not sure. Was he anticipating a different route? A 25 yard out route? At that depth, most receivers are continuing down the field

Brian Robinson is a keeper

EB will not return next season. New GM, new coach, new staff.

hopefully. This team has had its fair share of embarrassing losses. Why not add another one

Yeah… do we score a single point today?

I knew defensively we were cooked, but I was hoping, offensively, we could produce something. EB, should honestly just treat every offensive position like the score is 0-0.

This will a tough one to watch. One team so far ahead and successful than the other. it’s going to get bad. After this 3 and out. but yay, draft pick

Me too. However, very unlikely. Good Left Tackles are very rare, which is why they're drafted so high, and highly valued.

I agree with the concept, in theory. However, most GM's hire coaches and people that they have a relationship with- despite how successful, those coaches and front office individuals have been. It also goes the other way: coaches hired at a new organization, often bring in people they're familiar with( despite the track record of said people). The takeaway? crapshoot. I'm not convinced this "model" is really that successful. However, it is certainly worth a try, for the Commanders organization. Our previous model's haven't worked, despite having HOF pedigree coaches(Gibbs, Shannahan) and young, talented coaches( Sean McVay, K Shannahan, Mike McDaniels, Matt Lefluer) I know Snyder receives a lot of disdain(well earned), but it is hilarious how many quality coaches he brought in, to the organization. Incredible.

Generally, at this point in a season, anyone that is "decent" or "satisfactory" is not available. They're already contributing their talents to a team.

Getting “ripped” is the only option when it comes to this organization. Time for another whisky….

Those candidates don’t realistically exist. Any qualified, and coveted potential GM, is most certainly, already employed- and probably not available. The two options you have, is to overly incentivize a qualified GM( with exorbitant amounts of money, because otherwise they’re already comfortably employed) Or: take a flyer on someone that “might”possess some talent, and is available( like a Scot McCloughan, who was available for a reason, due to some personal issues). And the latter model, doesn’t have a high success rate, as we found out. Options are limited, unfortunately

we hired a “good” GM- Scot Mcloughan. he was one of the “best” talent evaluators around. Didn’t work out, for various reasons. Mostly, because he wasn’t really that good at talent evaluation.

trust me, we wont

I have no defense for that. It’s bad

That’s fine. However, having all of that coaching talent within the organization should theoretically have some effect, and lead to a better product. It did not.

The “scheme” has led to an offense that is 11th in the league in scoring. That isn’t “trash.” 32nd in scoring would certainly be considered “trash” 11th isn’t. something else is inherently wrong.

We were 10-6 in 2012. Good, but hardly “awesome.” Sean McVay( SB winning coach) Kyle Shannahan(HC of a perennial contender in San Francisco) and Mike McDaniels( HC and architect of an explosive Dolphins team). All individuals were members of the coaching staff following that 2012 season. And netted…. Nothing. Incredible

It’s almost impossible to actually “tank” in the NFL. Too many moving parts, and too many individuals that want to be paid for their effort.

We’ve had some “good” coaches in the organization, as well. Nothing to show for it

consistency is essential

the Giants seem to be stacking the box quite heavily. Presumably, in theory, that should create some big play opportunities down the field. Edit: however, if we turn the ball over, these discussions are irrelevant

Jesus ****ing Christ this team. It’s so demoralizing to be a fan. Any momentum is immediately destroyed. How do we do this, every Sunday?

The o-line would certainly mind that playcall. very little faith Sam would be protected for all 7 steps of that drop back. conceptually, I love it

Such an odd game. 8 sacks from the defense, the offense is moving the ball, averaging 5 yards a carry. Yet nothing to show for it. Down 14-12. Baffled
