qb18_200400 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I wouldnt worry too much about the media's perception of the Redskins. CBS also listed the Jags at 5 and the dolphins at 8. How would we slide by improving our coaching staff. I love getting no respect, becuae watching the media eat their words makes me happy Amen to that! I was loving the end of the year this season because all these damn sportscasters like Cris Carter where just in awhhhh when we made the playoffs. The way the media looks at us, I think, actually helps us out. Because instead of being worried about slacking off and getting no respect, we have nothing to lose because we don't get any respect.

#98QBKiller Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I love getting no respect, becuae watching the media eat their words makes me happy Same here. What the hell do they mean by lack of talent? Winning six games in a row (including a road playoff game) isn't just luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrunellSuperbowl Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Same here. What the hell do they mean by lack of talent? Winning six games in a row (including a road playoff game) isn't just luck. he means lack of talent at QB. He was on a radio show a couple weeks ago. These guys must not know about Campbell.

NoCalMike Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 The End of the Year Rankings should be directly based off how the post-season ended. If he wants to do rankings based on next season, then he should either wait until after the offseason acquisitions and departures, or just label the power rankings "my 2006/2007 predictions" This just seems like an attempt to get cheap shots in on the teams he didn't personally pick to be good this past season.

JWB Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Why are they worried about the Redskins picking up coaches if they are the 16th team? The hypocrisy is almost laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triple6mafia Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 One of the stupidest things I've seen. We beat the Bucs in the playoffs. Eagles didn't make it, Giants got crushed, bears got crushed. Oh well though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinfan133 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 i never liked cbs or their sportsline one bit even bofore being demoted below the cheifs who did not make the playoffs and we won a game and barley lost to the super bowl runners up; we should be 6th or 7th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsFTW Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Prisco is an idiot. Why even put out his opinion when he has been absolutely 100% incorrect about everything for as long as I can remember. He picked the Raiders to win the SB last year and Kyle Orton as rookie of the year. Who even thought Orton was going to get playing time at all since they have Grossman? Thats worse than picking Campbell as Rookie of the year. Who in their right mind would pick a Norv Turner coached team to even make it to the playoffs, much less be the SB winners after going 5-11 and 1-7 in their own division in 2004? This guy knows absolutely nothing about football and probably doesn't even watch any games. A monkey could make better picks than Prisco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gortiz Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Go read the post about the bad predictions on nfl.com, I'm speechless ... amazing. If anyone ever complains about a power poll or a prediction from a media person, I will have to think that YOU ARE THE DUMBEST PERSON ON EARTH! :laugh: this one is a classic First runner-up, Paul Zimmerman, Sports Illustrated: After writing a Sports Illustrated cover story predicting Carolina would win the Super Bowl, Zimmerman predicted Carolina would lose to Chicago in the second round of the playoffs.

Butz65 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Sounds like we're back in the 80's-90's. The only Skins teams that got respect going into a season during Gibbs era I were the 1984 (coming off of a Superbowl) and the 1991 teams (I think Dr. Z actually picked that team to win the Superbowl - may be the only time he was ever right). The 1987-1988 team got no respect going into the season. Even after the championship there were snippets written like - "if the strike hadn't happened the Skins probably wouldn't have been there........". I think Gibbs has proven that great coaching, consistency and a focus on fundamentals can overcome perceived lack of talent. I also think he like his teams to be under the radar (helps to motivate). Keep the hate coming.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butz65 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 May I ask how we have already slid 5 spots despite the fact that we have dramatically improved our offensive coaching. Combined with our championship caliber defense, I would believe that would only move us up, if at all.This media stuff doesn't bother me, but I just don't get the logic here. Plus the talent issue??? It seemed good enough to get us to the second round of the playoffs last season. It just amazes me..... I think CBS was one of the outlets that had us in the bottom 4 of the NFL coming into last season - what more could you expect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefPowhatan17 Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 What a crock, we proved that we were in the top 8, and for them to put the giants and eagles ahead of us is just ridiculous. no respect, but we will win the East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martini Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 The $hi* is deep with this one. My god you need wings to stay above it. That list is the single worst piece of crap I have every seen.

fight_on_til_you_have_won Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Oh come on, the whole point of stupid end-of-year lists like these is to get people riled up and talking about the list.

PortisClinton Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 Ludicrous, but that is okay it is more fuel to the flames!!! One thing is definitely for sure.

BrodysDad Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 The Dolphins are #8 b/c of Saban's great staff, but Gibbs' staff can't overcome talent issues? Gotcha. I thought the exact same thing. This guy can't write a 1,000 word article without contradicting himself. It's pretty sad if you ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCRoughrider Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Let's see, "talent issues" can't be overcome by "spending money on assistants" but "but Nick Saban and his quality staff have this team headed in the right direction" despite their "talent issues" at quarterback? And why would anyone automatically assume that "the Eagles will bounce back"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
