and now that there's an opening for that dept maybe they get someone who can actually play the position and someone who knows how to teach it.

Today's game with Dallas was yet another reminder of the lack of teaching this turd is doing. The bland version of Tampa 2 with slow LBers and safeties who can't read a WR's motion was a recipe for disaster. I'm really hoping the next DC has a 4-6 defense with different looks; of course the LBers now have to go since they are slower than the USPS.

Rivera knows the heat is at full blast right now, but he's set and stoic. Besides, this team is not remotely sniffing the playoffs, and RR doesn't care. Howell, if he's gonna be the QB in 2024, should be benched, maybe sent to QB camp or else the line will get him hurt long term, and the frew stars on this team should take the season off because a bad injury is just around the corner.

I had to turn off the tv for fear of destroying it. One thing certain, Howell needs an actual QB coach. This cat has no clue about pocket pressure. Took some big sacks for large yard losses, putting the offense in 3rd & miles. There were a number of plays where Sam just held the ball too damn long while WRs were actually open; it could be the plays called that took so much time to develop but he's gotta get the ball out sooner. Bienemy can go with Ron and Del Taco FAIC; there were some really moronic calls, especially on 3rd & 4th downs, its as if he feels the o-line is top rated. Defense, well, you know; worthless. It was almost like Dallas was playing super conservative for awhile and the defense said 'hey throw deeper balls your guy's open'. Safeties need coaching as well, taking bad angles exposing alot of the field to a WR who has a beat on the defender. I would say that this problem goes a little beyond coaching, no mention of the scouting dept; they should be shown the door as well. The teams with good records have players who are quick and agile, while our LBers look like they're running in 3 ft. of water.

From play calling to defense, this team is lost. The secondary have no idea how to box a WR, safeties are taking wrong angles exposing 2/3 of the field to a WR who has 2 steps on coverage. The defense itself isn't playing aggressive, they're playing reactionary defense, which means offenses dictate what they're gonna do and its up to the defense to adjust and try to defend it.

Great job, EB, cram the line together and try to run through it. The same line that is the worst in the league. Absolute GENIUS! barf

Dallas loves executing corner blitzes, and I think Howell will be sacked at least 3 times from corners alone. Rivera will leave permanent footprints in the sidelines since he will be statuesque. Del Taco will be fantasizing about being a Cowboy player all game and smile when Dallas defense makes a big play. An 'unknown' Commander player will go over and pee inside the MVP turkey, knowing they will not be getting any of it. Post-game 1 or 2 players will become verbally pissed off and say something negative about coaching. And I will be in continual head-shaking at how embarrassing the o-line is.

I got that weird feeling { maybe gas } that if the team stays relatively close in the Dallassholes game then Rivera will prob make it to the end of the seaon. But if its a blow-out, embarrassing style, then Friday will be his day of seeing the door. I'm at odds with myself; on one hand I want to see the team play good/win but on the other hand i'd love to see RR and Del Taco both get the boot on the day after. Hec, just leave Del Taco at the stadium in Dallas; he's prob too dense to know how to get back home so its a win-win!

The all black unis is an utterly complete failure. Nothing resembling the natural royalty of the burgundy & gold. Leave it to Tanya or whoever to mess with something til its broke, and the black unis are a broken disaster. Burgundy & gold. Thats how Theismann did it, thats how Riggins did it, and it worked out very well. I'm impartial to the older look with white over red and red over white like the ones during the mid-80's, and if they wanna get creative go with the all-white with heavy doses of red and yellow { or burgundy and gold } like they had around the 2005 timeline. Oh, and going back to EVERYTHING original wouldn't be a bad idea either.

If I were Harris i'd remove Del Taco from is current job and demote him to waterboy; make his sorry ass run out on the field every commercial, every break, and for once do something that actually helps the team, just for the sheer embarrassment and enjoyment purposes. Then cover his toilet paper with itching powder for good measure; see him walking around with brown fingers...

Gee, you REALLY do enjoy self-inflicted misery...😛 By halftime I will be outside in my yard painting individual blades of grass, but the tears keep making the paint run...

I bought some wax for my truck today. Its gonna 'magically' apply itself. These players are lacking quality coaching; getting all the draft picks they want does no good if they're not taught properly.

They need a WR who is taller than 6'2. McLaurin is a good WR, not great but good, but with a taller WR who has long arms and/or long strides it would compliment him alot. If not that then get a guy who can flat out run. The current group have no clue how to juke anyone, they start out at full speed then have to slow to make the cut, and coverage is right there with them, and it seems that their route running is getting predictable. They should have 2 groups of WRs, rotate them in and out, mix them up, always send one of them on a straight line to the goal line to draw off the safety and tire them out in the process.
